Hello folks, such interesting news, visits, neighbours ,families but sorry for nasties like migraines etc,
Yes Mowsehowse was right, down for maintenance earlier.
( sounds like I know what I am talking about ,)
Well new paint came today , and a little set of drawers for the bathroom ,I measured and the space was high enough but there is a little Ledge I did not notice.
I can use them though .
Busy day, lots done .
Daughter usually phones for a couple of hours ,every Monday.
But had a day out so perhaps catching up.She has so much to do.
Made another list for Tesco in case my son from Bolton is not allowed to travel.
I enquired last week about my eyes,I have not been discharged but of course no appointment and there are some problems .
Appointment has now come with my Consultant ( He makes you feel like that
- ie he is there just for you.)
Spoke with a Mum passing from school, she admired the garden ,I offered some seeds when ready of a plant she liked ( perennial sweet peas)I said when seed pods are ripe ,will hang a bag on my gate in a week or so.
Waiting to hear how FH and the dog got on together.
The breeding of budgies to get the colours you want is quite scientific ,I bought a book when we got the first one ,as my knowledge was scanty so needed to Gen up.
A fascinating subject and lovely hobby ,but time consuming ,good for retired chaps.
Had a bad dream ,but all mixed up so can’t remember.
Felt odd though ,funny, when woke, thought oh oh !
But passed off ,and a good day today.
Tidying up dropped ##&&#@££& jigsaw!
Not what I had done but the pieces yet to be fitted in.
Trouble is they are mostly the sky which is grey/blue ,and so is my posh rug !
So not easy to find ,I don’t want to vac them up ,however clean the vac is, not nice!
Must get bulbs I got planted ,before bad weather comes , I put them in big pots and put those among the evergreen stuff ,then when Spring bulbs have
finished Summer ones like Gladioli ,Alliums etc.to fill the borders.
My fig tree has got three more ripe ones,just need a bit more colour as quite soft but so sweet when fully purple.
Oooh figs and cream.
Let us know how the budgie story develops.
Seemingly there are thousands and thousands of green parakeets in Britain now, escapees !
Sounds nice but probably not good for our native birds ,many are struggling .
You don’t see cheeky little sparrows anymore do you?
Nor so many pigeons.
So glad some of you enjoyed family visits etc,,and hope it is not too long before we are able to go about our daily lives again.
We will know more tomorrow .
Once again Tge leading expert was on the Radio ,saying how Corona 19 is passed from person to person and the only way to eradicate it is to keep a distance between you and other people .
He ought to be on TV saying that.
T,V this tea time, people on a street mashing how they socially distance ,whilst walking in quite a crowd and no masks etc!
So many wearing masks but not over their noses.
Well off to make a cuppa , then bed and a read .
Goodnight everyone, thanks again for your news, nothing much happening here to report.
Viktoria.
