Well done all of you!
Had quite a bit of milk to use up so had hot milk after getting ready for bed,one last teeth clean and a good night’s sleep.
Must have rained heavily , big pools in the lane where nasty neighbour’s contractors with heavy plant have ruined the surface,
Hope he gets it put right ,it is a short cut to school from a housing
estate ,,the children’s shoes are filthy and feet probably wet too.
I see former pupils taking their children to school ,it is lovely .
I will give NN a plus point , he does get rid of any builder’s rubble quickly .
The work is done at weekends so a friends arrangement I imagine .
Except does he have any friends?
Some glorious gladioli still blooming, these survived the winds,a peachy orange with pinky centres and some with lemony centres.
Tesco delivery this evening,amended the list as Bolton where my son who does some shopping for me lives ,if there are any more restrictions I won’t
ask for shopping next week.
He is now awaiting the readings from the gadget he had in his oesophagus
which could monitor the peristalsis ,how strong etc ,to try to get to the bottom( no, not that far!) of his disabling indigestion.
Must phone second son to see if little Ditsy has returned she is like milk chocolate with paws ,tail, ears dipped in dark chocolate .
A Burmese.
Named after Ord Wingates Chindits ,incredibly brave Native and British guerrilla soldiers who fought in the jungles of Burma to prevent the Japanese
getting into India.
Kohima and other places .
We have secured a very good no tariff trade deal with Japan, whilst the EU are gunning for us?How times change !
My second son is Ditsy’s owner.
His interest in Military History started when he was six - seven and the 900
years anniversary of The Battle of Hastings .
Did. A fantastic drawing of it ,with Harold on the floor with an arrow in his eye.I gave it to him when moving .Anything I thought they would treasure as I had done ,they got.aTeddies,toys,letters,cards,teeth,( except my daughter put all three children’s teeth in the same bottle with the puppy’s! )
If they could throw them away O.K ,but I could not.
Went on to work with Vickers / MOD after Uni .
Well ,brightening up , sun block on ,and some outside work then bath ,hair
——- hair , whatever can I do with it?I look like I don’t know what!
I have decided this year I am not making a huge sickly rich fruit cake ,but a nice Dundee or Mary Berry’s Victorian Christmas cake .
No spices but apricots and pineapple .
On the other hand if my daughter’s franchise is still open the team are marvellous and would like a big fruit cake to cut into.
I buy lots if toffees for them all at Christmas in a big tin, and I think of the big strong mechanics dipping into lollypops, sweets, jelly babies , small baby bars of chocolate .etc.TV ad.
Wonder if their voices change” But we are the Police”
Have a good day folks ,a good night’s sleep and let’s hope and pray things improve, so at least families can see one another at Christmas.
Cheerio,Viktoria.
