Dogs walked. A bit of Aerosmith this morning. Muesli time.

We have an " Arrowsmith Road " nearby. All it needs is a bit of creative editing 🤔 Some of the properties along the road make Sandbanks seem downmarket...

Morning all. Slept very heavy, crawled out of my pit at 0800 and slowly coming round........with assistance from a coffee.
I'm supposed to put my 1st drops in at 8 but that didnt happen (please dont snitch on me).
It was supposed to rain this morning but there is no sign of it.
Right, wheres me drops?

That's your fault for refusing to accept him.

Good morning. Dark and chilly so as the small one is here I've put the heating on........purely for her you understand.

#2SP fell asleep at 4.00pm, we couldn't wake her so put her to bed. She slept for 13¼ hours then at 5.15 I heard a little voice whisper "Granddad" and she climbed into bed for a 40 minute snuggle. Magic.

Mr Parrot has come to stay as well. Mr Parrot is one of those new-fangled toys that repeats everything you say. Most conversation involves Mr Parrot as interpreter. It goes like this:

Granddad: "Would #2SP like a drink?"
Mr P: "Would #2SP like a drink?"
#2SP "Yes, please"
Mr P "Yes, please"
Granddad "Would #2 like purple juice?"
Mr P "Would.........

It could be a long day.........or else Mr Parrot's batteries might run out.....or even disappear??? 🤔🤔

Funny how batteries don;t last very long in certain toys!
When I had kids with toys like they you sometimes found that the batteries magically got a small piece of paper between the battery and the contact

it was a mystery how that happened

Right off to see the Mayor

AgeUK open day thing in Runcorn

which is lucky - if it was in St Helens the relevant Mayor would be
erm
how to say this in a way that won;t get me told off and pointed to "The Other Place"
err - of a party that was on teh telly last night

lets hope their MP doesn;t show up


I'll drop it there!

Anyway - I'll keep the talking to "old people and phones" type stuff!
The Gods know I have enough "opinions" about that!
