I have risen! 1st!

Feeling surprisingly sprightly considering my Guinness consumption yesterday.

Never mind you. After all that Guinness how is the bog seat 😀

Good morning all.
Think I am hospital visiting. I really hate sitting there for 3 hours while she is totally out of it. Fortunately the family are very good re visiting.

Glad the family are helping out. My brother happily sat back and let me run around seeing to my step mum and dad in their old age and failing health. I have since fallen out with him and no longer in contact.

Morning all :hello:

How long will this good weather last?
Off to Minehead for some shopping and then I'll probably spend the rest of the day in the garden.
Lidl have a deal on a 4 in 1 petrol multi tool. Might take a punt on one to replace my old Webbs tool, which can be a bit temperamental.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.

I'm glad you are not having to go through this alone. Take care.

Ye gods - just watched 1st episode of Ten Pound Poms.

BBC quality hits the floor - dreadful acting and an appalling, crass and cliched script.

Utter dross.

Have you been watching Malpractice. Won’t say to much as people may not have seen the final episode.

Suffice to say another writer who can’t think how to end a six part series

Hello! It is a beautiful sunny day here in Lamlash, our plan is to make a picnic, get our boots on and head out for a day's walking. Mrs P is checking out routes and I have the more tricky task of finding somewhere to stay Saturday to Tuesday next week. Everywhere seems to be FULL! Great for Scottish tourism but a little difficult for a soon to be homeless Sassenach!

I realised yesterday what it is that makes Arran special. Yes, a lovely island, little traffic, nice people etc. which one can find in many, many places. It's the silence though, there is no modern day background noise. It is just quiet. I'm used to this from time to time when cycling or walking but here it is all the time. Wonderful and makes one realise just how noisy our daily lives are.

Back to the search............................

Its usually the first thing I notice when I'm somewhere busy, how noisy it is.
