Morning friendlies, (_)? (_)? (_)? (_)? tea or coffee anyone?

Wow Stephen, great total, your family should be very proud of themselves.

Pauline I'm too stubborn to give up haha!

Liz, I do hope you have a great holiday, make sure you get some rest and relaxation.

I wonder if Rita is ok, very worrying knowing how poorly she is and not knowing if anyone is there with her.

Wishing you all a pleasant and safe day.

Hi all,

Marilyn, hope your finger heals soon and the bruises fade quickly, did you use arnica, I find that gets bruises out fast and eases the pain.

Hope Rita is ok and she has lots of support.

Huia, hope the move to the new shop goes well and your 'haircut' is a good 'un, looking forward to the pictures.

Well done Stephen to your family for raising the money, many charities are losing out now people can't afford to help as much so it's good to see such effort from your people.


I will be going away on Friday am till early October so might not have time to come on here much as lots to do to get things ready for the off. Looking forward to warm weather, the forecast in Crete is good, and it's warmer there at night than it is here during the day lol At last a chance to wear summery clothes.

Take care everyone

Will report back on my tan and weight gain, I just love Greek food

love to all

Morning all. It seems quite calm here this morning, the gales have died down. We've got pink sky........ that's not a good sign.

Still no Rita? I hope she's not in hospital again. Does anyone have her phone number?

Good to see Jean is still posting, keep fighting, Jean. <3 <3

Marilyn, have you strapped your finger up? I hope Pete is doing all the work for you :-).

Huia and Stephen put me to shame with all the work they do for charity.

Stephen, your family have done really well raising that money, well done. How do you pronounce the name Eilidh?

I bet Linda's husband is wondering how he had time to go to work, he'll be worn out trying to keep up to Linda :-).

Where's Shelly?

Going to have my coffee now before I start on my son......... he's just let me know he's ready for his coffee!

A Wee Chuckle for the day

A Sunday school teacher asked her little children, as they were on the way to church service,

"And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?"

One bright little girl replied,..........

"Because people are sleeping."

Jean,

Yes ! That's one of my bonnie wee lassies, my grandaughter Eilidh age 7.

We go away every May for a weekend, that weekend we were in Fife. Eilidh and her younger sister Darcey had a couple of hours on ponies. They loved it. :-) :-) :-)


It's nearly time to watch a bit of telly. I usually have an hour or so from 9pm........if there is something worth watching. And tonight there is.It's about a Scotsman who photographed the American Civil War. Looking forward to that.

Night all !

Hello everyone, have you had a good day?

Huia, have just read my post from this morning, haha, missed a couple of words out, it's my age. should have said feed the horses.

Marilyn hope you enjoyed your trip to town.

Still no news from Rita, I do hope she is ok and has someone looking after her.

Stephen is that one of your Granddaughters on the pony.

Any news of the baby Linda.

Oh it's already starting to go dark here, I dont like the dark nights, cant spend as much time with my horses.

Am going to have a nice hot bath now, then go to bed with a book, think my age is catching up on me.
Good night, God bless, angels on your pillow.

Hello to others as you pop in
I hope Rita is OK too. <3 <3 <3 <3
Had a good day at the County Show. On my feet for 7 hours hardly sat at all. Then twelve to feed in the evening too, lots of help from Hubby and our son helped with the BBQ. Everyone had plenty to eat and drink.
Our daughter in law hasn't had the baby yet. She went for a walk yesterday and had curried chicken for dinner, no change so far.
Our daughters friend had her 2nd baby yesterday a 9lb 10oz boy. Narural birth and she is tiny normally...................... ouch.

Out to lunch today with friends and our daughter and 3 littles included.

Congratulations to your family Stephen you must be proud.

Have a good day everyone

Good morning everyone, hope you had a restful night.

Looks like a week of sunshine and showers here, suppose we should expect it now, though a few more weeks of summer would be nice.

Stephen, congratulations to you family on raising so much money, it's nice to hear of a family doing so much for a charity.

Wonder how Rita is, haven't seen her on here for a few days, I do hope she is getting better.

Did you all have a good weekend? hope you did.

Am going to make a cuppa then go and feed and muck out the stables.
Take care and stay safe ~~~~~~~~~~to all.

Today was my last rostered day serving in the Hospice shop, although I might go in another day this week to help out if they are busy. Friday will be the last day for selling. On Saturday we are having a party in the shop.
