*******************************************
As you may have gathered I am off work and on my jolly holidays. Being off work yesterday (plus Teen has finished school) through me into confusion as I really thought it was Sunday today.....


I headed off to the coast today to see my Mum and to sort out her front garden ( I so have to persuade my 78 year old Mum to move and get a flat with no garden ... she tells me she loves gardening , but I know she has always hated it as she doesn't 'do' insects).. when I say garden I mean the bit of a flower bed under her front room window and side flower bed up the drive (the front of the house is paved)... she has decided she no longer wants 'bed foliage' but wants flower pots. So I dug and removed carnations & pinks transferring them into the HUGE back garden .. oh and a fuschia that caused some distress (dam I forgot to take the poppy's which I left in until the last minute.. at the last minute I forgot them.. drat!).... anyway it is done I am just hoping the transfers survive !!!

Tomorrow I have that sort of day before you go on holiday, particularly when someone is house and pet sitting.... I will be cleaning for England...by bed time tomorrow I will be exhausted cleaning stuff that I just tickle around for daily existance ... my god I will be ready for the chill come arrival at Skegness on Monday afternoon.......

Indeed, I will watch over them for you... not that I'm a stalker or anything, but for gosh sakes, someone has to keep them out of your drawers.

I am greatly offended. I have no ambition to get into your drawers. Apart from anything else, I wouldn't fit!
