Morning All :-D <3

Bright, sunny and warm this monring. :-)

Well that was a storm and a half last night. Rolling thunder, fork lightening and torrential rain. Not that I am complaining.

I love to look at the sky when there is a storm, provided I am dry indoors. ;-)

Have a good day Everyone. <3 <3

Morning Maddie :-)

Ooh, not a restful night then...........

Still dry here !
No water in the bird bath, so no overnight rain for us.

Mild and cloudy with a hint of brightness, so I might get a bit done in the garden before the forecast rain arrives.

Von, - Interesting what you say about possible claims.
The government maintain that we are in a flood risk area ( not immediately by the sea, but considered coastal and low ground)
Our household insurance is due soon and several firms won't touch this area due to the supposed risk, so it will be interesting to see what they come up with about the effects of drought :-S

Morning Gwn :-D <3

No I dont mind a drop of rain, and will cheerfully walk along in it.

Needless to say Beloved did not hear a thing. :-0 I was standing looking out of the window, and he was sleeping peacefully. :-D :-D

Morning Maddie & Gwyn <3 <3 :-D :-D

I had to Google Mudi :-D :-D

Yes. we had the Storm last night too :-0. Ralphie was beside himself :-( <3

After about an hour and a half he calmed down and fell asleep....partly through sheer exhaustion :-( <3

That left me wide awake :-0

Earlier in the evening fireworks were going off... Pakistan beat India at cricket :-| :-|

Think I might have a nap or two today :-D

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

Apparently we had heavy rain during the night but I heard nothing. As I said to OH, ‘I slept the sleep of the righteous.’ ;-)

A super day yesterday. Watched Grandson 2 play cricket and, YEAH, his team won the shield and the lads each got a very nice trophy - quite swish, I thought. We had a family celebratory meal and drink at Dtr’s afterwards. His first footy game of the season is on Saturday. <3 :-D

Nothing here in the Medway area either and was actually a very nice day yesterday weather wise

Not so nice financially cos I do need new glasses

Well they did agree to put new lenses in my current frames as they were expensive and in good condition BUT still costing me £235 !!

And my prescription sunglasses will need updating too and they will be over £300

Wish I had stayed at home! :-( :-S

morning all :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Mudi? I must admit when I first looked I thought it said Mutt Monday :-D

no flashing or rumbling here - not that woke me up anyway.

Afternoon Maddie :-D <3 Gwyn :-D <3 Belle :-D <3 Joy :-D <3Shirley :-D <3Island :-D <3

I need some sleep :-(

Afternoon all :-D <3

I did hear the storm just ;-) ;-)

It was the opposite in our house Maddie I slept OH was up with his camera. :-D

Gwyn we suffered subsidence in our house in 2003 when there was an increase in

claims. I hope your insurance will cover all events for you. <3

Been to Sparkles this morning for food. :-D :-D :-D

Afternoon everyone :-D :-D <3 <3

Tis a hot day here again after rain overnight, I stripped our bed this morning and it all dried…..I hate the blasted job :-0 :-0

Just put another load out and now going to have a well earned sit down :-D :-D

Wonder if the Teachers have locked themselves in the store cupboards :-D :-D :-D

Afternoon everyone :-)

Well, no gardening got done.
My friend phoned inviting me round for coffee, which sounded a much better option ;-)

Picked up a few fallen conkers on the way home.
I really don't know if they make any difference to warding off spiders, but daughter might think it will help.
We haven't seen the big hairy one again yet, but I bet it's lurking somewhere :-|

Afternoon Everyone. :-D <3 <3

OK confession time now. I did not know Mudi either. :-D I looked up on Google and got a list of dogbreeds beginning with M. ;-) ;-)

Have a good evening All. <3

Spiders yuk :-0 :-0 :-0

Well Sparkles have come up with another brilliant idea…..getting rid of their cups/saucers and teapots in their cafes :-0 :-0 :-0

Replacing them with mugs and tea bags/ who wants a Cappuccino in a mug
:-0 :-0 :-|

PS….might enjoy my tea now…Priti Patel has resigned :-D :-D :-D

Evening all. (Always reminds me of Dixon.) <3 :-D

I shall have to persuade pals to pop into Sparkles to see whether ours is the same. It'll take some doing because it's always Costa because we can see out of the windows. For some odd reason, the many windows in our Sparkles cafe are too high for any of us to see out! They may have designed it like that so that people did not linger long but I get the feeling that they have lost a lot of customers to places like Costa - and we have two within walking distance, one large and one small with outside tables too.

Good news about PP, Ann. :-D

Evening :-D

Evening :-D :-D <3 <3

Evening Pat :-D <3

Crammed again I see :-(

Shocking innit ;-)
