[WeeGranny]

Well to top it all,OH fell off ladder trying to replace starter motor in fluorescent light in garage! Apart from grazes and bruises nothing seems to be broken! Hoping this week is better than last, DD filled diesel car with unleaded, SiL missed the last train home and DS with broken leg.......nearly forgot, vet thinks doggo might have a slipped disc ( on painkillers and no exercise except on lead down garden!). Off to sit in the sunshine with a good book now!

OMG what a family how many robins did you kill last winter, having said that my OH fell down the bedroom steps on Sat morning carrying a little table we have for the kids to sit on has 2 animal shaped chairs missed a step abt quarter of way down knocked his thumb up and banged his elbow hasn't stopped him decorating, could be costly fir DD to change petrol over 😱

[Gemini]

WG, your family really are in the wars!!

Good to hear you taking some relaxation time Qwerty

GS1 and I had a good trip this morning. The children were very good and enjoyed themselves. Their teacher for next year at school came, and I got the chance of a really long chat with her, which was lovely. Her mum is one of us helping out grandmas

This afternoon GS wanted the sprinkler on in the garden. OH is away all day in a golf competition, and I couldn't get it attached. So, I sprayed GS with the hopespipe for ages, and he kept collecting some water in a jug and pouring it on my feet! Once dried he sat and watched TV, while I had a welcome cuppa. His spare clothes are here, but so far he isn't keen to wear any. I will insist he dresses before coming to the table for tea! He loves being naked - maybe he will be a naturist one day

OH is eating at the golf club, so just me for tea. Salmon, new potatoes and veg. One of my favourite meals!

Our children and GC loved running under a hose. Your meal is a favourite of mine Gemini.

All these accidents must stop now.

[Oma]

WG my goodness you must wonder what next
Poor dog too ,
My SIL's brother did that with the fuel last week lucky he realised and didn't move the car , rang AA they came out drained the tank and charged him £200 he had put £.80 in the tank so lost that and had to pay for more fuel so cost £ 360 in the end
Qwerty hope J is ok I know its only a couple of steps but he could quite easy break a bone ,
Gem I love Salmon and new potatoes had Salmon the other night with sweet chili sauce it was lovely ,
Little ones love water don't they

DD rang earlier she was furious , she had taken the dog guard out of the car yesterday and put it against the garage wall as she needed to put the seats down to transport stuff yesterday ,
This morning it wasn't there , she lives in a area where you can leave stuff out and it never goes missing so was really surprised ,
Talking to her neighbour this afternoon and she told her the scrap man had came into her garden raked around and took the guard , she didn't realise it hadn't been put out for him or she would have came out , DD said they would have had to move a few of GS1's stuff like skateboard, bike, etc to get to it.
Its a unspoken word that anything left outside the gate or at the end of the drive with a note on scrap man day is for them to take , but these had came into her garden and down the drive,

She doesn't know who they are as we have several come around every day nearly so wont get it back .
A lesson learned not to leave metal in the front of the house ,

What a cheek taking something which obviously wasn't meant for the scrap dealers.

[Nanto2girls]

WeeGranny,blimey it's all been happening at yours.
Oma, last year, neighbours across from parents bought the kids a trampoline. With it came a little step thing, so the the kids could reach trampoline.
One morning while the neighbours were taking kids to school, scrap men came and took the steps.Dad saw them,but by the time he got outside,scrap man had driven off.
We have put old washing machines outside when we have got new ones,but the scrap men have always asked first,if they can take them.
Looks like it will be another hot day,so must do my ironing before it gets too warm.

Good morning ladies.

I'm off out soon for my day with GD2, but wanted to say 'Hi'. We'll be out tonight as well (dog training), so it might be tomorrow before I get back online. We had a great day in London yesterday - I'll write about it later.

I haven't read yesterday's posts, but it sounds as though the Accident Imp is busy - take care all of you - and your OHs and families. xx
