Morning Belle :-) <3

More beautiful sunshine here :-D

I can picture the mist over that cricket field. My daughter and I saw similar, one day last week, when we were up and about early.
The mist was swirling above a house and was very localised, so yes it did look like a fire, at first glance :-0

and all Smilers yet to arrive :-D <3

Yes, it's bright and sunny here too. But I'm finding it chilly indoors still. I may mow the lawns later.

Not a lot going on this end! :-\
Granddaughter 1 came up last Wednesday and stayed the night. We took a spin to the small town my mother is buried in and took some flowers and went for a walk.

She and Granddaughter 2 are off to Florida for 10 days (I think) next week. GD1 has never been abroad before and GD2 has only been to France for a short trip with her school a lot of years ago. They are both excited and a little apprehensive.

That's all my news really :-\ :-\ :-D

Hope you are all ok. (((((hugs for those who need them)))) <3 <3

Yes the Arsenal Ladies is tomorrow afternoon.

Do you know where in Islington Jem? The borough is pretty big. It has been gentrified somewhat. The old two up two down are now called cottages :-0 :-0

I know it well, :-D :-D

Afternoon all. :-D <3

Lovely weather here and was out to Sparkles this morning then to Waterstones and finally picked up a Cornish pasty, a long cream and jam doughnut for lunch and a fresh cream apple turnover for tonight from our lovely local butcher and bakery.

Hung out a line of washing before I went to the shops and it was drying nicely while I was having lunch…. then, before my eyes, the bleddy line snapped and the whole lot was on the grass. I could not believe it as it seems I am having nothing but laundry problems at the moment. Thank goodness I have a nice light aluminium rotary line so I put the washing through a rinse with sanitiser liquid and more softener and hung the lot on the rotary line.

What was that someone said about things coming in threes? I am hoping it is not the old warhorse Zanussi that goes next!

Enjoy the rest of the day, Girls. :-D <3
