Good evening everyone.    Glad you got on okay at the dentist Squiggle.  Hope I only need a clean and polish tomorrow.

 

Just a quick visit before No.2 son arrives.  Having read three Milly Johnson books in a row I thought I would try another author for a change.  While we were waiting for my penfriend to arrive at Heathrow I was looking through the books in the W H Smith store and bought four!!  The one I've just finished was "The House by the Sea" by Santa Montefiore.  If you get a chance to read it then I can highly recommend it.  I thoroughly enjoyed it.  I will be starting on Milly Johnson's "Summer Fling" next week when No.2 son has returned home.

 

If I don't get a chance to come in and catch up with you all for a while then I will still try and read your posts.  Love you all.  Speak soon. 

Such a sweet thing this afternoon.  This jay (no no that one, the bird ) flew down with a nut in its beak, then it buried it in my lawn, stabbed at the area a bit and finally covered it with a leaf (which blew off about 2 seconds later) I thought that was so sweet, but I hope it remembers where it put it and I don't get a tree growing there

I am in complete agreement with the columnist (as you may have guessed).

Bring back Bill and Kate!

 

We had a lovely lunch with eldest son and our DiL, and Mr Yogi is very pleased with his new car.

 

Fingers crossed the filling stays in place and the dentist is able to save the tooth, Squiggle.

 

Joyron, enjoy your time with your son.

Jays are beautiful birds, Squiggle.

I wish I was only 40!

Little boy crying in tescos. Man says " are u lost"? boy says "yes" man says "whats your mummy like"? boy says "big c*cks and Bacardi breezers"

I saw that 4 members of UB40 were declared bankrupt today

Pirate, you're naughty.

 

BTW, have you been to the dentist yet?

i deserved that for a crappy old joke

Despite 50 hits in British charts - shocking really.

no

ive used mouthwash, asprin and alcohol lol

its called living beyond your means

too many of them buying big houses in jamacia

and expecting the hits to roll on and on

but they didnt

What are you like?! Get to the dentist and get it sorted. You'd feel so much better if you let the dentist sort you out with some antibiotics.

I know you are right but it's still sad that they have ended up in this position.

Going to have an early night and giving BB a miss. Catch up tomorrow.

Hugs for everyone.

I love UB40's music, sad that they have been declared bankrupt.

 

Night Yogi, sleep well, I'm off too so catch up tomorrow peeps happy chatting night owls.

aww missed everybody

night yogi and squiggle

yogi will miss you in the BB fred

Aw squiggle I should imagine that jay was a delight to watch! Joyron I hope that you have a lovely visit with your son Yogi & skylark, hope you've had a lovely evening Sweet dreams all

Good morning everyone

 

Cold but sunny out there today.

 

I recorded Top Hat at the weekend and watched it yesterday evening. I've seen it before but it is one of the best musicals ever made and Fred and Ginger are at their best. My favourite routine is near the beginning of the film when they get caught in a storm and take shelter in a bandstand:

Good morning, everyone.I hope you are all well.

Sun is shining, although there has been a sharp drop in temperature.

Love the clip, El.

 

 

Morning it's bright & sunny out there today, but I haven't left the house so I'm not sure how cold it is hehe El I'm going to look at that clip via my web browser..

Good morning, this drop in temperature is coming as a bit of a shock isn't it?  I hope we are not in for another harsh winter.

 

I enjoyed the clip EL.  Fred Astaire always looks to me as if, should he choose, he could just float up in the air, he is so light on his feet.  What a pity that we seem to have lost the art of romance nowadays, I don't think Jay writing his message to Loo in blood quite cuts it do you?

Morning all 
Been out with the dog and i can confirm its freeezing cold 
Had to drag son out of bed this morning, he didnt want to go to work! 
Nice clip El  

Not watching BB means I can't really say, but it doesn't seem very pleasant, but then Angelina Jolie displayed her husband's name on the back of her shirt painted in her own blood at her wedding to Jonny Lee Miller back in 1995.

Blood should be used for body functions in my opinion, there's plenty of other things they could use to write with

El that clip is delightful, thank you

Have been watching the Dale Farm eviction all morning. What a carry on! 
Must get on, back later xx 

Don't give Jay ideas

I've been out with Mr Yogi in his new car - had to listen to Sounds Of The Seventies, followed by The Bee Gees. Mr Yogi insists in joining in the singing, which means lots of "Oh yeah Baby, take me, take me!"

 

I am going to be really annoyed if BB don't evict either Jay or Anton on Friday night.

I will stop watching, if they don't.

 

Squiggle, I'm on Chapter 26 of my book - so much for two chapters per day.

Hi Yogi, hope you enjoyed the outing in the new car, Mr Yogi seemed to anyway 
These current twists in BB are annoying , to say the least.
I have been on the Charles Rennie Mackintosh site. think i have finally found a present for my sister, at last !   Earrings from my son and something for her wall from me. I have also been doing Moonpig cards , thats all sorted .My daughter and granddaughter getting their own gifts. 
  This from me, its painted on glass, hope she likes it

These are the earrings 

Skylark, that's quite a striking copy of a painting by Mackintosh. At least I assume it's a copy as the original would cost a fortune (for the others - it's from his Rose Boudoir from 1902).

Yes its a copy El   I love his work, hope she does too. If not i shall have it 

Skylark, I love Rennie Mackintosh artwork and designs - I'm sure your sister will love the painting on glass and the earrings, too. Good choices.

Thanks , hope so. Just noticed i spelt his name wrong  Have changed it !

I never noticed.

I am doing quite well, considering i was out with mad nurses yesterday, and the coffee sort of turned into a glass or two of wine 

I'm pleased because that means you're enjoying it

 

That's a lovely painting Skylark, and beautiful earrings too

As long as you had a good time.

Yes it was fun, at the time....................

Off to get food sorted for son. Bye for now
