    Gem, Birthday cakes have become a kind of art form, haven't they! Long gone are the Victoria sandwich cake with icing, sprinkles and candles round the edge!

    Oma, I'm sure your GS will love working in the kennels and cattery for the summer. It will be an interesting job. I'm sure B's pleased he got that painting done. What a pity it was so cold.

    It's been pleasantly warm here today, until tea time when it went chilly.

    DIL1 and both GSs are coming down for the day tomorrow. But she's just found out that on what will be a very busy day, a section of the M3 will be totally closed. It means a 20 mile detour for her, but at least she saw the closure notice today. She's going to come earlier in the hope of missing some of the inevitable jams. If it looks totally undoable we'll put the visit off till next week-end, but that will also be a nightmare because of Easter holidays.

      Good morning. Its chilly,had a slight frost,but the sun is shining.

      Lizzie,the views from your balcony sound lovely.

      Daisy, thats one heck of a detour 20 miles.

      Just the usual kind of day for me.
      Hubby is making a new garden bench,so he'll probably be working on that.

      Had some lovely slices of roast beef in the freezer,so thats for dinner with mash and veggies.

        Good morning everyone.

        Pretty graphic Nan2.

        Daisy, I hope DIL and GS's get to you without too much hassle.

        We will briefly see GS2 on his birthday today. SIL is coming over to borrow OH's car. His is a sports car and can't take GS and a friend. DD and GD have the more sensible car in Blackpool for the dance competition. We have no plans today, but it we decide to go out we have my car.
        Poppy has an upset tummy this morning. She is on the spare bed looking sorry for herself. We suspect she ate something she shouldn't in the garden yesterday. We will keep an eye on her and fingers crossed she will be OK later

          Good Sunday morning, everyone.

          Nanto, what a lovely graphic. So pretty. Your hubby is always busy, but a new garden bench it a great project, and I bet it will last a lot longer than a shop-bought one.

          Gem, I hope the dance competition goes well. I'm sure GS2 will be very excited. It's useful to be able to borrow cars within the family, isn't it. Poor little Poppy. I wonder what she ate. I always assume cats are far too sensible to eat anything bad for them, but perhaps kittens have to learn that. I hope she's ok.

          DIL is going to come down earlier than planned, because the detour will also be very busy. But I can't see the GSs getting out of bed in time, so they will probably have a very slow journey. I hope they make it in time for lunch. They could, of course, come with their Mum, but GS1 likes the drive, and they sometimes stay on after she's gone home. It's always good to see them, though. DIL is bringing and cooking lunch for us all, so I can swan round, being a lady of leisure.

            I bet GS is excited for today 😁
            Fingers crossed for GD at the competition xx

            Nanto

              Gem, hope poppy is better soon.
              Good luck to GD.
              Happy birthday to GS2.

              Daist,hope family arrived safely.

              Oma, its cold but very sunny here.

              Hubby only got started on the bench ½ an hour ago.
              Nephew paid a visit earlier, he came on his motorbike.
              When he was ready to go,his bike wouldn't start.
              So, they had a fiddle with it but no joy.
              Eventually hubby helped him home with it. Fortunately,he only lives 3 streets away.

                Oma, I bet B's car looks lovely and shiny now. Mine is covered in gritty sand stuff that's come in on the wind. DIL and the GSs brought Bailey the BC with them, so Eva has been well-entertained all day. They both spent a lot of time with us in the garden alternately basking in the sun, and then heading for shade to cool off. It's been a beautiful day.

                Nanto, what a nuisance for your nephew, his motor bike breaking down like that. Thank goodness they didn't have to push it too far though. I hope it's nothing serious. How did OH get on with the bench?

                I hope everyone has had a good day and plenty of sunshine.

                  it's gleaming but I know what you mean about the gritty dust it seems to come from nowhere doesn't it.
                  Pleased you had a good day and Eva will have enjoyed the company of Bailey I'm sure.

                  Nanto
                  Just as well he only lived a few streets away, motorbikes are very heavy ,
                  I remember pushing or trying to push our Martins huge motorbike into his garage once,
                  I couldn't shift it 🤣
