What I did today.

and Why is it so hard???

soop - you may need that caravan sooner than you think!!
Happy Birthday to the twins!! cupcake and for mummy and granny!

I can't believe it's a year!

Happy birthday Polly and Alice. Have a lovely day with your family, when.

No should be

Oh my goodness, when - it doesn't seem a year! I'll watch out for the photos!

Happy birthday [cupcakes] to the girls, you are in for a fun day when

I know glass - it's flown by. I've got a couple of photos to upload later. It's turning into such a special day, grandchildren-wise!

when the girls cant be one already, where has that year year gone.

Ella your granddaughter is adorable. Those cuddles are so precious, aren't they?

I've got my two little monkeys for the day. One is hiding behind the armchair eating crisps and tickling his brother to annoy him, and the other is teasing the dog with his crisps, by sticking one in each of his nostrils (Walkers French Fries!). Both looking at my face to see whether they can get away with something else, and laughing so much they have the hiccups.

At least they'll have tired themselves out before they go to their baby cousins' first birthday party later this afternoon

Thanks...I shall keep you updated.

ella not quite sure what my last post should have said but I am glad your gorgeous DGD is on the mend

Thats great soop someone showing interest in the house already

That sounds hopeful, soop!

Mornin' all! Lovely day here ...dry, bright, chilly. Been out walking and stopped to talk to lots of village folk. Passing the word around that our home is for sale. Would you believe that as I type, a gentleman has phoned to ask about an asking price.

Kitty How lovely for you, it sounds like a real treat.

Ella loved your post.

Marelli aren't you a tinker boots!

Gally take good care of yourself.

Gracesmum Scotland is a beautiful place. However, in inclement weather, [snow forecast in some places] it's wise to stay put.

Harri and Glass (hugs)

grace yes real snow the DGC have been out for hours playing and making snow angels but its started to melt now and they have come in shivering.
Aww ella I am pleased since is getting over her bug.

Fortunately, the second-hand furniture shop had nothing I wanted....had a good old gossip with the man in the shop next door to it, and now here I am, cosily typing away with a coffee at my side. DH suggested a walk in the sunshine, though...... Nah.....can't be bothered!

She sounds so lovely, Ella!

I'm still in pjs too,after a baby sitting night with dgd. She is a bit better than she was but still wants constant cuddles.
I'm shattered, but last night she made me laugh so much trying to flirt her way into getting some peeled grape, sitting on my knee with her little face inches from mine, with her mouth open expectantly!
This morning she sat in her high chair, eating a banana, and going "Ha ha haaaa"!
Adorable baby and happy nana.

Real snow, glass?? As in not slush, didn't mean artificial!! There, now I feel much less guilty about chickening out of a drive to Scotland!

Sitting in pjs when I should be getting showered and ready to go out for lunch. Bad weather caused a bit of a stir, lots of groans from DS who thought he was going to get some astronomy photos. Must do shopping, half term this week, fussy eater alert

Much the same today grace I am not used to milling around on a weekend as usually up with the larks to get up to the house but the snow has put a stop to that today,so just having another cup of tea then will brave the snow to go to the post office before they close.

I haven't done anything today - except make loads of cups of tea, read the newspaper, come on Gransnet and drink a cup of coffee. What do other people do on a Saturday morning?

I'm a little under the weather...I do believe it's a tiny wee hangover that I have . Wine doesn't really do me any good, so why did I drink so much of it last night ? I made a curry etc, etc and the next-door-neighbours were in to eat and have a drink......I think I just feel a bit tired perhaps....... However, I shall gird my loins and go and have a look at the second-hand furniture shop which might just have a bargain (that I didn't know I needed), as it's closing down soon.

I'm still in bed I never stay in bed - do you think I'm ill? I think I feel ok. I made another load of chutney (chutney any one?) yesterday after my practice run on wednesday; plum and apple this time but it looks a bit insipid as I hadn't got any brown sugar - oh, I expect it'll be all right. Maybe all that peeling and chopping has exhausted me, or maybe it's the thought of all the filing I have to do before monday - I really don't like paper work......
