Good morning everyone.

Its another lovely day here.

We are off on a jolly to Wadebridge with the Knit and Natter group.

Hello everyone

It's been a lovely day here.  

I heard yesterday we were picnicking at the beach today and I woke up late and had a rush round to get the picnic organised.  Paul, Hannah and Lola came over. Maya didn't want to  They nipped to a car boot first and when they arrived to collect me, Lola wasn't feeling very well, with a headache but she still wanted to go to the beach. Hannah sorted her out with some painkillers and off we went. My Sky streaming box was delivered just before we left.  It was sort of cloudy when we left but very sunny at the beach.  I managed to get into the sea but it was very cold. I was glad to get out and get into the warm. We stopped off for fish and chips on the way home.  I've washed up and sat down and had a drink and now the bed is calling.

Good afternoon everyone, bursts of brilliant and hot sunshine and then overcast and grey but hot and muggy whichever option happened. 

I stripped the bed yesterday and washed the bedding, turned the mattress (nearly killed me) I dried the big sheet and duvet, mattress cover etc on the line and then finished it off in the drier to remove any remaining creases so I don't have to iron it. Then did a lot of pruning. Bubba robot was out again cutting the grass. 

Today I woke up with a dodgy back so not done much physical work apart from wiping down the kitchen cupboard doors and the rest of the laundry, my clothes and. underwear and the towels. I was going to do the dog and cat's bedding today but will do it another day, it was only replaced with clean a week ago and they dont' go anywhere to get dirty so it's not urgent.

Had.a surprise yesterday I went to the BP garage to fill up as the car was down to 1/4 full and it's now a Texaco garage, and I wanted to use up my BP points toward the cost, so carrie don to the Cornwall Services and they're no longer BP either, they're now Shell.  The fuel at the Services is just over 10p a litre more expensive than the Texaco garage on the old A30 nearer me so I turned round and went back to the Texaco garage. I now have £50 of BP points I can't use on fuel cos there's no BP garage near me. pfffft. You can use them on items so I suppose I'll have to do that.  Wonder why BP pulled out of those 2 fuel stations.

Enjoy your day everyone! xxx

Evening all, (knees bend). I've been going through a bad patch since I was last in. I am feeling much better now. All going well tomorrow I shall be able to go out on my mobility scooter. Thanks to the kind but interfering person, the bolt on the back gates is out of my reach. so Nathan will hopefully open it for me. Freedom awaits. I can't wait. for another day!  It will be the first time I been out on my own since lockdown,

Good morning everyone.

It's a lovely day here after the storm last night.  A clap of thunder woke me up and I heard a couple more grumbles.  Our local weather forecasters went storm chasing and live so I watched them for a bit. They came on live because there was lots of activity and as soon as they went live, it all stopped   Then I went back to sleep and just woken up.  So I'm too late to get out to Age get-together so I'll wash the towels and bedding.  Put off the normal wash time as Jefferson is arriving this week ... so it will be clean for a couple of days for me then I'll change it and clean when he's left again.  Not sure when that will be ... it all sounds a bit open.  BT have been trying to phone me all day yesterday - the time for talking has finished. But they did manage to send me a text to say I owe them 39p which I thought was hilarious. I'm leaving one day before my contract ends and my contract ends half way through the month and I've already paid for the month in advance so I could have expected half a month refund!!!
