School started at 9 but school bus collected us at 7, even now we have no public transport.

Some people in my school were similar - I was lucky as I was one of the last to be picked up by the bus. Which meant I had a short trip and didn't have much time waiting around for school to start.

Not at all, we walked to school through the fields and might have taken our time getting there no one could find us in the fields

Sitting on my balcony enjoying a Nespresso, mutt super excited with his treats but is now out for his morning walk.

Fitbit shows that I did 750 steps from the airplane seat to my balcony seat, spoilt, totally spoilt (That includes, getting off the plane, collecting my luggage, going to immigration and customs, going to flight dispatch and then to my truck)

16°C outside as I walked the south bank...... freezing.

I hear ya. It's only 22 here this morning considering going back upstairs for a jacket before I head to work.

Oh and I am getting a dress made for the wedding. That was my plan all along but was looking for a dressmaker and material on Saturday. Am so excited. I go back next Saturday for a fitting I hope it's not a dog's dinner. Have some back up plans lingering in an ASOS basket just in case.

Sitting in the dinning room of my new hotel. Had to move from my lovely one yesterday as it was booked up and too expensive. The food there was amazing. Had my dinner here last night and it was meh

Breakkie is crap too. All I could have was 2 slices of too sweet toast and a coffee. The coffee is good though.

Wow Graces7 didn't last long, what did our octogenarian do this time

Sofa, relaxing. Mutt doesn't agree with me staying in bed all day.

I'd never heard of Whipping Boy until my wife's friend wanted to see them and we got tickets and went along. I enjoyed the music, especially We Don't Need Nobody Else. I didn't realise they were famous though until ye mentioned them here. It was probably 2012 when I saw them. I was born in 88 so maybe was too young.

On the couch under a blanket contemplating lunch and how good things are for me right now. I feel very lucky.

Still banned from the last time was my interpretation of it.

Doing a bit of gardening after a very successful morning.


Lots of crops ready for harvesting and a dinner with homegrown spuds and veg just spells summer for me.

Ooh homegrown spuds. Drool.

After another broken sleep still, one night to go..

Lying on the bed, wrecked. Came home to find a magpie in the bedroom. Spent the evening changing bed linen and cleaning up bird ****e.

Thankfully after much flying at the wrong bit, it went out the window. Not sure how it got in, was blaming the cat but magpie is bigger than her and there would be more feathers around if there had been a struggle and it didn’t seem injured at all.

Ted_YNWA

Was there any open windows?
Could have came down chimney.

Reminds me of the time a pigeon did the same visit here a couple of years ago. Left his calling card everywhere.

Just slipped under the duvet, here's hoping for a better nights sleep.

I think it may have come down the chimney, there’s patches of soot around the hearth, but I had a fireguard right up against it so not sure how it got past that...

I for one welcome our new bird overlords. That's the fourth bird home invasion i've heard of in a few weeks. :eek:

Glad you're ok , try get some rest now if you can , even if sleep proves elusive

Arms be grand thanks Deja , I won the battle against the unwanted weeds

Watching Living With Lyme Disease here , god it's heartbreaking listening to those featured in the programme

Kitty6277

In the bed, just finished watching a Louis Theroux documentary, so I’m hoping sleep will come soon. Although may be somewhat hampered by the heat, and by the crowd of people somewhere outside who are making noise
