Nice suprise for OH LK, when are you going?


Thank you for breakfast, so much to think about, it'll be lunch by the time Ive decided!

Good morning!


Of course one of us will help with breakfast....won't we Dea ? ;-)


Thank you for that lovely spread. We'll see you after your visitors have gone.

LK, that's brilliant and just the sort of thing my OH would enjoy too! He has a 'thing' about sailing ships and that era. Does your OH enjoy the Hornblower and Bolitho type of books? I am sitting opposite a sailing ship picture as we speak :-D :-D


<3

Good morning all ! :-)

Don't worry Sylvia - over the past couple of days you have served us enough food to last for a month! I am still full from yesterday :-D ;-)

I can just manage a 'small' Ulster fry-up and one of those delicious blueberry gingered lemon muffins.

Thank you Sylvia - hope you enjoy the next few days <3

we have had Lavateria growing in our garden for at least 15 years, maybe 20.


OH cuts it back almost to the base in late fall ................ and it comes back again every spring.

It's glorious right now!


He's keen to keep it alive, because it was given to us by a now-dead friend.



But it is treated as a perennial over here.

OOOhh LK - Happy Anniversry !!! - Can you tell us now what you gave OH for the occasion ??

Don't worry about the 'torch' - my grandchildren have it "!"!"

Dea Xxx

Just seen the Olympic Torch.

Well I think I did.

I had my phone set on camera but could not see the screen in the bright sunshine.

It turned off just as I went to take the picture and the torch disappeared into the crowd. :-(
