Good morning everyone, a lovely bright morning although it's cold it's also sunny.  I hope Bramble has woken up less grumpy and able to appreciate that she does in fact feel much more comfortable for all your hard work Summer, I hope she will let you finish today quite happily.

Enjoy your day everyone 

Good morning it’s a nice day here, despite it being a bit misty. I’ve just finished Bramble’s fur, it included wrestling with her a bit but she wagged her tail & licked me afterwards so I think we’re good I’m relieved it’s finushed! 

how are you all today? 

Phone call from what sounded like an automated recording from what sounded like an American woman saying that my internet address had been compromised from ISP addresses around the world, that it would be disconnected, and to press 1 to speak to a technician.

Obviously I didn't as it's a scam but it's different to the ones I've received before.

I suspect that if I had pressed 1, it would be a rather large phone cost.

A US rocket enthusiast is intending to build his own rocket to blast himself into outer space to see for himself if the world is round or flat:

What if the world is actually heart shaped?? 

Or torus shaped like a doughnut?

Goodnight and sweet dreams, Ros 

Hug for the night owls 

night yogi summer if you pop in aww bramble

Good morning everyone, it certainly feels cold this morning but apart from that it's quite a nice morning.

Enjoy your day everyone 

Good morning everyone

Sunny, cold and frosty here and will be colder next week. Various weather sites give different forecasts with some showing my area as getting down to -11 and others -4. Some indicating some snow showers, one showing 7 inches of snow next Friday in blizzard conditions. Some sites showing higher temperatures from Monday 5th March, others 21st March. So not consistent other than next week will be colder than at present with the possibility of snow.

I hope everyone has a good day

Announced this morning (from the BBC site omitting pictures to keep it shorter than it would be).

Forget Dua Lipa and Stormzy, this is the one we've all secretly been waiting for.

Kermit The Frog, Miss Piggy, Animal and co will bring their 'musical extravaganza' to these shores as part of their first ever European tour.

The stars of the 70s TV show will play two dates at London's O2 Arena on 13/14 July.

Kermit is being billed as the headliner (obviously), after stellar performances during their sell-out shows at the Hollywood Bowl last year.

Kermit, who is all over social media these days, said: “We’re thrilled to bring this first time ever live performance to all our fans in the UK.

“There’ll be music, comedy, incredible surprises, plus total and complete chaos. In other words: It’s the Muppets! Yaaaay!

We’ve wanted to do a show like this for a long time, and now - after finally getting all Miss Piggy’s luggage through customs - we have the chance to appear live at The O2 arena!”

Miss Piggy added: “I can’t wait to be there to entertain, astonish, dazzle and otherwise gobsmack all moi’s fabulous fans! Wear socks, sweetie, cause I’m gonna knock ‘em off.

"I will amaze everyone with this first-ever live performance....and, of course, for the official renaming of ‘The MOI 2’ arena.”

Tickets for the show go on sale next Friday at 09:00 GMT.

LOl I loved Kermit  

good afternoon all it’s pleasant but very cold here, we had a brilliant frost this morning 

are you already for a new weekend?! 

Summer, yes, my brother is soming later for one of his weekend visits

My brother has arrived on time. I hope everyone has a good weekend and keeps warm

El I hope you have a fabulous weekend with your brother, I’m glad he arrived safely  

🤔 *wonders which cakes they’re sharing this time* 

I’m going to Churchill shortly, so sweet dreams everyone

Good morning everyone

Sunny, frosty and cold here. Current forecasts indicate that Friday will be snowing all day with strong wind so be prepared to be house bound.

Having a pleasant weekend with my brother.

The cake my brother brought with him:

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning everyone, a beautiful morning here and looks like we're in for a sunny day.  My great grandson's 3rd birthday today! Amazing how the time has passed, it feels like only yesterday he was born.  I hope your weekend is going well EL, that cake looks delicious I hope you both enjoy it.

Enjoy your day everyone 

A very Happy Birthday to your great grandson, Squiggle, I'm sure he'll have a lovely day

It is a vey nice cake as you would expect particularly the ganache. It's the only chocolate I have during Lent. Though I may get little chocolate chip cookies on Sundays as apparently there's a relaxation for Sundays during Lent, that's what I've been told.

Evening all 

Squiggle, a Very Happy Birthday to your great grandson.

El, that cake looks delicious. I hope you are enjoying a lovely weekend with your brother.

Summer, hope you’ve had a good Saturday and not been working too hard 

No Moonie?

Goodnight and sweet dreams, everyone. Hugs for the night owls

aww happy birthday to your grandson

night yogi summer if you pop in

Good morning everyone

Cold and a bit frosty here. Sunny today though forecast is for it to be cloudy from tomorrow making it more likely to stay frosty for longer. A period of heavy snow forecast for my area on Tuesday but the major event remains to be on Friday with heavy snow and blizzards most of the day.

Thanks, Yogi, the cake is delicious

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning a cold & sunny day here, it looks gorgeous outside! 

Aw happy belated birthday to GGSSquiggle, I can’t believe he’s 3! I’m happy he brings you such Joy  

El that cake looks delicious! how is it? 

Thanks yogi it was busy yesterday, so I ended up having tea & a girls night in with a friend after work, with the usual giggles of course  

i hope you’re having a lovely weekend  

Good morning, everyone 

It’s very cold but bright up here. I put extra seed, lard balls etc out for the birds this morning.

 Good to hear the cake tastes as good as it looks, El.

I’m glad you had a fun evening, Summer 

Have a good day, all

Good morning everyone, a lovely bright morning but it is very cold.  I'm leaving the heating on all day and night now, especially with the children here.  Our little boy had a super birthday with loads of lovely presents, he is a real joy.  I'm glad your weekend is going well EL I hope your brother has a safe journey home again.

Enjoy your day everyone 

Summer, that cake is very nice as you would expect one based on a Mary Berry recipe. You can also get a carrot cake topped with cream cheese frosting and decorated with walnuts which is also based on one of her recipes. There is a celebration rose cake from her as well but that is meant for 20 people so would be too large for me. I'm glad you had a good evening

Yogi, that's considerate of you to put out more food out for the birds

Squiggle, I'm glad your little boy had a great birthday Thanks, I had a nice weekend with my brother and have just dropped him off at the station. He checked beforehand and the trains seem to be running to schedule.

Mmmmm I will look out for a Mary Berry cake in future, I think the chocolate one would be perfect for Easter  

I’m glad you’ve had a lovely time with your brother, El I hope he has a smooth journey home 

Thanks Summer The cake is about 6 slices, As the ganache is soft, expect to get chocolately fingers unless you use a fork

Evening all 

Squiggle, I’m glad the little one enjoyed his birthday

El, has your brother set off for home?

Have you been walking today, Summer?

I love eating cake with a fork! It lasts longer that way 😊 garr, I really wish I could eat some cake now 👀 who invented lent! 

Hi yogi 👋 I hope you’ve had a lovely Sunday? 🤗 no walk today, Bramble is a little under the weather so we’ve had a Sunday at home instead. I’ve pottered about and got lots done, and spent far too long in the bath  

Evening Summer.

Poor Bramble, is she still under the weather?

Yes, but I think she’s a bit better than yesterday thank you how’s your day been?

That’s good, hopefully she is on the mend.

I was busy in the morning, then chilled in the afternoon.
