ww I know yogi - it sucks - good job we have the thread for a laugh

 

night yogi

Ben is on the "Bit on the side" show, on 5 star

good morning It's dark & raining heavy outside! It's also grey in here that sometimes happens on the iPhone app when there are pictures in a thread, it will clear as soon as we turn the page.. So for now, although I can't see you, I still wish you a very happy Thursday (and dry)

Good morning everyone As you can see I finally managed to break through and escape to the outside world  (my last post was just an experiment to see how many replies can be nested before the alternating colours cease and that was the result)

 

It rained overnight and I think there may be some more showers today, but tomorrow looks very very wet here (which probably means it will be dry).

 

Summer, this page shouldn't be grey for you as so far there are no pictures

Good morning everyone Its a lovely breezy morning here.

 

EL that was a very interesting effect you created there, I have no idea how you did that with the nested quotes thing

 

Summer that sounds like such a lovely day, busy, productive, a little exercise, a little helping your MIL and an interesting programme to watch at the end.  I do hope your new Wilbur Smith book is a good 'un because I know, as I am sure do many others of us, how miserable it is when a really good book comes to an end and you still want to engage with the characters, the 'tell me more' feeling.

 

Thanks kattie for telling us about Ben's appearance on BBBOTS and the fact that he likes Bobby.  I have got the feeling (and hope) that Sally will go on Friday, she is every bit as bad as I thought she would be and maybe even much much worse than I thought she could be.

 

Have a good day, catch you later.

It wasn't me!

I never touched anything, I never posted anything, I am innocent I tell you!

I refuse to go back on that naughty step.

 

Good morning everyone. Sun is shining atm, sunshine and showers are forecast.

Thanks Katty, good to know that Ben likes Bobby.

Eldest son has a day off, so I am meeting him later on. Got to run around with the hoover and tidy up before I go out.

Hope everyone is well, catch up later.

Yogi, you are innocent and are safe from the naughty step (for now ). I think Summer probably needs to clean the screen on her iPhone so that it's no longer grey

Good morning x
Hope you are all well.
 for squiggle,s grandson 
Granddaughter delivered safely at nursery, mum is picking her up x 

afternoon I've managed to get the page to load it's literally an issue with the iPhone app if there's extra data to load. I can pop into my web browser to see the page but it takes 4 times longer.. It might be the calendar, because everyone's moving avi's are showing. It could just be a blip too. Anyway, hope you're all having a lovely day, our rain has cleared and it's a lovely sunny day now Skylark how old is your granddaughter?

Hi Summer , she is 3 x

Skylark, I was waiting for my son outside Morrisons' when I heard this conversation between a 3 year old boy and his granny:

Little boy, "Gran, I have a good idea."

Gran, "What's that, Darling"

Little boy, "Why don't we go to the toy bit first, and maybe you will see something you want to buy?"

He's a quick learner.

When we went into the shop, guess who was at the toy bit buying a toy for their grandson?

He will go far

He will Squiggle. The amazing thing was there wasn't a hint of obvious guile, it was all so innocently done.

Oh bless   She is a sucker too then !    Mine said yesterday at the shop, "They have sweeties in here " I said "oh have they " , she said "yes i will go get you one and for me too "   Mum doesnt like her having sweets so i think she thought, oh well if Granny is having one , thats ok 

I love it.

I dread to think what Mr Yogi will be like when we have grandkids, he can't even say NO to the dog.

They will have him wrapped round their finger in no time at all Yogi 

He'll be hopeless.

And he will enjoy every moment, I have so many precious memories of when my two were young.

Got my niece and hubby coming for tea around 5ish. They are in town for the Festival. Think i am organised !  Got chicken, various cold meats, tuna and assorted cheeses, with salads, and a french  loaf. I will put it out buffet style, and they can help themselves. They , initially, were going to my sisters, but somehow i got talked into having them , not quite sure how that happened ! 
I dont think they will stay long, as they will be off seeing some show , i expect.

That sounds lovely, Skylark - any room for a small one?

That's sounds delicious Skylark, I hope they appreciate the work you've gone to

You are all welcome ! 
Going off for a shower and posh myself up.
Bye for now  

Catch you later, Skylark.

Did someone say buffet?! Sounds delicious! Hope you have a lovely evening skylark I'm trying to remain motivated to do a workout after work, I know I'll feel rubbish if I don't do it so..

Summer, you put me to shame. The most energetic thing I've done today, is take the dog for a walk.

I cut the grass Yogi and I had to lie down for an hour   

Sounds delicious Skylark, have a good time. Wow Summer I am impressed, how long is your workout?

I know that feeling.

Hi all x
Just popping in to let you know the visit went well with the family 
Hi Velvet x
Son wants on just now, will be back later x

Lol grass cutting and dog walking in particular, are both valid physical activity I did 24 mins on the cross trainer, with a 5 min each yoga warm up & cool down. It's quite a quickie workout but is ideal when I've finished work late I feel good and just scoffed some lamb chops What are everyone's weekend plans? I'm heading down to Cambridge to celebrate my best friends 30th birthday, then on to Suffolk on Sunday to visit my mum

(I will still pop in while I'm away )

24 minutes on the cross trainer with 5 mins warm up amd 5 mins cooldown I'm exhausted just reading about it.

Lamb chops are delicious, I love 'em.

Nothing special planned for the weekend yet - hope you have a lovely time in Cambridge, Summer.

Glad to hear you'll still be popping in here though.

Just reading Summer,s activities makes me feel exhausted, no disrespect 

Me too!  Have a good time this weekend Summer, and thank you for popping in when you can, its a long weekend too, the last one before Christmas I think, suddenly brings it home to you how quickly this year is speeding past.

 

Think I'll head off and read my book, I'm a bit tired, must be reading about Summer's workout   Leaving a for the night owls.

I am off too, long day 
Goodnight everyone  

Goodnight Skylark and Squiggle.
