Oops, I hit send too soon. George has Kate's colouring but he does remind me of William as a baby.

Evening all

Evening Moonie. 

Hi Yogi
*checks for PB teef marks*

 No injuries to report. Not yet!

Wait until the fangs teef get a little sharper

 I don't want them to get any sharper.

*makes popping fish noises*
Good fun yogi!

Hi moonie are you wrapped up warm?

I've got a headache, I want it to leave!

*passes rasp* Noooooooooo *slaps self* OUCH!

Don't look at yourself in a mirror, it isn't a good look.

Can you take something for the headache?

 ROFL 

Sweet
I am under my duvet

Awww have you taken anything for your headache Sweet? Maybe you should head off to beddybyes

I lasted until 10pm tonight, woohoo.

I am wilting now so I am off for my bath and then bed. Goodnight Summer and Moonie, sweet dreams.

Ros, I hope you have sorted out your pooter problems.

I took some tablets and am in bed

Sweet dreams yogi sleep well and enjoy your little visitor tomorrow

Goodnight Yogi. Enjoy your bath then sleep well and have sweet dreams

Good gal

Note for squiggle for tomorrow- I found a chocolate category on the quiz app! I found if very fascinating

Thanks moonie, it's probably all the chocolate I ate- 6 weeks worth in 3 days! Ok slight exaggeration but you get my drift

Sweeeeeeeeeeeet

Good morning everyone

 

On the cloudy side here but forecast to be a fair day.

 

Ros, I hope your computer problems have been sorted out or can be sorted out quickly.

 

Interesting interview on Newsnight last night with Helen Mirren talking about Shakespeare:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-27137037

She's got herseilf into the news by saying that children under 15 should be banned from reading Shakespeare but when I watch the clip I sense that she's not being over serious about that.

 

Good morning, everyone. The sun is shining atm, although the forecast says mostly cloudy.

Summer, I hope your headache has lifted and you feel better this morning.

Moonie, I have everything crossed that your council engineers turn up today and fix your boiler, as promised.

El, I agree that Helen Mirren wasn't serious. I think Helen was suggesting that 13 and 14 year olds should be told that Shakespeare was too grown up for them and they shouldn't read it until they were 16 - then they'd be desperate to read it.

Squiggle, has your grandson been given another appointment yet, for his shoulder?

Have a good day, everyone.

It's not April 1 by the way

Good morning a mild, overcast day here today. I feel much better this morning thank you, and have been a good girl by snacking on raspberries instead of chocolate.

Moonie I hope your engineers turn up early and get the boiler fixed

Summer, I'm glad you are feeling better this morning.

Ooh I haven't found that one yet, I must go look.  It was so annoying yesterday I passed a level and offered a new title but it disappeared before I could accept because this person I was playing kept insisting on a rematch and I didn't like to say no

 

Good morning everyone, hurrah it's dry today.  Great excitement because tomorrow Ryan is coming to re-line and clean my pond and put my new pond pump in.  It is an all-in-one which has a fountain but also a UV light and filter which should keep the pond nice and clear I hope.  And then in about 3 weeks I can get more fish, I have missed them.  I hope you find some nice neon tetras Yogi, they are beautiful fish, I love to see them swimming in a shoal.  Correction I am getting ahead of myself it's not tomorrow it's Saturday.

 

I hope your day goes well everyone

Morning everyone

3 hours and 20 minutes in to my allotted time slot for the boiler repair. Still no boiler repair

Sweet glad you're feeling better this morning

Have a good day everyone

Waiting is so annoying moonie, especially when you dare not put the Hoover on or take a shower..!
I hope they arrive soon

Squiggle, that's exciting, I bet you can't wait to have the pond active again

I've acquired a new skill- sheep detective
Yesterday when I was out walking,  I was approached by the countryside ranger and a farmer who were out searching for some missing sheep. Some vandals had cut a fence and the sheep had either escaped, or been stolen.
I hadn't seen any but the chap have me his card anyway and I promised to spread the word.
Then, as I was out this morning with Bramble, I found them!! I left a message on the rangers voice mail telling him where I'd seen them. He rang me to say thank you, but seeing as it was 3 hours before his shift started, they had wandered off again. I saw them next to the field they've escaped from- I think they wanted to be back in with their friends, so they can't be far away.
I'm glad they're not stolen and hope they're soon back in the farmers custody

Well spotted sheep detective Summer Sheep are adventurous little rascals, always trying to escape.  I remember once driving up one of our lanes and there in the middle of the road were 2 sheep, well they took off and ran ahead of the car - I felt we were sheep herding - and got back to their field and then they stood shivering outside the gate having forgotten how they got out.  I can still see their little bottoms quivering in fright.  The friend whose house I am going to later tells a different story.  She was out once and came across a lamb, sweet lady that she is she bundled it into her car and went in search of the farmer.  When he saw the lamb in her car he was very scornful and said 'what did you do that for'? and was not the slightest bit interested   I suppose to him a lost lamb wasn't worth looking for.

 

Moonie I hope you are not kept waiting long.

Fankoo Squiggle and Sweet
We have our own Sherlocketta Holmes
Good spot Sweet

Moonie, it's now half way through the allotted time span for the workman to materialise to repair your boiler.

 

Summer, well done on your sheep detective skills I'm surprised that the farmer didn't go out straightaway to retrieve the sheep, and squiggle, your second story about the uninterested lamb is in contrast to the famous parable from Luke chapter 15:

 

1 Now the tax collectors and sinners were all gathering around to hear Jesus. ² But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”

³ Then Jesus told them this parable: ⁴ “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? ⁵ And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders ⁶ and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ ⁷ I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.

 

 

Oh Sweet, I have some hand cream you would love

 

 

Your hands smell of choccie after you have used it

Well done on spotting the lost sheep , Summer. Hopefully they will soon be back where they belong. 

Squiggle, I was shocked to read of the farmer's lack of interest in his lost lamb, and his appalling attitude to your friend who was only trying to help. Someone ought to have sent him a copy of the parable which El posted.

Your pond is going to look lovely when it is relined and has a new light and filter. I find watching fish, in a tank or a pond, is soothing and relaxing.

Moonie, I hope your engineer turns up soon. There is nothing more frustrating than waiting and waiting for someone to turn up.

 

Just what crossed my mind as I was writing it EL

I think that farmer was very ungrateful, you'd think he'd have been pleased that someone kept his lamb safe


Any news yet moonie?

Exactly Sweet :nods:

The boiler engineer came at 12-10 and he is still here but me heating just came so he must be near to getting it finished

Haven't noticed any leaks yet

Hope you're having a good day Sweet

Moonie, that sounds promising

 

El, the engineer has just left and I have heating and hot water again

Yippee

Yaaaaaay!!!!!! That's great news moonie are you going straight in the shower/bath?!

Love the chocolate hand cream btw
