Hello - I'm a bit poorly :-(

Oh dear, has she cut Milo's ears off :-0

No thank you - I value my ears :-D

Sue next door could do it when she does Milo

I've still got hair, in fact I need a haircut. :-)

LindainHerriotCountry Report 21 Feb 2015 20:39

OH is moulting as well, in fact he has very little hair left on top?

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 21 Feb 2015 20:22

I think the Duchess does realise that she is not at home, but never makes reference to home anymore.
She is happier, more settled somehow, and rather distant. I think this has to be the effect of medication.

Milo hasn't actually had a haircut, but he is moulting like mad, so Sue has to brush and groom him every day.

OH is delighted to be the scary monster because he gets to doze and only has to make a scary noise once in a while while I have to play non stop

I am glad the Duchess is happy. In an odd way it is better as she doesn't realise she isn't at home

I saw Milo had had a haircut, he must feel the cold

Linda you do have such a wonderful start to your days in London - pretending to be a Queen, and acting along with the story line.
How does OH feel about being the Scary Monster? :-D

I was once described as The Old Pony, by my grand daughter when I said I was too old to play horses on the beach :-D

The Two Bridges looks good for our final stay on the tour.
I will not be competing for the four poster :-0

Been a bright sunny day here, but very cold. Tomorrow's forecast looks awful, so I visited the Duchess this afternoon.
She was happy, but largely away with the fairies.

I am glad that you enjoyed your extra night in Wales Tec, but now it is time to move on to our last stop

Warren House Inn, Postbridge, Dartmoor. where the fire has been burning since 1845

http://www.warrenhouseinn.co.uk/

You will be pleased to hear it is only a 2 hour 47 min drive, so plenty of time to ejoy a hearty Welsh breakfast before we leave


Waren House does not have accommodation, but fear not, I have found somewhere nearby with good reviews, so we shall spend our last night on tour at

http://www.twobridgeshotel.uk/

They have a nice selection of rooms, I like the look of the Premier room with the carved oak four poster. I will not hog it, however, if someone else wants it, that will be fine

I think it is illegal to disturb graveyards Tec :-0

We had a straightforward journey home, we waited until the rush hour was over. We got back at 11.40pm

I had a lovely late sleep this morning :-D I missed the morning games when Eve comes into our bed at some stupidly early hour. They are usually along the lines of

"You can be daddy teddy and I will be mummy teddy and this is baby teddy"
or
"You can be a queen and I will be a princess and granddad can be a scary monster"

Grandad just turns his back and goes back to sleep, making grumpy noises as required, while I act out the scenario complete with all the voices

I expect Eve thought it was exciting having to change trains, quite an adventure for her.
Glad that she liked the museum.

Cold and grey here today, and very cold, well I think it is.

Pleased that we are having another night at Plas Llanmihangel so that gives me a better chance to dig up my ancestors. :-D

Have a safe journey home Linda,

We have had an exciting adventure out, visiting a children's museum. We were very intrepid because there were rail problems this morning,so we ended up having to get four different trains to cross London.

The museum was good, but heaving with kids as it was half term :-(

We only had to get two trains on the way back, we played I Spy all the way, Eve was remarkably good at it

We are going to drive home tonight,so I won't be online.

We can stay another night in Wales, Tec is in charge

I suppose I'll have to do the bare minimum in the house so I better get moving Sylvia before I have a day of rest :-D
