Morning Fly:-D :-D <3 <3


No Fly as I have a very sore knee due to Priya turning me around , I pivoted on my left leg and my left knee has slight damage from all the sport I used to do. Priya decided she was going to have it out with the little dog who always barks at her. I had the lead in my left hand and she shot passed me on my left pulling me round before I could anchor up to hold her back, she is a very strong dog. Thought I'd got away with it as I had no pain. When I got up to go to bed I realised I had a problem. Dreadful night's sleep as I couldn't find a comfortable position and this morning I have a very swollen knee :-(

Morning Hopalong and Fly. :-D <3

I hope you get some ease soon, Pat. <3

Also, I hope you enjoy your time with your daughter and family.

Fly, I have a Sainsburys’ delivery due this morning. I have only been in there once and into Marksys once since March 2020. I am turning into my Mum who used to get two deliveries per week when I was a very young child.

I just can’t be bothered to grocery shop now, I have no enthusiasm for it. I think one of my sisters-in-law is like me as my brother is still doing click-and-collect.

It’s sunny and bright here with a temperature of 21 and higher promised. :-D

Morning Joy :-D :-D <3 <3

Thank you Joy

Bless her as soon as she'd finished the packing last night she let me know :-D

Taken a tablet to ease the problem and will be careful for the next couple of days. Hopefully it'll soon be gone.

I should see her about 12.00 BST <3

Morning Pat, Fly, Joy and Maddie :-)

Pat
I hope your knee soon recovers .
Have a wonderful time with your daughter and family <3
You've waited so long for this.

Washing just about to finish it's final spin, but I'm not sure what else is in store for today.... nothing too energetic, as it's still warm and muggy here.

I don't mind grocery shopping now.
Daughter always takes us at quiet times, so it's no hassle.

Morning Maddie :-D :-D <3 <3

Morning Gwyn :-D :-D <3 <3

Thank you both <3 <3


I've always hated shopping so does my daughter, it's so funny when we go shopping as we both know what we want so only go the shops we need and then go straight home.

Morning Von :-)

I hope you enjoy the exhibition..... paintings ?

Daughter has just told me that we have a hosepipe ban starting soon .... I'm not surprised, but it won't bother us much really.

We are economical with summer water having lived in Cyprus for some time and having had water supply to the flat turned off for half of each day in peak season :-0

Morning Von, Enjoy your exhibition and tell us all about it. :-D :-D <3 <3



It teaches you how much you need water and how to economise doesn't it Gwyn. There are a lot more dams now up on the high ground.

Morning Maddie, Gwyn and Von. <3 :-D

I’m a bit like that with cooking too, Maddie, but OH does his fair share and always has done. He is a late riser usually so always gets his own breakfast. He has set dinner menus too but I don’t mind at all.

Von, which exhibition?

I don’t think we had many hosepipe bans when we lived overseas.

Afternoon Von, Gwyn, Belle, and Island :-D <3

I also will be interested in what exhibition Von has gone to see. :-)

We have a very good system Gwyn, I do the shopping and cooking, BUT, I do not have to clean windows, the stove, decorating or put my hand in the loo!

Not sunny here, but still very warm.
