That’s encouraging YiaYia, hope he continues to improve. Thanks for the tip Brook, I’ll try checking the pollen count on the weather channel. Mine seems to be tree pollen, it’s worse when it rains as the pollen is carried down.
I remember that advert LadyLL, I must be terribly old 
I’ve ordered a print from the Royal Academy ‘You scream, I scream, we all scream for ice cream’. OH isn’t over keen so it will go in the kitchen or my bedroom.
Thank you soop stunning flowers. Not much I can do in the garden, I need to weed the back bed, but the ground is so dry, as it’s perennials, watering has focused on the veg and annuals.
We had rain for about 2 minutes today, see pic, because I’d hung washing out, most we’ve had for about 5 weeks.
Caught up with Monty and Beechgrove, then a long chat with our friends in the New Forest. We’re off to watch cricket at the Ageas with them in a couple of weeks.
Reassuring chat for you both Yiayia technology is brilliant isn’t it.
Football is on, must be good, MrJ is shouting!
Enjoy your evening x
It’s a balmy 19° here today, and I am feeling really hot after my 45 minutes Soop. It was good, I feel stronger for making the effort. Those dogs look a little perturbed Neine?
I meant to share this picture of our local woodpeckers a week or so ago, but forgot. Daddy woodpecker feeding a very demanding adolescent!
Naughtyneine Thank you for making me chuckle.
brook My nose has not ceased running for months on end. I hadn't considered hayfever until I read your post.
Urms I have noted that many people appear to have the most luxurious lashes. Maybe, if I was a whole lot younger, I would give them a try-out. I've a feeling, like you, that I would find them a mild irritation. I shall therefore save the £25 for something boringly useful.
Shazza Your evening with friends in Filey sounds lovely. Many years ago, I knew a couple who had a caravan in Filey. They enjoyed many getaway weekends in it. Their home was in Baildon.
Jax It will be a pootling Sunday for the Soops. I took a photo of the garden flowers to share with you.
Ladyleftfieldlover The bad lemon gets my vote.
Blossoming Right! I shall also pedal for 45 mins later this afternoon. It's all your fault. Thank you, anyway.
Maw I am not a football fan but at 5 o'clock I shall be rooting for the Lionesses in their bid to win the cup.
Grannygravy You are a trooper. 
Good afternoon my lovely fellow kitchener's... I'm glad that poorly people are improving/getting proper treatment/going home. So sad to hear of a young man passing away. It really is no age and I should think lots of us on here have children of the same age and can empathise at such a loss. Likewise lots of us will have grandchildren the same age as the little one murdered this week and that beautiful little boy murdered by the very person who was supposed to care for him as his Mother was deemed unsuitable. I take great comfort from my Catholic faith but in times like this when all I can do is pray for them and their loved ones I do struggle to understand...why.
This weekend we've been in Hampshire visiting the in laws. They needed a bank of very compacted earth removed and relocated to make the basis of a new path. I was armed with a pick axe and OH was shovelling and flattening. I had forgotten completely that this was on the agenda this weekend and had taken what my DOH refers to as my Daisy Dukes ( shorts to you and me) to wear in the garden and for the BBQ. I have long legs and the said Daisy Dukes are a bit short on material..I wasn't too sure why my FIL kept disappearing into his man cave until my MIL took the attached (I hope) picture. All I can say is my heart was in the right place even if my shorts weren't. !!!!
‘Evening All’.
How is everybody? We’ve just eaten. Pan fried (as they say nowadays) steak, onions and peppercorn sauce. Bluddy gorgeous.
I went to the salon this morning and had ‘Express Lashes’ put on. Not a strip. Individual lashes glued to the roots of my own. Never had them done before. Last about 2 weeks apparently. £25. Wish I hadn’t bothered (a) because they are so natural no-one has commented (b) they were an expensive treat as for £25 I could have bought an YSL or Tom Ford mascara at the airport duty free on Tuesday which would last me about 12 weeks and (c) they are ever so slightly uncomfortable. If I scrunch my eyes I can feel them - a bit prickly. Okay, I’ll stop doing that then.
I’m not sure how I’ll feel by bedtime!
Never mind. A one-off. Never to be repeated. By me, anyway!
