Didn't think you was for a minute :-)

Sorry im just in the middle of having a chopsticks lesson im riveted...please believe me when I say im not ignoring you :-D :-D ;-)

I ran out in my jimjams, thats enough to frighten anything off. Sadly I was too late cuz my garden is full of feathers, so many of 'em it looks like the demise of Big Bird.

It is sunny but a cold wind blowing my bouff all over the place.

Dinner at 1pm Errol and did you get my message about your request for the motorbike ;-)

French final today , yeeehhh Rafa to win :-D :-D

See you all in a bit >>>>>>>>>>>>> behave now ;-) ;-)

They're no joke Errol. There are several nesting in the trees around my garden and the racket they make drives me barmy.

. . . and don't mention the bloomin' seagulls - grrr! :-|

. . . or the geese the neighbours 2 doors down have in their garden :-P

Errol - Have you got a peregrine falcon I could borrow for the whole of the magpie season ?

Hi Mersey and All,

Looking forward to the family coming for dinner today.

How do you get rid of noisy magpies ?

Auntie Barb, can I come for dinner please?
I haven't had a Sunday roast for about three years.
:(

Mersey is it really Day 16?

How time flies when enjoying good company on a hilarious thread!

Morning all :-D Cloudy and a bit chilly down my end :-(

It is cracking the flags as they say in Wales......super hot already. Clear blue skies and a light breeze......coffee & toast on the patio methinks.

Have a lovely peaceful Sunday everyone.

Barb.......sod the dinner....life is too short :-D

Goodmorning one and all,late rising so missed the birds feeding

Hello Mersey...

since it is Sunday Morning where you are:

Well, when I was a kid I'd take a trip every summer down the Mississippi
To visit my granny in her antebellum world
I'd run barefooted all day long climbin' trees free as a song
And one day I happened to catch myself a squirrel
Well, I stuffed him down in an old shoe box, punched a couple of holes in the top
And when Sunday came I snuck him into Church
I was sittin' way back in the very last pew showin' him to my good buddy Hugh
When that squirrel got loose and went totally berserk
Well, what happened next is hard to tell
Some thought it was heaven others thought it was hell
But the fact that something was among us was plain to see
As the choir sang "I Surrender All" the squirrel ran up Harv Newlan's coveralls
Harv leaped to his feet and said, "Somethin's got a hold on me", Yeow!

Chorus:
The day the squirrel went berserk
In the First Self-Righteous Church
In the sleepy little town of Pascagoula
It was a fight for survival that broke out in revival
They were jumpin' pews and shoutin' Hallelujah!

Well, Harv hit the aisles dancin' and screamin'
Some thought he had religion others thought he had a demon
And Harv thought he had a weed eater loose in his Fruit-Of-The-Looms
He fell to his knees to plead and beg and the squirrel ran out of his britches leg
Unobserved to the other side of the room
All the way down to the amen pew where sat Sister Bertha better-than-you
Who'd been watchin' all the commotion with sadistic glee
But you should've seen the look in her eyes
When that squirrel jumped her garters and crossed her thighs
She jumped to her feet and said "Lord have mercy on me"
As the squirrel made laps inside her dress
She began to cry and then to confess to sins that would make a sailor blush with shame
She told of gossip and church dissension but the thing that got the most attention
Was when she talked about her love life and then she started naming names

Chorus:
The day the squirrel went berserk
In the First Self-Righteous Church
In that sleepy little town of Pascagoula
It was a fight for survival that broke out in revival
They were jumpin' pews and shoutin' Hallelujah!

Well seven deacons and the pastor got saved,
Twenty-five thousand dollars was raised and fifty volunteered
For missions in the Congo on the spot
Even without an invitation there were at least five hundred rededications
And we all got baptized whether we needed it or not
Now you've heard the bible story I guess
How he parted the waters for Moses to pass
Oh the miracles God has wrought in this old world
But the one I'll remember 'til my dyin' day
Is how he put that Church back on the narrow way
With a half crazed Mississippi squirrel

Chorus:
The day the squirrel went berserk
In the First Self-Righteous Church
In the sleepy little town of Pascagoula
It was a fight for survival that broke out in revival
They was jumpin' pews and shoutin' Hallelujah!

Supermorning Mersey, Dermot and Babsinglos.
Was up and out feeding the birds at 6, lovely sunny day here,
am enjoying some 'me' time before my 3 year old granddaughter
is awake,
Hope you all enjoy your day.
Jean xx :-D :-D :-D

Morning Mersey and friends. Supercala whatsit day to you all.
Well I am up to a couple of pesky magpies making a hell of a row. I am keeping a close eye on them because we have blackbirds nesting close by.

As usual OH will be wanting his roast dinner at 1pm. So I shall be "slaving" over a hot stove grrr. It does keep him quiet for the rest of the day ha ha.

Whatever you are doing, enjoy :-D

Up with the lark - that's me, not to mention that pesky seagull & his good lady.

Both very cheeky standing there on my garden fence. Wish they would shut their gob! I do try to turn a deaf eye to their personal goings-on. Certain things should be done in private.

Lucky for them both the cat has decided to sleep in again.

Hiya all you lovely people :-D <3
