We seem to be mending a leak in the shower…. Just waiting for all the drips to be collected….

Standing on the edge of a pool with a timer in my hand at the gala this afternoon. Strange how humid it is on the poolside, yet the water feels so cool.

Looking at these views.

Lovely, Ginny - where are you?

Seems cooler again here today, which is good for GS1 who has a Sports Day. We shall go and watch this afternoon.

Getting ready for a day painting my pergola outside the sun room. A cloudy day is ideal because by the time the sun has moved round by lunchtime it’s hard to see what you’re doing. I’ve ordered some new patio furniture so I have to get on with it.

I have a rare week with few fixed points. I have long To Do lists so I had better get stuck in.

Swim, dog walk and then I must tackle my underwear drawer!
I’ve got an audio book to listen to whilst I do that.

Did changeover yesterday at our holiday let so today have hung out two lines of washing, mainly from there but a few bits from here.

Then had a very interesting appointment with letting agent as we are going back to long term letting after doing holiday lets.
Rental prices have soared so we are looking at much higher rent than 3 years ago. She reckons “it will fly.” We asked her if there was anything we needed to do and she said it was perfect as it is. She asked which agency we used for cleaning - it’s us!! we did laugh and she said the cooker was the cleanest she had ever seen.

I must get on with my own housework now. 🤣

Allotment again this morning then relaxing with Wimbledon this afternoon .

Have a good day, everyone.

Mollygo Thu 04-Jul-24 12:05:49

Stripped the bed and
Hung the washing out, very early, then stripped the bed (under sheet and washable duvet)with the misguided idea that the bedclothes would be dry by tonight.
Hung that out, then walked our dog down to the polling station.
Then raced back up the hill to get the washing in because it started to rain!
Must remember, I can’t race any more, never mind race up hill!
Resting with a cup of tea before lunch and waiting for the person coming to check our new boiler.
Think I’ll do the Telegraph and NewYork times puzzles.

One of our dogs had to go for an echo today as she has liver problems, then the vet decided to remove a lipoma from her leg as it had grown quite large. We have been theatre assistants today and now we are the recovery team. No food for her today which she will hate.

henetha Thu 04-Jul-24 23:21:31

Snap DanniRae. Polling station was quiet, Tesco was heaving....

LucyAnna2 Fri 05-Jul-24 04:31:04

Awake early, looking at the election results. Just dine Wordle and got it in two goes! Sainsburys delivery at 9 so maybe I ought to go back to sleep for a bit, if I can!

Mollygo Sat 06-Jul-24 20:23:38

Early dig walk. Shopping, lunch, then visitors who came to watch the football.
Dinner. Visitors have now gone on their way celebrating, so I’m walking the dog.
