Have I missed something recently?
Afternoon Bek
Unless you come in here in the evenings you wouldn't know about it, so no, you haven't missed anything - apart from some rather nice pictures Malka has put up for our entertainment, (they're a bit norty
) though, so if you're of a nervous disposition, I suggest you avoid this place at night!

Yes grandma, that's the word I was looking for, but it was too early to think what I meant. I see what you mean, hmmmm, oh ok then, watershed is now set for 6 pm!!!

Chloe and I were out early poor Chloe up to the top of her legs in water as we made our way down the lane.
I then got the shopping done before the heavy rain sets in, the wind is very strong already.
Next job is to make a batch of fish pies to go in the freezer for baby Hannah lunches.
Chris
it is good to hear Gary is doing ok, I guess while recovering he will have days when he feels better and others when he is not so well.
Malka
things sound a little more hopeful where you are, it must be a nightmare for you living in those conditions. Take care..
Have an enjoyable day everyone
Morning Mini
Sounds like you've had a lot of rain there then
It's still just very windy here, no rain yet, but I'm sure that'll all change after dark.

she`s dead if she has scratched it
Crisis over, she is now asleep on said sofa (all intact) and bone has bee put away for now.
The reason she is having bones is due to the state of her teeth, she has some nasty tarter , one loose tooth and some epulis with tarter stuck under them.
I have even bought some chicken wings.........
now that was hairy giving her one, I was worried to death whilst she had it .
Can they be given frozen
I know the simple solution is to have a dental, but she is 10 , and I have no intention of giving her a GA, unless absolutely necessary, we have always had an on going battle with her teeth, but this time its far worse than normal, she does not seem to be in any pain, although I am not so daft to believe it must give her some jip, but not enough to warrant a full GA.
Anyway we will have a good go this way, they look better than a few days ago, and I am hoping a good chew on a bone (they are boiled or raw ) will knock it out
Oh well best get one,
Have a good one everyone
Morning Jackie
Oh noooooooooooooo to the burying of the bone in the new leather sofa
Zena prefers underneath her dad's pillow or in his shower
I agree with you about the GA, a friend of mine took her 13 year old pointer to the vet for tooth problems and he took out, I'm sure she said 10 teeth
Poor old man, he was so, so sorry for himself when I went to see him back at home
I think that was a bit OTT on the vet's part in all honesty at that age, but she never questioned it at the time, she just left him (the vet) to it, as yer do. I hope the chewing does the job for Millie.

I've just put a pan of Butternut Squash soup on for lunch , yum yum. The were on offer in Lidl the other day - only 52p for a big one. Wish I had got some more now.
I've just finished cutting all the knots off Taffy - round his trousers at the back get terrible with this weather
On the way back from this afternoons walk I'm going to be calling to see my Uncle to give him his birthday card for tomorrow - he's 93. That is if he is home, I've not seen him for ages as whenever I call he's gone out
. He lives by himself now & still does most of his own housework. His DIL does some of the heavy stuff for him.
Keep safe, warm& dry all of you
Afternoon Taffsmum
That soup sounds nice, could do with some of that myself for lunch with a nice chunk of crusty bread, so enjoy it. Oh don't talk to me about those knotty trousers, I have the same with Zena, but I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who resorts to cutting them off, coz they hurt and there is no way I could get a combe through some of those spindly knotted matts. Well done to that uncle of yours getting out and about so much at the ripe old age of 93
Jeesus, there's hope for me yet then!

Lady has just gone. She brought her father with her, and they were impressed by Cariad, who they said was very laid back (they've not seen her in full flight after a cat
) and looked a picture of health. She did her absolute best to be charming and helpful and was very loving, so she held the flatg high for Utonagan. She had loads of questions, which I hope I answered satisfactorily and they have now gone to have a talk about it. She does have horses, so big tick in that box and was very down to earth, she just has questions that she needs answering before she makes a decision, and I can understand that.
No rain here as yet, quite windy when I took Cariad for a walk round, am wondering if I should take Lona and Mabs for a quickie before the weather closes in, it is going quite grey and overcast now. I really thought I would wake up to torrential rain and black skies, I can see some of you have though.
Malka am glad it has gone quiet now, I was watching the news last night and it was saying there was a cease fire and it was quiet apart from the celebrations, and I thought not near Malka it isn't. Hope your bungalow looks after you better in future, fancy injuring you like that
Looking forward to the next picture, I'm getting quite feverish wondering how you are going to torment an old lady next
Wonder what Gordon has had for breakfast, and I hope your car starts Lynn, I have homestart on my breakdown cover, but more usually I can call on A Son to pop over and give me a tow or jump start.
Will take Lona and Mabs out I think and then go for more wood and then to the library to download piccies, yes I have a plan, just need to get of my btw then
Afternoon June
The lady sounds to have ticked most of your boxes, especially her asking lots of questions, that's a good thing I think, so hopefully she will be back once she's made the right decision. Glad Cariad behaved impeccably for you too, coz I do know of her past, when they had the nickname of "the norties", not that they were of course
Not much I forget ya know
! Glad you're getting more wood for our fire there, and don't forget the chocolates on your travels please, they're a greedy bunch in here in the evenings, me included! I sat in bed last night and ate a whole bag of Galaxy counters whilst watching Celeb
I never do that, I blame you lot!

Hi Bev, yes, that's what it does for me, because it opens up all your arteries so that the blood can get through quicker and easier, and it lowers your blood pressure, but that only lasts for a couple of minutes, you really ought to persevere with it if you have been prescribed it, as you will find, once you've got through the initial shock of it, the rest of the day you will be fine! Trust me, I used to use mine a lot before they sorted me out, but now I don't have to. Good luck Bev.

Anyhow they didn't turn up till just gone 8am this morning and we are now on a generator while they fix the problem.
I hope everyone is well and keeping safe.
Will catch up properly later.
Afternoon Lynn, and oh blimey
that must have been quite scarey for you all alone there
It would have freaked me out even though I prepare myself for anything like this overnight with a torch by the bed and just about everywhere else. Things go in 3's or so they say, so watch out, cos what with the car yesterday and then that
What a faff, let's hope they sort it out and quickly for you.
