Good afternoon, Mollie & Baz.

Juat waiting for Podiatrist, due at 5pm, had some nice pics and vids from son in the Philippines, he has the Christmas tree up all ready, the little ones will love that.

I have sorted the Ocado delivery for Friday, not ordered meals as such, i saw a note on the Ocado page that said suggest items you can't find, so i have filled in the fantastic Sushi collection i used to get from Iceland and also i put down the 20g portions of jam, got the last ones from Amazon, the portions don't go off, and you can usually buy a 20 pack or 40 or even 200 & you don't need to keep in the fridge and i don't think they go off either but the Jars of jam seem to go mouldy and i have to throw them away.

I have only watched the 1st show of BB, don't like the hosts & didn't like the way BB split the group to start, i hate production interference, but i will try and watch more soon.

I have Darts tonight and tomorrow night and day and night all weekend so happy about that, also F1 so all good on TV.

Hope Mollie has had a good day.

Both

at last I have got a few mins to post. Don't seem to have much free time lately. Washing and housework is endless with 4 of us and a pup.  And I have been out for brekkie one day and lunch another day with friends. Added to which, had lots of paperwork.

Baz

Glad you got your walk in. Take care now you don't walk into anything in the night, and be extra carefull around the stairs, as we know your history on them!

Enjoyed Tea time club this week, it was a variety week this week. I need it as it means I have to make the effort to sit down for an hour and tell all the family, I am busy for that hour. Pup does't listen though, and bangs on my lappy for attention if I don't throw her ball, or hold her chewy stick for her.   Think I have done well making it for BB, I have a method to balance my lappy now whilst pup is sleeping on my lap. Sometimes I get interrupted if she needs to go out, but she usually sleeps. Have been enjoying BB, even if the people I want evicted aren't up!

Hicky

hope the podiatrist sorted you out ok.

Glad they came to sort your water meter out at last. These cameras are amazing, I am so glad you told me about them.

We have 2 now. The Ring one does the front door and the other camera does the whole driveway, so we always know who is coming and going near our home.

Thats good your son came and helped with cleaning and got fish and chips again. We too tend to get too many chips but the leftovers come up lovely and crisp in the airfryer the next day.

How nice to put the Christmas tree up already for the kiddies. I'd love some whatsap photos.

Any more thoughts on going away to see your family?

You had some good suggestions there for Ocado. Do you like Bao buns? I love them. If you search on Ocado, they have lots of different ones. I will try and caramel and some vegetable ones and am ordering these katsu pumpkin ones to try this week.

The 1st few episodes of BB were not good at all, so I  nearly gave up on it. But I found it improved a lot later on. So might be worth you sticking with it.

We have been having some lovely sunny weather this week. We took the pup to the beach one day and I had my fave lime stripe ice cream. My washing dried lovely today in the breeze and sun. I even got to sit out awhile with pup on my lap today.

Hope it continues, as it does shorten the winter.

Have to remember the clocks change again this weekend. What a pain, wish they would just stop it!

have a good evening both xxx

Afternoon Mollie and Hicky  Sunny , very chilly here today …in fact it looked like we had frost overnight ….I guess winter has arrived . I had to wait in for three deliveries ( two of which have arrived , so far   , so no walk for me today ….all I dared to do was dash to the shop at the top of the road ….but at least I got some fresh air.Aside from that , I’ve restocked Cyril and the wildlife’s food , cleaned the kitchen , done the duvet shuffle ,and  two loads of washing ….so not a totally wasted Saturday .I hope everyone else is enjoying their day.

Mollie , I’m glad you manage to take a break for Teatime Club and BB…even if we don’t get our eviction wishes , nor make enough money for a rowing boat , never mine a bliddy yacht !Apparently it all kicked off on Live Feed last night , so hopefully they will show some of it in tomorrow nights show . And I hope you’ve caught up with MAFS now , cos there were fireworks a plenty there too .Hicky , I hope the podiatrist sorted you out yesterday , but wow ….and Xmas tree up already .Sounds like you’ve got your weekend viewing sorted .I wonder who will go on scd this week ….all the obvious ones have gone now

Anyway , I hope you both have a nice relaxing weekend , and take care of yourselves .

Good evening, Mollie & Baz.

The Podiatrist was on time, all sorted, i have bought a glass file for my fingernails, hate cutting them.

Yes, my lad in the Philippines usually put the tree up early, with them not working they have loads of time, glad you enjoyed the pics and vids in sent you Mollie.

Never had Bao buns, what on earth are they, i get hot cross buns and baps and hot dog buns.

Not sure what to do about going to see them in the Philippines, the spare room he has is occupied by the live-in lady and i dont fancy living separate, also there isnt a direct flight and dont really fancy going on my own with my eyes the way they are, and iwas hoping the crypto would have picked up by now but my lad said it should start picking up soon, i was hoping the crypto would pay for my expenses to go, dont really want to use savings, so will have to wait and see how things go.

Watching the darts, have got F1 recorded but havent had time to watch yet.

I'll have to change some clocks before bed tonight as well.

Afternoon Mollie and Hicky  Rained heavily overnight , and overcast now ….but it’s quite warm…and I managed to get in my mile walk once the rain stopped. Aside from that I’ve changed sheets and  pillowcases , done two loads of washing , some general tidying up and fed wildlife . No sign of Cyril yet today ….probably filling his face elsewhere !I hope everyone else’s week has started off well .

Mollie , I hope your day is going well , and that the * plans* are getting sorted out . I’m looking forward to another week of FIAB and renovations …..let’s hope we get some decent profits for our hard work! Hicky , glad the podiatrist sorted things out ….but tbh I don’t blame you thinking twice about doing the Xmas trip ….it sounds like it might be quite stressful .Did you watch Strictly this week ?

Well it’s BB and MAFS for me tonight ….so a good trashy viewing night .I hope you both have a good evening . Take care.

Good afternoon, Mollie & Baz.

Glad you got your walk in Baz.

Haven't seen BB lately, and the weekend had darts for 4 days and F1 which i still have recording to watch, not enough hours in the day, even with the extra hour.

Rang the dentist this morning, i can feel something wrong with one of my teeth, not sure if it's a filling that's come out or what but my toung finds a hole that i dont think should be there, anyway, got an appointment at 09:50 in the morning.

I watched the final of the voice earlier, so good all of them.

Managed the wash & dry yesterday and all put away, sent the meds order through to the docs.

I had a booklet from the fishmonger with the Christmas stuff in, i noticed that they have the Dukeshill dry cured bacon, didn't realise they did the back & also sausages so went on Ocado and typed in Dukeshill and wow, they all came up so the back & sausages will be on my next order.

Hope Mollie had a good day.

Afternoon Mollie and Hicky  Overcast , but dry here today , so I went for a long walk this morning…..nearly 2 miles …….mostly because I had to go to two different shops .Aside from that the gardeners have been and mowed the lawns, Cyril ( the one with no markings) has visited , I’ve done a load of washing , and cleaned the kitchen  . …so quite a productive day chez Baz .

Mollie , we are going to have to pull our building  socks up , cos so far we’ve lost about 70k this week! That aside , I hope your day is going well . I really enjoyed BB and MAFS last night ….I reckon it will be either Martha or Alli that goes ….at least I hope it is .Hicky , I’m glad you managed to get a dentist appointment, and I hope it’s nothing major .Ocado really is brilliant , isn’t it .

Well it’s BB ( midweek eviction by the back door I think ) and MAFS for me tonight ….so another relaxing viewing night .Have a good one both , and take care .

Good afternoon, Mollie & Baz.

Glad you managed a good walk Baz, glad the gardeners came as well, that's a good job done.

My taxi to go to the dentist arrived early, i usually open the front door when the notification comes saying the taxi has been dispatched, but when i looked out there was a car a couple of doors away which looked like a taxi with a thingy on the door, but with my eyes i was struggling to read which company it was unrill i saw a number what said 1111 so it was the right company, but i hadn't had the call back that tells me its outside, so i waved to the driver, he opened the door so i said have you come for me, he said yes, it was 1 minute till the taxi was due, so as i went out and locked the door the phone rang, it was the taxi company telling me it was outside, the neighbours to my right are in a semicircle where most vehicles turn around to go back down the road, it is also at the rnd of a cul-de-sac,

He then came to my drive and i got in, i asked him why i didn't get a call saying he was outside earlier, he said he was early as i had been down as priority, probably as the last taxi to the dentist was late and i had to ring the dentist to tell them, anyway, i arrived 20 minutes early as i had allowed time for the taxi to be late, so at 09:50 i saw the dentist, told him the problem, it seems that he had put a cover over the tooth in question but with nothing holding it on they come off, the tooth is virtually level with the gum, he gave me 3 options, recover it, but it will come off again, do nothing or take it out, so i did that, it's not a back tooth or a front tooth, it had 2 roots, he X-rayed it then pulled it out, so i am being careful and following instructions for now to protect the wound.

And it was free as he had worked on it last time and the work is under guarantee, i would have been happy to pay, mind you the 2 taxis cost me £5 each way, i always give them a tip if they use a card reader.

Yes, Ocado is fantastic, my lad in Cornwall can't use them as they don't deliver to his house, i was wondering if they start to sell the items i told them about will they tell me if they start to sell them.

Hope Mollie has had a good day.
