oh well.....it was good whilst it lasted

It looks like summer is over , it was short & sweet.

I managed to dig 1/2 of the garden which must now ( in spite of one dry week) be classified as a bog, I am digging out loads of moss in addition to the thousands of weeds. Am also hobbling having done something to my back whilst dragging a barrow full of gravel up the steps....as a result I can no longer reach the weeds - hurrahhh.

The return of winter means I now have to tidy the house.......in time for our easter guests.

summer in spring

The new car is chugging away quite nicely, it is very clean & shiny & smells quite fragrant too. BUT, it has an electric handbrake, a completely pointless invention if ever there was one, it will be a long time before I even attempt a hill start.....quite tricky when you live in a very hilly bit of Scotland........it is true, we too are having a heatwave. It is a complete relief to see the sunshine after non-stop rain for the last nine months. I now have to dig out all the moss that has overtaken my flower beds & vegetable patch - I try & see it as part of my failing fitness regime.

I have been thinking that it is about time I actually started do something about my new year's resolutions  so I have taken the momentous step &  purchased a "couch potato to athlete" running app for my phone though I am still very much at the couch potato end as I haven't yet taken it out !

Hmmmmmm

the prospect of a new (well NOT brand new) car should fill me with joy but more a rather sicky feeling of dread.....tied to the financial commitment for YEARS, urghhhhhh

It seems I was the last person to hear about.......

Obama prototol aide called:  RANDY BUMGARDNER !!!!!!! - this really made my week.

What were his parents thinking ?

Don't forget your lovely mum

What can your really say: she's given birth then cooked, cleaned, provided for you, dressed you, played with you, been on holiday with you and even wiped your bum. So send her a card & give her a lovely gift & she will love even more than she already does....

Double Rainbow

We saw a double rainbow on the way home today.....does that mean my pot of gold is nearby ?

sometimes I wonder

I DO sometimes wonder why we left London...I miss the culture, I miss my friends, I miss the shops but this morning when I went out for my healthy  trudge, I saw a mummy & baby deer standing right next to me....FANTASTIC.....it's good to commune with nature & on our doorstep too.

NOT a daddy but close !

Economic Gloom

I knew it was going to happen but woe, it looks like my client....provider of sustenance in the home is in the doldrums & can no longer afford to pay me.
