It sounds so lovely there Daisy

Me talking to my mum on the phone at the moment is worthy of a sit com!!
I have to shout and speak clearly down the phone (OH said she heard me from outside) and I had to spell out the word drops, as she had no idea what I was saying!

I use a spray oil for my ears Gemini, it is frustrating if you can't hear conversation.

[Nanto2girls]

Misty earlier on,but its cleared now.

Gem,we sometimes have to spell out words if talking to ma or pa on the phone.
Enjoy Flamingo Land.

Daisy,it sounds beautiful in the paddock,all those lovely wild flowers.

Jacket potatoes in the slow cooker, will be gently cooking while i'm at in laws.

[Oma]

Good morning ladies ,

Nanto how are the in laws ?

Daisy you paint a pretty picture of that meadow

Gem have a lovely day I hope it stays fine , its a bit overcast hear ,

How are we all today and our OH's ?

Plant the spray sounds better than the drop oil , its so messy too . B puts it in his ears before he has them done and always seems to get it all over

Dog day today he is at the moment standing up on the fence looking into next doors patio windows crying for the cats to come out

I have washer going but nothing else planned today ,
B off to Hospital to pick his meds up and have another blood test

[Gemini]

Good morning all.

Nan2, the mist is just lifting here.
I hope the cats come out to play with doggy, Oma

Off to buy some oil to drop to my mums, then back here to wait for DD2 and children, for our day out together. GS1 is being dropped at hers, and we will all travel in her car.
Have a good day everyone.

A very sunny 24 degrees here in Portugal, had breakfast on the patio. Have a meeting to go to this morning then the bank and this afternoon by the pool I think! 😎

That paddock sounds beautiful Daisy. Yesterday my Sil cut all the grass and took the digger (OH's) just over the top of the grass in the corner and sowed a wild flower mix, I do hope they are successful as it is an area he doesn't want to keep cutting. Does your friend cut it when the flowers have finished otherwise the grass would get too tall. I think he sowed annuals so hope they seed down. That part of the garden is bordered with bluebells.

I hope the cats come out to play Oma. Holiday getting very close now.

Have a lovely day out Gemini, hope the weather is kind to you.

Good morning everyone. It sounds as though the weather generally is better - it's sunny here and definitely a bit warmer, although it was quite chilly overnight.

The paddock is beautiful, and our friends spends a lot of time maintaining it. Plant - yes, when the ox eye daisies are over he gets a local farmer to come in and cut it down, and the farmer bales the grass etc and takes it away - for fodder I suppose. A lot of the grasses have seed heads too. Everything seems to take care of its own propagation - the spring bulbs right through to the ox eye daisies. A couple of years ago he had the hedge layered and that is now looking great too - at the moment there is lilac in bloom in it which looks very pretty. He's very generous about letting people use it, and he only asks that people pick up after their dogs, and remember to close the gate properly as it's on the Forest. Yesterday I picked up from two other dogs! I can't understand some people's mentality, although I suppose if you're exercising two dogs you can't always see both of them!

Oma - I do hope Storm's playmates came out to see him. I hope B's blood test is ok this time. Hopefully your washing will dry outside ok.

Gem - perhaps your mum will be more cheerful today, but whatever, just enjoy your day with DD and all 3 GCs.

Avo - 24C sounds perfect - I'll think of you this afternoon, relaxing by the pool.

Nanto - slow cooked jacket potatoes sound wonderful. Enjoy.

I've got the washing machine going full blast - getting ready for special visitors on Friday!

[Mimi]

Good afternoon all.
Its a bright sunny day here and it felt quite warm when I went to the hairdresser .

We had a busy weekend as usual . On Saturday we went to DS who had his op on Wednesday . He was looking really well albeit in a lot of discomfort but each day he gets better.

DD sent me a photo of GS 3 wearing his glasses , he wasn't very happy about wearing them because he says you never see football players wearing glasses !


We still haven't got the handle on the freezer door as we are still waiting for the appropriate screwdriver to arrive in the post.

Avo those temperatures sound lovely

Have a good day everyone

[Nanto2girls]

Oma, in laws are fine thank you.
Warmed up a bit here now the sun has come out.
Mimi, pleased to hear you DS is getting better after his op.

[Qwerty]

Afternoon all not much to report today a bit boring really I’m used to being busy , all I’ve done is a load of washing which is drying nicely , and a tidy round. We ate out at tea time yesterday we had a power cut so what choice had we lol
Hope Gem enjoys her day.
Mimi glad DS is coming round albeit slowly that’s the best way , a few weeks from now he won’t recognise himself
Avo I will be joining you soon just a different country 😀🌞

[Oma]

Mimi GS1 who plays for Sunderland youth wore glasses for a while when he first started playing for them , tell GS footballers do wear them

Qwerty its odd when you have free time isn't it , you should have gone out today too

Daisy they didn't he cried for ages but they sat indoors with their back to him

Avo that sounds wonderful , Breakfast in the warmth ,

Gem I hope you have had a good day xx

I wonder how Enfys holiday is going .

Only a few days for us we will be staying with Mr & Mrs Daisy the night before , they have no idea what they letting themselves in for

[Gemini]

We had such a lovely day
All 3 GC were good, well 1 and 2 were, and only minor wittering and toilet refusals from 3
The weather was good, a nice day.

Nice to hear for Avo in sunny Portugal! One of OH's friends is here at the moment, golfing with her OH.
Good to hear Mimi's son is doing well.

[Nanto2girls]

Oma, i'm sure you will all enjoy each others company.
Avo, breakfast on the patio sound lovely.

[Plantaholic]

Oh poor Storm, cats are snooty when they like. I am sure Mr and Mrs Daisy will make you very welcome.

I hope Enfys and OH are having a nice time.

Been out to lunch with my Guiding friends and Tawny (Ex) came back for a cuppa and lots of chat.

I might try and find some Shasta Daisy plants for Sil and DD to boost their wild flowers.
