My hair after second post lockdown haircut
Sat out in sun this am, hence redness!

Hellogirl I am pleased to hear that CPL came up trumps. Now what does Billy look like and what age is the little mite? He does not realise yet what a lucky young man he is about to be, landing on all four feet.

corner that sounds good if you are meeting up with your family today but if the weather is remotely like here you will need a pair of wellies and an umbrella, or better still, stay indoors.

Fingers firmly crossed ? for you Hellogirl. ?‍⬛
Happy Birthday to You ? cornergran ? ? ? ?
Enjoy your special day.
Hi Galen your natural coloured hair is beautiful.
I’m due a 2nd trim since December this week, on the same day as my 2nd Covid jab. 2 appointments in 1 day! Oh the busy-ness of it ?
Have a good day all kitchen friends - Keeeeep dry!

Puzzler61 Sat 08-May-21 09:27:50

*next week I mean.

Grandmabatty Sat 08-May-21 09:28:47

That's great news Hellogirl. He'll be well spoiled, I'm sure.

Hellogirl1 Sat 08-May-21 10:31:11

CharleyG, Billy is black and white, and va very fit and healthy nearly 12 year old. I did say I wanted a younger cat, then thought that a youngster would be left stranded when I pop me clogs, so decided to have an older cat. If you want to see him he`s on the CPL Sleaford site.
Galen, you haven`t changed a bit since we met in 2012, how do you do it? Wish I could say the same!

That’s such good news Hellogirl Billy will have such a lovely home with you.
Beautiful hair Galen Doodle and Muse it does give you a boost to get it done.
Feeling as washed out as the weather not like me at all?just need the pain meds to kick in.
Number 3 son has gone on a fishing weekend staying in a bivouac,great weather for it?just hope the fish are biting. More diamond art today,a week to get it done.!!
A very happy Birthday *Cornergran have a great day????

Hellogirl1 Sat 08-May-21 10:35:47

Yia, your son should be fine, my hubby used to say that fishing was better in the rain.

Charleygirl5 Sat 08-May-21 12:57:35

Hellogirl he really is a handsome young man and reading his blog he is excited about going to a new home. The cats there are going to new homes fairly speedily but CPL was always proactive. I am so pleased you have chosen an older boy because he would have been overlooked by many. He will soon be snuggling up to his new mum in a warm house.

cornergran the rain has affected my brain I forgot it was your birthday so happy birthday. You could have chosen better weather.

I have switched the heating on as I am cold.

Susan Little Henry's photo made me smile. I love the pose and the rolled up trouser leg. A keeper! grin

muse The photographs are delightful. I was hoping for news from your dear son. Also hoping for positive news of your granddaughter.
Your hair is stunning.

As is Doodles. So, so glossy. x

Puzzler Hair has a will of it's own. A bit like our pussy cat, Fern. Stayed overnight in the apartment, devoured a huge breakfast and promptly took her leave. wink

Brook As always, beautiful photography.

Urms What is Gogglebox? I am well out of the loop.

Nannytopsy I envy your skill. If I had created the throw, there would be no end to my bragging.

Hellogirl I've a very good feeling about Billy. Oh my goodness. I now understand that Billy has a home. GREAT news! sunshine

soop Sat 08-May-21 14:32:09

corner I swear that our kitchen gets busier by the day. I'm always left way behind.
Pleased to hear about the replacement car.

soop Sat 08-May-21 14:36:49

Galen Where are your pearls? You do have a healthy complexion. Your hairstyle suits you, too. As Hellogirl says, you haven't changed since we first met umpteen years ago.

I spied a heron on the edge of the beach yesterday. It was some distance away. I managed to take a fairly decent photograph.

soop Sat 08-May-21 14:38:54

Almost overlooked last night's Kintyre sky...

soop Sat 08-May-21 14:39:55

I am feeling uplifted today in spite of one saggy breast and drop-bot. grin

Bellanonna Sat 08-May-21 14:42:38

That’s positivity for you soop. You’re an inspiration! ?

soop Sat 08-May-21 14:43:30

Bellanonna grin

Galen Sat 08-May-21 15:28:26

soop my secret is keeping a portrait up in the loft!?

Grandmabatty Sat 08-May-21 15:40:41

Galen is your name really Dorian? Soop lovely bird and lovely sunset. I was babysitting today. I've just fed dd and dgs and they are away home. It was like a scene from The Birds as my roof had crows sitting on it, looking down at us. Creepy. I'll tidy up the mayhem and then have a cuppa.

Puzzler61 Sat 08-May-21 15:40:42

soop what a sanguine lady you are. ? and your photo’s are a delight to see as always.
My DD had a heron at the edge of her garden this week - she is quite a distance from any water.
They are very graceful.

Jaxjacky Sat 08-May-21 15:40:55

Hi all, lovely throw nannytopsy could do with that today, it’s wet, windy and horrid, hunkered down with the heating on. Thank goodness the CPL have a touch of sense Hellogirl, welcome to Billy. Yia hopefully the painkillers have long ago served their purpose and muse you have pain of a different sort, it can only get better?.
The hair has been cut, I’ll throw a colour on tomorrow, if I knew it would go the lovely shade of Galen’s I’d leave it. Mr J has just gone up the tip with volumes of packaging from the new furniture we sorted yesterday, his team beat Spurs earlier, so he’s happy. I feel an Indian delivery for dinner looming on this very unseasonable day. ttfn

Jaxjacky Sat 08-May-21 15:42:03

PS shame I can’t dress tidily!

Puzzler61 Sat 08-May-21 15:45:34

You’ve joined the Coiffured Hair Club Jaxjacky .
All the kitchen peeps that have had new hairdo’s this week look so chic!

Doodle Sat 08-May-21 15:54:29

Your hair looks very nice too Jaxjacky . I wonder what the hairdressers are doing with all this hair they are cutting off.
Galen your hair is a lovely colour.
Lovely photos soop
corner did someone say it was your birthday. Many many happy returns ????????. Hope you have a lovely day.
Lucky Billy. Hope he arrives soon. I’m just going to check up on him on the website.
muse still got my fingers crossed and prayers for your son and DGD.
Maw hope Rosie has settled in well and proving to be a good companion,
Take care all ?

Galen Sat 08-May-21 16:00:26

You’re all very kind about my hair (lack of ) colour.
Just the luck of my genes I guess!

BladeAnnie Sat 08-May-21 17:14:50

Good afternoon all - I've been absent for a few days so I will have to look back at everyone's news. I will say there's some lovely hair photos - looking good all you glamorous ladies flowers. I'm holding out until 19th - 8 days before our big day - to have mine cut. I can only hope it turns our as well as all I've seen in the kitchen smile. Pizza and garlic bread on the menu tonight - the diet is on hold for today!! Hope everyone has a pleasant evening
