My back and hips are beginning to feel less painful ................ the weather seems to be stabilising, with not so many atmospheric changes.


OH is still sleeping in the basement, on a hide-a-bed (do you call it a sofa bed?), as it is so much cooler down there. I can't sleep on that mattress though ........ so I sleep upstairs, with 2 fans going!

We're both sleeping very well :-D :-D :-D :-D





I got some lovely flowers this morning ......... OH slipped out without me knowing, and bought 3 large bunches of freesias (8-10 stems per bunch) :-D :-D


It is our 45th anniversary tomorrow, and OH used to try to get the flowers that I had in my wedding bouquet. They were red roses, white freesias, and lily-of-the-valley.

Well, lily-of-the-valley never have been available in August over here, so he used to buy the roses, and freesias when he could. But we discovered that red roses don't, or didn't, last very long ....................... so now I get freesias.

The bunches this year were white, red and yellow .................... he said the store (actually a wholesaler that he was recommended to) only had 1 bunch of white ones ............ because they are used so much in wedding bouquets :-D


We're going out to dinner tomorrow night to our favourite but expensive restaurant ............. and our joint present will be the trip to Churchill to see the polar bears, which has had to be delayed until next year.

Glad you are feelling better Syls


You need to sort it out so you can sleep with OH


:-(

Nearly at the end of the diving now. Hope young Tom gets a medal - he's so very close to doing so.


I love freesias Sylvs.......do they have a nice scent?


You have TWO Fans?? One Fans would be enough for anyone wouldn't it?

Oh! You mean the air wafting fans............ :-D ;-)



Hope the closing ceremony is going to be good............

Talk of the devil and she turns up.:))

The Bus drivers prayer

Our Father who art in Hendon,
Harrow be thy name,
Thy Kingston come,
Thy Wimbledon,
In Erith as it is in Hendon,
Fulham Broadway our Hemel Hempsteads,
And forgive us our Westminsters,
As we forgive those who Westminster against us,
Lead us not into Temple Station,
And deliver us from Ealing,
For thine is the Kingston,
The Purley and the Croydon,
For Esher and Iver,
Crouch End.

Were your ears burning then????


Very good. Isn't it your bedtime now? It's gone dark. ~~~~
