aww yogi that is fantastic news

night yogi moons velvetand summer if you pop in

Good morning everyone

 

Nice weather here today with plenty of blue sky.

 

Yesterday's meeting with clients went well. I have another one this morning and yet another one this evening.

 

On the way to the client yesterday there was a cyclist in front of me who was cycling in the middle of the lane making it impossible to overtake without going into the other side of the road. There were no vehicles in front of him, and no parked cars. Cycling moderately fast, but not at racing speed. We came to a section where there are speed cushions, one on both sides. Cyclist veered to the centre of the road rather than to the left of the cushion. He went off down another road at the crossroads so I lost sight of him.

 

Good morning everyone.

 

It's raining up here.

 

El, I bet you were glad when you were able to go in a different direction from the cyclists? I hope the clients' visits go well.

 

Grocery shopping today. Any cake requests?

 

Have a good day everyone.

 

 

 

 

Yogi, my concern was the safety of that cyclist as an inconsiderate driver could have just tried to overtake and risk causing an accident.

No doubt, moonie will have some cake requests

 Morning all.
Thats good news Yogi x
Havent had a TV for 2 days. Something amiss with the aerial i think , hoping it will be fixed today. Dont half miss it when you dont have it. 3 TV,s in house and not one works
Probably wont be around till Monday, got a few things on and a busy weekend.
Take care everyone

 

Good morning Skylark.

I hope you get your ariel fixed today. Mr Yogi would be pulling his hair out after 2 days without TV.

Have a good weekend and take care.

Good morning oooooh I've really missed you guys how are we all?

Yofi that's fantastic news from the hospital and I'm over the moon that you won't need lengthy infusions, I hope you soon learn how to self inject medical progression is super

Aw velvet thank you. I'm alright, just going through a break up with my long term partner. I've just moved into a new place and have been very busy organising everything that comes with it, as well as going to work as normal. I have a fantastic support system though and my friends have been amazing

Me me me me pleeeeeeeeeeeeeze 

 Already have El 

Good morning everyone, been busy hosing down the decking.  All the bits and pieces left after the scaffolding came down made it look really messy and it was driving me up the wall.

 

Annoying about your TV aerial Skylark, have there been high winds there to knock it off course so to speak?  Enjoy your weekend if you don't get back on here, hope the TV is fixed by then.

 

Velvet we all miss Summer

 

Yogi I read that as moonie meaning you keep freezing too gave me a mental picture of a robotic Yogi!

 

Lots of roads are very narrow down here EL and on the road which climbs up to the coastguard station it is all twisty and turny, no possibility of overtaking and on my way to church a while ago two cyclists were riding two abreast which on a narrow road like that is, as moonie would say, very norty.  As you say it can lead to a dangerous situation not only for the cyclists but for motorists too if someone gets impatient at being stuck behind a slow cyclist especially as this is quite a steep hill and they would not be going fast.  Luckily there was no other traffic and I had enough visibility to safely get past.

 

Enjoy your day everyone.

Morning everyone  

Breezy here and the sun hasn't made an appearance yet either 

Sweet, glad to see you are settling into your new place and getting the support you are 

Yogi, any cake would be good 

Skylark, hope your telly gets sorted and soon 

Squiggle and El have a good day both 

Toodles for now  

Metal Yogi 

Back from the clients meeting this morning, Meeting went well, but very slow journey on the way back due to workers clearing verges on the A40 stretch of road between the Over and Ross roundabouts and the effect on roads coming on to that stretch. A group of young women with a pram crossed the road near the Apple Tree Inn and walked towards the stretch of the A40 where the work was being carried out. They were walking faster than drivers were. I eventually caught up with them when they got to a bus stop and were waiting for a bus.

 

Squiggle, I can well imagine the roads in your area being very narrow and steep. There are roads like that in the Cotswolds and there's one near Painswick which I've never been down which is so steep that it looks like a 1 in 2 gradient.

 

Skylark, I hope your aerial gets sorted out today so you can watch television

Summer, I'm glad you are getting the support you need at a time like this

Hehe thanks velvet I've had a few offers lately which embarrasses me but I'll have to get over that won't i lol

I missed the cake request! lemon drizzle please yogi

Squiggle, is your work on the house complete? And how's the baby?

That's so unlike you Sweet

 Mr Yogi would add an 'n' to that!

 norty Mr Yogi  

So good to have you back with us, Summer, and I'm glad your friends are rallying round.

 He's a cheeky devil!

 

 <- lemon drizzle, just for you.  <- Madeira Cake and Belgian Choux buns for everyone else.

Yummmmmy
Ta muchly Yogi

 How did I miss this earlier?!

 

I love you too, Velvet!

 

I had blackbirds at my kitchen window today, looking for some raisins.

Off to get some ironing done, will be back later.

Ohh joy, sympathy  

See you later

They are missing their PB treats

Nice to see you Summer yes all finished, scaffolding down, grass cut, getting back to normal.  The house looks amazing, my grandson has painted the lounge and is now painting the conservatory.  Lot of work there as because the roof always leaked it was damp and insects were always getting in.  Now with a new tailor made roof and a new door it feels so different and hopefully when he's finished it it will be lovely.

 

We have plans for the family to come over tomorrow.  The baby has just begun to giggle, so I am looking forward to it, I love a baby's laugh.

 

I am glad things are coming together and that you have so much support.  An exciting time, is Bramble adjusting to the new home well?

Sounds idyllic Squiggle  

Squiggle, I hope you have a lovely time tomorrow with your family

I'm off in a few minutes to this evening's client meeting. It will either be a straighforward meeting or a highly technically complex meeting if my client raises the issue of private residence relief for capital gains tax on their house abroad which they own - they rent their house here so no if they can't get the relief on their foreign property, they would have to pay tax on that property if they sell it. I've got some technical material on this off the HMRC site - it runs for over 100 pages - it's that complex.

 

Me being checked out up the park a little while ago 

 

 

I hope all goes well with the meeting EL, you are well prepared.

 

Lovely photo moonie, I think they want to know what goodies you have for them - do they like cake do you think?

Thanks Squiggle
Methinks they will eat anything 

 She is visiting tomorrow afternoon for a few hours, so I'm sure they'll get plenty of raisins then.

You and they will be pleased to bits then

Squiggle, have a lovely time with your family tomorrow, and have lots of cuddles and giggles with the baby.

 

Moonie, I love the swan and cygnets pic. They are gorgeous and look in very good condition.

 

El, I hope the meeting went well and wasn't too complicated.

Ta muchy. I am still getting the videos and other piccies together. Not forgotten

Definitely!

Mr Yogi has been putting together a little Ikea armchair for her, and a little pink table and chair for her to do drawings and puzzles on. He's very proud of himself, but says we better see if they collapse when PB sits on them, before he starts boasting. 

Looking forward to seeing them.
