They better not, after I sorted it all out for them.

Right off to put the tinsel in the black one, got my gloves on, so no fingerprints  

 That's my girl.

Job done

Your secret is safe with me.

You know whats going to happen now..my grandaughter has started nursery and they will be asking for tinsel etc    Its always the same, as soon as i put things out, someone asks for them. Sods Law

You are right, it will soon be that time again and tinsel will be required.

Off now to open Skylarks Kitchen  Chat soon xxx

 See you later, Skylark.

And where I live we also have a green wheelie, a black wheelie, a green box, a small brown caddy bin, and a larger brown caddy bin. And a couple of weeks, the council announced that they were going to make random checks to makes sure that we were putting the correct things in the various containers and that we were not throwing stuff away in the black wheelie (for non-recyclable rubbish) which could be recycled.

 
I've just realised something. Locally most of us put out out bins etc last night for collection first thing this morning. Maybe someone was discovered to have put something in the wrong bin and that could account for that arrest outside my house early this morning, but 7 police cars to arrest someone for putting a stale crust in the black wheelie instead of the brown caddy bin is a bit of an over-reaction.

Hi El, we had an armed Police, ambulance etc last week, very near us. The whole area was sealed off. The only way we knew was my son,s friends were on facebook giving him a minute to minute detail. Nothing in the press...it was as if nothing had happened ??? But you never know, it couldve been a wheelie bin incident ......

You probably think i am losing the plot putting out tinsel, but i have so much of it, its getting on my nerves!! My daughter tells me to "get with it" and stop putting tinsel round mirrors, pictures etc.

 What happens if you have put something in the wrong bin?

My mum still puts tinsel around her pictures and mirrors and it always looks good.

They come with their dogs, break down the door, take you away and recycle you

I'll save you, El Loro. I'll bring Keira with me, 'cos she is well hard.

My daughter is having us Christmas day and i bet she has tinsel too, everywhere! Kids..why do we have them

'Cos we love 'em.

Thats for sure Yogi     Drive you nuts sometimes tho, but couldnt live without them

 My lot drive me mad at times, but I love them all to bits.
They have me wrapped around their little fingers - and don't they know it.

Tell me about it, i should have "mug" on my forehead !  I do have a private laugh when they think they have one over on me.....i did it first , but somehow they think i have just arrived from outer space or somewhere

Yes, it's fun when they don't know that we know what they are up to.

If they only knew Yogi...oops not going there

Ssshhhh, it's our secret.
Signing out for now, it's been nice chatting with you today.

Off for a bath, and settle. Up at 5.30   Nite nite xxxxxx

Nite Yogi, you too

Good morning everyone

I hope everyone is well and bug-free today

I still don't know what yesterday's police business was about. I have just been looking on the local news website and there's no clues there. Though if the person is still being questioned, if they are being charged the first public appearance would be at the magistrates court this morning. The big news locally is that a teacher who lives about a mile from me has admitted downloading child abuse photos over the last 6 years - there is nothing to suggest that children at his school or in this area were abused by him. Obviously he will be sent to prison and will never be allowed to teach again. Good riddance to him.

Good morning El Loro.

I hope they lock him up for a very long time.

And throw away the key.

Good morning Yogi I don't know if you ever look at The Little Cat thread over in the Lounge, but TLC has just had very bad news as her best friend Bagabones (a dog and her best friend and sometimes posted there) dies yesterday.

Morning everyone, I am stiff as a board this morning, loads of stretching over cutting down the plants in the pond etc.   Hope everyone else is feeling tickety boo and is not moving like an arthritic camel

Good morning squiggle
I'm currently ticking off a client's bank reconcilation so that's the tickety bit OK, but I'm not so sure about the boo bit

I hope you're not spitting like that arthritic camel . But how are you getting on with that memory foam mattress you bought, has that helped?

Good morning Squiggle, I have a little present for you. It's some Arnica Gel, for your aches and pains. 

El Loro, I have left a little message for TLC. Sad news.

I cannot tell you how wonderful it is! It is sheer sheer bliss and its a wonder I get up in the morning, I would recommend one to anyone and they are quite inexpensive considering.  No I am not spitting just moving v e r y   v e r y   s l o w l y.  Thanks for the arnica Yogi I don't know which bit of me to rub it in first

squiggle, your stiffness today has reminded me of the old "Slowly I turned sketch" from Abbott & Costello.

A bit ago I posted a Youtube clip of Vaughan Williams' The Lark Ascending. It was announced today that a choral work called The Cambridge Mass written by him over 100 years ago and never performed had been found at Cambridge University and will receive it's premiere next year.

This is a short clip of some extracts from the work played on the piano. I have posted it here as, although musically this is quite a find, it is of limited appeal, but I thought you might like to be among the first in the world to hear part of this.

Thank you, El Loro.

I loved the clip of Vaughn Williams "The Lark Ascending", too.

Good morning everyone.I hope you are all well.
I have to take the dog to the groomer's this afternoon. Luckily, she isn't as frightened at the groomer's as she is at the vet's.

Morning everyone

Yogi, you've beaten me to it this morning

And a good morning to everyone as well

Nothing yet on that police business on Monday, so I may have been dreaming that it happened.

Good morning squiggle,

Love your little prayer
