Aw thank you to everyone for my birthday wishes! You are such a kind bunch of people. I ❤️ being part of this gang.

Hi Doodle ?

No cake to share I’m afraid. Hey ho.
I’ll just enjoy the wine tonight then ... ??

Ash so pleased that your ginger moggy is safe and getting re hydrated. Hope the vet gives him a clean bill of health too.
'Happy Birthday' Urms from a fellow Mancunian. Hope you are having a lovely day.

* well, not we’ll

Nannagarra Sat 27-Aug-22 15:28:25

I love to see we’ll polished shoes GrannySomerset. It’s a rewarding activity I find.
Have you tried these aggie?

Good afternoon all,

I haven’t read through all the posts yet but just wanted to say that I’m so pleased that your cat is alive Ash and that you managed to coax him down from the top of the barn. I hope that the vet will be able to sort out the problem with his mouth ?.
Also thank you to BlueSapphire for posting the photo of that glorious sunrise - such beautiful colours, stunning.

I hope everyone is well. I’ll go back to the posts now and continue reading them.

Happy Anniversary Mr&MrsMegs ??

Good afternoon, as it is now, not sure where the morning went tbh!
Happy Birthday Urms, Happy Anniversary to Mr and Mrs Megs too.
I like the sound of that liquid talc GM as I often have that problem and usually use sudocrem which can be a drying of the skin though.

Happy Birthday Urms ???

That song was “Where do you go to my my lovely” Beautiful haunting song. Lovely place too.

Glad that Cooper is safely retuned to you Ash.

gM my gp said that problem was a fungal infection and not to wear underwired bras. Trouble is I now have to wear all cotton ones and getting the right fit by post seems impossible.

Good morning all from a very sunny Co Armagh, it is definitely autumnal though
I have been cutting down the sugar snap vines , I picked two punnets of pods from the pruning , so I left the lower green growth to see if we get a few late pods
I was showing middle son my watering routine in the greenhouse , but judging by the eye rolling I’m not sure if he will be complying ?
Grandson was shaking his head , I’m not away for a while yet so maybe I’ll cut back on the watering . I’ve had tomatoes ripen by hanging up the vines in the kitchen , so I could just let them dry anyway

Doodle Sat 27-Aug-22 11:14:25

Happy birthday Urms ? ???. Hope you have a good day. Any cake left ?
Please to hear that Cooper has been found safely Ashcombe
Marydoll keep safe, hope your results come through soon x

I am enjoying the vicarious cruise and excellent photographs but fear I have lost my nerve over travelling at present.

Have dealt with some long overdue polishing and feel better for it though recognise that my various small treasures will be binned eventually since none of the next generation polishes shoes, never mind silver or brass. Nobody is remembered for having shiny brass!

Nannagarra Sat 27-Aug-22 11:05:50

? harrigran. It’s heartwarming to read of your time together.

Taichinan Sat 27-Aug-22 10:56:55

Love the photo of the balloon Baubles. So wonderful to watch - but you'd never get me up in one!!

Kalu Sat 27-Aug-22 10:56:42

A late good morning from Glasgow. A welcoming sunny day to now enjoy at leisure after a busy morning making phone calls on DH’s behalf plus a lovely surprise visit from one of my cousins who is a medic and a great support to us.

I am so relieved to hear Cooper has been found Ash. Lots of TLC will help him recover from such a scary ordeal.
Happy Anniversary Mr. & Mrs. Megs and Happy Birthday Urms.

Best wishes to all for a good day.

Blossoming Sat 27-Aug-22 10:52:14

Happy Birthday Urms??

So pleased Cooper turned up Ashcombe

Good morning all from sunny South Lanarkshire.

It’s perfect weather for our balloon festival I’m delighted to say.

Photo of one of the many balloons which flew over our house this morning. The DGDs who are here for the weekend we’re captivated.

I’ll catch up with the thread later.

Have a good day everyone.

Happy Birthday Urms..have a wonderful day ???

Taichinan Sat 27-Aug-22 10:21:58

Good morning all. A "Fifty Shades" day in the autumnal Angus coast. So glad Cooper is safe (if not sound) Ash and Happy Birthday to Urms.
Love reading about everybody's travels and doings. My own doings will involve a wee blether with Lovely Gardener who I know is around somewhere (it's pay day!) with his grandson who is Grass Cutter-in-Chief, and then just bits and bobs involving Wordle and a good book via a spot if housework.
That's a great suggestion for you from Angela re the liquid talc Grandmattie - a lot cheaper than a new bra!
Enjoy your Bank Holiday all x

Good morning Mick and all from Sunnyside northwest coast.
So pleased to have an ‘empty’ today after a busy week.
Meeting with solicitor, DS and my DD, she being on FaceTime in the south, for general chat about ‘going forward’ as my DD calls it after DH death. Good meeting re releasing monies, house, finance etc. Now I have to locate some share certificates. My DD recorded the meeting which is very efficient.
DS and I then had a late full English at a greasy spoon he favours. Such a huge helping, I brought two rounds of toast home and had them with jam later.
Just pizza in the evening and we watched University Challenge and Gogglebox as we always do.
I seem to have a second sense where my DS is concerned. He popped out for a drink with an old friend and as the evening went on I thought I would put the outside and porch lights on as more welcoming (stopped using them to save leccy) and he turned up at that very moment. Happens a lot.
So pleased re Cooper Ashcombe, love my cat, birthday greetings Urms thoughts to Chrissielou and congratulations Mr&Mrs Meg

Nannagarra, my meals are shared with son in law, my DD and SIL live in Belgium but he has remained in the UK since my DH died snd takes me shopping and to medical appointments.

Grandmabatty Sat 27-Aug-22 09:39:54
