hi all
xxx



another sunny warm day



do hope this lasts ............ we are going up to the cabin on Wednesday. Staying in a hotel in the nearest town again, and going out to the cabin during the day.

OH hopes to be able to secure the broken door, and to do some painting, as well as tackle the (probably, undoubtedly) tall grass.

We're alos taking the trailer, and bringing back more stuff


Keeping fingers crossed that we've had no more invaders!



Back late next Saturday

I see in our media that you now have the usual problem with the Olympics



............ banks of empty seats at events.



All due to "members of the Olympic Family" (sponsors, IOC, athletes and their families) not using free tickets that were assigned to them.


I note that Lord Coe said "it will not happen here"


That's what our head of the Local Committee also said back in 2010.

...... and it did!!



It is such a pity ....... when there are so many people who would love to see events.



No-one seems able to solve the problem



Maybe free tickets should NOT be given to sponsors or IOC members :-D

Dea - I'm fine thank you just been a busy busy day and it doesn't look as if tomorrow is going to be any quieter :-)

OH went to visit his Mum and I stayed at home to get caught up as my no 1 son and partner were coming for dinner so that was 6 of us. He has been staying at her Mums with her while her Mum was in hospital and he has an interview soon (for the job he's been doing temp until it was advertised) so wanted his Dad to look over his stuff.

It was after nine before we got to sit down :-)

Dea
Hope it stays sunny for tomorrow have fun :-)

Dea Xxx

Mornin all~~~~


Thank you for breakfast Sylv, not sure what to have as I am still full from yesterdays lunch!


Pants weather again :-(

Well, I am back from 'the beach' !!!

The weather kept dry while we were there and the children had a WONDERFUL time !!!

Their laughter and giggles and squeels are what makes life worthwhile ;-)

One 'tricky moment though - they wanted to go on the big helter-skelter thing where you come down on little mats at VERY high speed. - The woman said that I could go up and sit them on the mat at the top to send them down!

I was a bit worried that they, especially the 3 year old would not really know what to do as they had never been on one before and as their little faces looked up to me I thought that I had better go up and make sure they were safe SO - up I went - up many many BIG steps, winding round to get to the top which must have been over 30 ft high !

With my breathing difficulties, I almost didn't make it but got up and set them off, as I struggled to make my way down again, I met them both coming back up :-0 "We get 2 goes" they said - little one wanted me to sit him on the mat again so I had to turn around and make my way back to the top with them :-(

They were back down before I made it to the bottom and had to sit there with the owner for 5 minutes, puffing at my inhalers before I could join them to walk around the rest of the rides.

They really did enjoy themselves though so it was all worthwhile :-D :-D

Dea Xxx

Aww poor Dea....you should have gone down the quick way, would have been a lot easier then the climbing up ;-)



Glad you all had a good day
