Good morning everyone from a dry but rather chilly Torbay at only four degrees! I’m glad folks liked my photos yesterday and found the links interesting. It’s always good to receive feedback. My DH (safely 400 miles distant!!) says I’m like a collie as I thrive on praise! Don’t we all?!
I’m impressed by those of you who iron bed linen as lately, I’ve found that ironing has a low priority for me. It used to be one of the few household tasks I enjoyed but the effort for arthritic joints of erecting the board these days often leads me to smooth out items I would have ironed and fold them carefully to eliminate the need for it. What an admission! In summer, it will be less easy to avoid, not least as I hope to be socialising more.
Gagagran: It’s heartening that your DH is enjoying being in the garden and lovely to anticipate a visit from your bright, young DGD1 with lots of tales of her university life! I’m impressed by your walking of the SW coastal path, brook2704. Maybe, when you return to complete it, we could meet for refreshments. I know some good pubs and restaurants overlooking the views I posted yesterday! Scentia: W.M.Safari Park was a favourite day out when our children were young so I'm sure you’ll enjoy it next month. ?????
dragonfly46: what sad news about your friend's husband! ?Another to include in prayers with Stilllearning and her bereaved friend plus Tanith, whose grandson, Louis, is making good progress after surgery. ? I donned a hat in his honour yesterday when I ventured out to have my nitrogen filled tyres checked and fill up with petrol for the first time since November!
Nannytopsy: I’ll be interested to hear how the smart meter fitting goes as I’m due to have one fitted by Good Energy next Thursday, 1st April!
Thank you for all your kind comments re DH's vaccination but in France bureaucracy seems to slow things down. Younger friends of his have randomly received a vaccination if at their doctor's for other reasons. They lack the coordination which we have with the NHS. Nevertheless, it should happen soon for him, possibly through his pharmacist. I’m glad Marydoll received a supportive response from her GP.
That’s enough rambling from me .....! Happy weekend and sunnier skies to follow, according to our esteemed meteorologists! ???
