Very touching story squiggle, very sad ending but a good lesson for us all Velvet, your mum sounds a gem, thank goodness you had her and she you two The evening has flown, I had my hair coloured, walked the dog and watched game of thrones- it was fantastic Sweet dreams to all who've turned in for the night

Evening Summer, have you changed your hair colour?

Hi yogi yes, and no.. I'm the same colour, just a couple of different shades weaves in. I wanted to try something a little different. I'll see it in better light in the morning but I love what I've seen tonight How was your evening? I'm just looking for your owl

Found one He's Scottish

I'm sure your hair looks lovely.

 Tartan owl is great.

My evening has been very relaxed, thank you.

Cute 

That sounds fab yogi, I'm quite envious, I love relaxing! How was your granddaughter when you bumped in to them? Hi moonie

Hiya Sweet  back 

She was fast asleep. DiL said she'd been a bit grizzly yesterday but was fine today. 

My sleepless night is catching up with me. I'd better toddle off to bed before I fall asleep on the couch.

Sweet dreams Moonie and Summer, see you tomorrow.

Aw I bet she looked cute sleeping though! I hope she's less grizzly tomorrow, maybe she just needed a cuddle from you

Goodnight Yogi. Sleep well   Sweet dreams 

Sweet dreams yogi I hope you sleep very well tonight

How is Bramble now Sweet?

Good morning everyone. Weather is overcast and rain is forecast.

Keira has an upset tummy - not the best start to the morning. She'll be on fluids only, for the rest of the day.

Squiggle, how's your back today? I was thinking about your home delivered groceries, and hope the delivery person put the bags of shopping onto your kitchen worktops, so you didn't have to lift the bags.

Going to get my haircut this afternoon. Last time, the hairdresser cut it too short, so I need to emphasise that I just want a trim.

Have a good day everyone.

 

 

Good morning everyone

 

Mainly sunny here, no wind, but cooler - may be showers later.

 

Squiggle, I hope your back has continued to improve

 

Yogi, I may get my hair cut this afternoon as well

 

Velvet, I don't eat Double Gloucester or for that matter Parmesan

If you get your haircut too, we can do a synchronised "twirl" later.

Yogi, we could do a synchronised twirl

Good morning everyone, quite a nice morning here.  Summer I would love to see your new (slightly different) hair colour.  I hope you slept much better Yogi and that you get a cuddle from your sweet granddaughter today, I bet she's looking bonny.  I do hope that hairdresser behaves and just does a trim, it's awful when they cut it too short.  I remember when my daughter was about 13 and went to the hairdressers, they cut it too short, they said how is it?  She said "fine" and then hid in a phone box until I could pick her up poor love.  I would love love love to see a synchronised twirl

 

Good morning Velvet (I know it's just banter and you know we all love ya ) did I ever tell you I knitted a donkey once for my daughter when she was very small.  It was bright orange, we called her Dilly Donkey (the donkey of course not my daughter ) and she loved her dearly. Hi to moonie, hope you are having a good morning.

 

And last, but not least, hope you are well this morning Skylark .

Squiggle, I how your poor daughter felt. I always say it's fine, even when I hate it!

Oh my! I've had a flashback to the one and only perm I had - I got home and burst into tears. 

Granddaughter is doing well. She definitely looks like her daddy did as a baby, but (fortunately) has her mum's button nose.

Good morning a chilly but sunny start here, it's lovely. We're forecast storms later I believe but I'm hoping that's not going to happen How's your back today squiggle? Can I join in the synchronised twirl, it sounds like fun!

Yogi I hope your hairdresser only takes a little bit off today, I hate it when it get done too short

Of course you can join in, Summer. Maybe we can get synchronised twirling recognised as an Olympic sport?

As I already mentioned, youngest son and his gf are in London. They went to see Pink in concert last night. Son has sent a text to say his gf surprised him with tickets for the Lion King show for tonight - Mr Yogi will be green with envy.

 

edit to add, he said Pink was amazing!

I'm going to be more specific with my instructions today.

Hi Yogi my back is a little sore again this morning, but then I had to change the sheets which didn't help but it had to be done.

Ouch, changing the sheets must have been difficult. Try to rest as much as possible today - easier said than done, I know.

I meant to say earlier Yogi, I have a little lean-to, the last owner called it a sun lounge but it's sort of a big porch.  Anyway I keep the washing machine, tumble dryer and a small fridge there and there is a long counter built over them.  The guys who deliver the grocery shopping put all the shopping on there and it is easy to just lift it down and put it away.

Squiggle, I hope you can take it easy now

 

Even men twirl

Aw squiggle, have a rest now changing the bed is achy enough for a healthy back. Well done for tackling it and I'm sure your bed will feel wonderful when you climb in to it tonight I've heard pink is fantastic live, I bet they thoroughly enjoyed the concert. I would love to see the lion king, that'll be brilliant too

I've watched the videos and I think we can do better than that, El.

That's good. I was worried about you struggling to lift heavy bags of shopping.

So which twirling method are you 3 going to adopt then?  They are both quite impressive.

Considering the state of my joints, I opt for the least bendy method.

Can I do a jump with my twirl? I've got that Friday feeling

I've had my hair cut and here's my twirl:

 

Then for those less energetic:

*feels giddy* 

Back from the hairdresser. *twirls* 

I'm happy with the result, she cut it exactly as I asked.

Summer, you can do a jump with your twirl, as long as I don't have to.

Hi Moonie, how did you get on with the workmen, is your door fixed?

Nice haircut, El.

Velvet and squiggle, until she died my mother would give money to the Donkey Sanctuary every year. She "adopted" a donkey called Donk Dean. Here he is:
