    A neighbour of ours turned 100 years old today, his family sorted out cake etc, neighbours sent cards and at 7o'clock there was a piper in the street. Nice to know there is something to celebrate!

    Another lovely day here. Thankfully a bit cooler than yesterday. I have been garden pottering most of the day. Next door neighbour gave me a lovely hosta cutting, so that’s three hostas now all doing well. 

    Nice evening stroll with pooch. Finished latest jigsaw, got a Tesco delivery slot, and sprayed the roses.

    And his Cumbrian one too, M. Only just managed to catch up with the posts because of  the site's lockdown again last night.

    Crikey, we had rain here this morning, first for weeks. Just enough to wet all the garden cushions I left out last night, but not enough to water things.....😡 They will dry quick though, breezy and warm today.

    Patience man patience especially with this site. Kept getting wrong way sign posts on my phone when logging in. Now got on on my tablet  photos are on the phone resized and ready so here's hoping this works and then I'll try to upload photos from my phone.

    Please meet Dora. A real cutie. Very laid back. That wasn't to be her name originally, but litter was named for finding Nemo, and she was Dory - the more we watching and thought the more Dora, short for 'is adorable'. So she is just that, Lexi will have to wait for another 😉. She seems to be having the desired effect on OH too which is lovely to see 😀

    Great journey back, clean in her carrier and no travel sickness 😇😇. Good journey both ways and nice stare in the garden, and a cuppa with our son 😉

    Popped her into her cage at 1030 last night with mum and litter blanket and 3 toys, covered the cage and said goodnight. Bit of whimpering but soon settled. Busy day yesterday with much to learn sniff and see so suspect exhaustion!

    Popped down at 0145 but didn't go in the conservatory all very peaceful. Came down at 0445, she was pleased to see me and I struggled to open her door 😱. No mess or wet, trip in the garden beautiful birdsong etc, produced wee and her first poo since arrival, phew! Whilst I cleared that she stuck her head in hedgehog house and ate it's food! Dry kitten food. Quick play and I dossed up in the conservatory sofa until OH came in at 0830.

    Still all very calm and so far the expected chaos with the blinds man not happening. In fact shes on my foot asleep in the garden as I type. Bit breezy though - still no rain.

    Not read all the latest posts yet, need so nothing to do whilst sitting in the garden 😉

    None of the hoped for rain here, it must have bypassed us, again. Everywhere is dry and dusty.

    Sorting out the farmshop order this morning, they have finally managed to get a basic list of their stock on line, this will stop a lot of guess work on my part.

    Must get a photo of the beautiful black lambs that are near us now, don't know whether to say "ah or bah" when I see them. wink

    Bakers2 we await your news with eager anticipation....(I think I know how you'll be feeling but you won't have much time with a live ball of mischievousness roaming around!) smile

    Brue no one more frustrated than me! I have posted 3 but need a community moderator to approve my 1st 3 posts 😂😂😂😂. I've done them they should be 71, 72 and 73 you 74 and this 75. All a bit mad........

    Which is how it shows when I look but my posts aren't there. So it may look like you've missed it.

    I'll keep trying - I can be a VERY TRYING person!

    Sunny here again today but the wind is absolutely wild. Hung out a load of washing only to see it lying all over the garden half an hour later as washing line had snapped: sods law that it was a whole white bedding set!😠

    The rain that was promised last night didn't arrive so it will be out with the watering can again this evening.

    Winds are up gusting last night but a gentler breeze today and a bit murky this morning. However the sun has now come out and it is warming up nicely.

    Not got big plans for today, a box of pop studs arrived which are to secure the new carpet down in the MH so will get on with that this afternoon.

    First walk of the day, by the river and to the beach.  Point of interest today was Cornish fishing vessel 'Our Anna' moored in the port.  Haven't seen her before

    We've just brought in the towels etc. that were put out 30 minutes ago. All dry except for one.

    Parcel of elastic, ordered on Tuesday, has arrived this morning so more masks to make over the weekend.

    The wind here is wicked today but like a few others the promised rain has not materialised. Plenty of Grandma's Bonnets blown over. We moved a few of the smaller pots out of the wind last night. Glad we did.

    We started to try and note seagoing vessels away from their home ports a couple of years ago, using location codes. Quite surprising how far away some are from their home registered port. PZ is an easy one, but quite a way from home!😁

    Bakers - assuming you're at least able to log in and read the forum and in view of Ro''s post above, if you like to email me the puppy's  name I'd be happy to reveal it on your behalf. I'm sure lots of us are desperate to know! smile I'm guessing whatever the problem is won't be solved over the weekend! wink

    I could quite easily hate you Bakers but will let you off for previous good behaviour.

    I've been told to show Mrs WN the photos when they arrive. I'm going to have to tell her that you been barred for the immediate future due to being a non member and hope she forgets, otherwise I can see a "Isn't she soon cute. can we have one?" conversation.

    She is cute though ( both Dora and Mrs WN).smile

    Ohhhh she’s so cute. I’ve been checking the forum all day for the “great revelation”. Dora is lovely. Mr WM, I think my OH will be having the same conversation!
