Plant I only actually wash them down once a week I just dust them every day, to be honest they don't get dirty. The doors get finger marks but not skirtings, it's just my habits and as I always say I live In a tiny shoe box
I bought one of those radiator dusters from JML in Asda,s the other day. Gets behind radiator,s but also brilliant for high places like my wall mounted speakers that are in corners and almost to the ceiling . Saves getting step ladders out too.
Sun was out but gone black again

Clover I think the Knit and Natter type groups work well if there enough people, and if they are friendly .
The one you tried wasn't that way. I wonder if there are any others near you?
My friend goes to one in her local library. A pub in town has an evening one in a small room. It seems very popular with younger working women, and young mums once the children are in bed 😊

[Nanto2girls]

Clover,sorry the knit and natter group was,t very good.

Enfys,pleased you had a good day in Wells.

Plant,hope DIL manages to swith off.

Went to the supermarket,and when we came out the sun was blaring.
We did the garden though.Started getting very warm when we were almost finished.
All i wanted to then was have a lovely refreshing shower.

[Gemini]

I had a bit of a bout of interior window cleaning - the window cleaner came yesterday to do the outside.
I don't know what came over me. Maybe I should lie in a dark room until the urge goes away next time

[Qwerty]

Evening ladies first of all thank you for the positive comments on my feelings about the sadness we are all feeling on here
Daisy hope things are going ok with your arrangements for your cousins funeral it’s turned out to be a naff July for you.
Enfys lovely that you have been able to enjoy your day in Wells I’ve heard it’s a lovely place to see but sadly a bit too far for me in a day .
plant hope your Dd manages to relax and re charge her batteries
Gem I can’t remember when we last bought a laptop , enjoy your new toy 😁
I am out shortly having a girlie meal out a Chinese one with three generations of us ,grandma, daughter and granddaughter, leaving the men behind, OH can’t
stand Chinese food , and I don’t know what sil is up to .
Oma hope you are feeling better after the dreadful shock this week, you were good mates as was Plant 💐
Happy Sunday everybody

[Gemini]

I hope you enjoyed your meal Qwerty. A 3 generation Chinese meal sounds good to me 😊

Tomorrow we are going to Shibden Hall in Halifax, so if I'm not around that will be why!

Good night everyone 🌛🛏️💤

[Daisy]

Just managed to get on here before the end of the day.

It's been a day of even more paperwork for us, but DS1 and GS1 called round and GS1 showed us how to use my cousin's phone so we can let his contacts know what has happened. I'm not looking forward to doing that at all.

Oma - thank goodness your scan was basically ok - hopefully being blasted with Vit D will stop it in its tracks.

Clover- do you take Vit D anyway?

Gem - your new laptop sounds very swish! Take it easy - you need to relax after all that window cleaning. Have a lovely day tomorrow.

Enfys - glad you enjoyed your day in Wells. Now Knit and Natter without the Knit sounds perfect to me! I'm sure the lady will be delighted with the family history you've done for her.

Qwerty - your night out sounds fun. Unfortunately we can't do anything about my cousin's funeral until after the post mortem and until I've got the death certificate. It will all take longer with being so far away. At this rate, because of OH's 2 hospital appointments it's quite possibly going to be September before we can have the funeral! Plant - unfortunately my cousin didn't leave anything in order. Strange really, because he was meticulous about some things.

Nanto - it sounds as though you've had the most sunshine today.

[Nanto2girls]

Very warm morning.We were in the garden having coffee at 6'oclock.

Gem, i bet your windows are sparkling now.

Daisy,hope you get cousins things sorted. A lot of extra work for you.

Qwerty,hope you enjoyed the chinese meal.

I'm making steak and onion pies for the freezer today.
Cooked the filling yesterday.
Hubby gone to a car boot in Wakefield with his brother.

Hope everyone has a good day.

[Gemini]

Good morning all.
Nice start to the day Nan2.
I bet the pies are good.
Not an enviable task with your cousin's phone Daisy.

Sunday roast out for us today.
We are being picked up at 10. I'll catch you later.

Have a good Sunday!

[Oma]

Morning ladies a nice morning , bed stripped and in washer , two loads Darks and whites already done ,

Out to meat our friends for coffee at 10 .

Qwerty did you enjoy your girlie night out

Daisy so sad having to tell people and sort all that paperwork out , it takes so long when your not near ,I know what it was like when my sister died she was at other end of country and we had her home to clear too , you will have that to do also wont you ,

Gem enjoy the day take pics if its allowed

Nanto steak and onion pie sounds lovely , I don't like steak and Kidney though so when you send mine don't put kidney in

Have a good day ladies I hope the rain doesn't put a stop to the Dam being repaired those poor people must be so upset .

[Daisy]

Good morning everyone. Nanto - a lovely summery graphic. I have to confess I woke about 6 am, just as you were enjoying coffee in the garden, and went straight back to sleep. I'll happily have the steak and kidney pies that Oma doesn't want!

Gem - have a lovely day and enjoy your trip to Shibden Hall.

Qwerty - I hope you enjoyed your girly night out.

Oma - I hope the dam holds, too. My cousin's house is in Leek - one of the towns on the high ground near Whaley Bridge, and the rain was torrential while we were there, and they had already had heavy rain the previous week. It all just runs down into the valley where the dam is. Yes, unfortunately, we will have to sort out D's house. We've made a start on the paperwork and I cleaned the kitchen and threw away anything even slightly perishable. We'll also arrange for the funeral to be up there.

I'm hoping to get the garden tidied up today. There are weeds everywhere - just a couple of weeks of neglect and it's like a jungle! OH has to go and visit a sick friend, but I'm hoping he'll be able to help a bit. My back's not great so it will be slow work.

Have a good day, ladies.

[Plantaholic]

Daisy, bit worried about your comment that your back's not great when you are about to start some gardening, do take care. Don't envy you having to sort out your cousin's house, hope he wasn't a hoarder.

Those poor people not being able to go back into their homes, hope they can make the dam secure soon.

Three generation Chinese sounds enjoyable Qwerty.

I think our window cleaner is due soon so I might clean the insides next week. Sil is planning a BBQ later, he will fetch his mother. Sunny here, hope it lasts, wet BBQ's are not very enjoyable. I had a strange nights sleep, woke at 3 and couldn't get back to sleep, throat sore and I had a painful ankle so I got up and took some paracetamol and then went into a heavy dreamy sleep and woke at 10am. Now I feel sluggish.

Nanto, I like steak and kidney, nice buttery mash and veg. Not forgetting the gravy.

[Qwerty]

A good morning all on what is a pleasant day up north, I too was up for the loo at 6 and thought about getting up but like Daisy I went back to bed got up at 8, Nanto I’m not good with pastry I bought a pie from Asda with salt and pepper pastry sounded interesting havnt had it yet though, hope the weather doesn’t get too warm unlike Gem lucky lady although I was out last night I’m cooking a roast .
The Chinese food was fantastic I was starving to be honest I was saving myself , we had a nice girlie time , my eldest g/d is nine noticed she had a pretty pink glitter shoulder bag and realised how she is growing up, it will be make up before long 💄
Today a quiet day before the g/c arrive starting tomorrow she has 2 sleepovers and 2 days and all three together Tuesday but no sleepovers for the twins they are going to see Mr. Bloom from CBBC on Wednesday but back to me then Thursday 😳
Daisy does your cousin own his own house if so you will have to go through the selling of that which could be a headache !
Plant take it easy lady 😀
Oma enjoy your Sunday morning coffee and chit chat
Gem I’m sure you will enjoy Shibden Hall

[Nanto2girls]

Qwerty,it was a pleasant day up north.Then just after 1ish we had a very heavy downpour with 1 rumble of thunder.

Oma,i haven't bought kidney for years,and we both like a bit in a pie.

[Sunshine]

Daisy take care when sorting out your cousins home. If your back is playing up now, be careful not to aggravate it. Take it slowly. It may take a bit longer, but that is better than putting yourself out of commission. Good luck xx
