Good Morning Early Birds!

[waterboatman]

Saturday. Cloudy again. Yesterday it cleared and we had some warm sunshine. Wonderful so it was.

Tiggy was in for his supper at 6 last night. He saw the lot off in one go, so I had to put some more out when he'd finished, He had what became his breakfast about an hour ago.

Shoplifting today an d not much else. Did some dust rearranging yesterday, it's got an aboriginal theme to it now. Then I got the hoover out, tried to move the settee a bit...yup...the muscle went again, with a vengeance! I said 'Oh gollygosh, what a silly thing to do'. Or words to that effect. So I immediately sat down with a bottle of anaesthetic.

I won't be doing other than the shoplifting today!

Have a happy day everyone.

[excelsior-1]

hello janbee, have a great day today

[waterboatman]

Morning jan xxx How are you this morning? :o}

[seekeerz]

Hi boaty, sorry I skipped out on you yesterday - trouble is, with daylight saving now, means its mid afternoon here and a busy time for me, so I guess that's why I haven't been around too much.

I'm not doing too badly though the hot spells are getting to me especially when it's humid as well - we've had a really early start to the warm stuff and rains been very short, so not a good outlook for this summer.

How're things with you ?? Tiggy still around I see, and eating well too, he may not want to hibernate this winter !!

[janbee]

Fine thanks. Got back yesterday afternoon all full of choc and beer. Feel quite tired this morning so won't be doing much over 3 miles this morning. How are you?

[janbee]

Hi seeks xx

[seekeerz]

Hi jan xx how are you ?

[waterboatman]

Afternoon seekz. xxx yes, it can be too hot and sticky can't it.

I've been thinking that about Tiggy myself. :o} But it's still rather warm, only had one light frost so far, He'll get his head down when it gets seriously chilly. I'f not it's a wee pen in the corner for the lad!

jan I just knew you would! ;o} as long as you had a great time. That's all that matters! I wish I could walk three miles!

[janbee]

Boaty, you could roller blade it if you couldn't walk it!
Maybe Tig is fattening himself up for his long snooze. Good to now he's still around after all the cat palaver he had. Hope he finds a new mate in the spring.

[janbee]

I'm so glad I wasn't stupid enough to get caught up in the violence and stupidity of The Black Friday sales malarkey. What disgraceful behaviour from so called human beings.

[waterboatman]

Rollerblades! Now that conjures up a picture that will keep me chuckling all day! :o}

Tiggy is twice the size he was in spring. I'm sure he'll find a nice little dolly tiggy that needs the care and protection of a fine figure of a hedgehog that he now is. He was such a weedy little lad in spring, I wasn't sure he would make it! But I don't think he travels far during the night.

[janbee]

Of course he doesn't travel far. He's got the Michel Roux of Gloucester right there in his garden so why travel any farther?
