Have I been told off :-0 Just concerned about you Huia.

I think you need to find your equivalent of Tec;s boy in the village Huia, so he can do all of the jobs for you

I needed to change that light bulb. I couldn't be in the dark at night. I do have a 2 step ladder with a hand hold, and I used a walking stick in my right hand to steady myself. I don't want to spend all my time in bed to be safe, Sue. At my age I have to make the most of my time. Not that I am as old as some of the others on here, but at 78 you never know what is around the corner. :-0

Well she did tell me the paintings were copies, but now I am not so sure :-S

Tecwyn Report 23 May 2014 23:04

What did she buy Linda?

A red London bus,
A red telephone kiosk,
Nelson's Column,
Angel of the North,

I don't mean models or ornaments - but the real thing
:-D

Oh dear Tec, you should have seen the souvenirs she bought - pure tourist tat :-0

Huia - once again I will tell you that you must take care :-| You are taking too many risks. Mother has spoken :-|

Don't tell fibs, Linda :-|

Hello Huia,
Don't you have a safe stepladder? You finger does look very painful - do take care :-)

LindainHerriotCountry Report 23 May 2014 22:49

Good morning Huia, how is your hand

Huia Report 23 May 2014 22:46

I have just managed to change the light bulb in this room. It is the one I use most often, and just because it is a very dull day it decided it had had enough. It is not easy changing it at the best of times as I am getting a bit shaky on my pins when I look up, but I managed. :-)

LindainHerriotCountry Report 23 May 2014 22:46

That is because I couldn't lift it, your poor OH struggled Youwill have to take less this time

SueMaid

SueMaid Report 23 May 2014 22:43

You didn't have any trouble carrying my suitcase Linda :-D

I think Autumn sunshine is great, showing through the leaves on the trees in their Autumn colours.
Helps to shorten the winter too. :-)

Good morning Sue :-D

Nothing wrong with some holiday shopping :-D

It is overcast this morning and I'm rather hoping it rains as everything is very dry here. Glorious weather for late Autumn but very unusual. Yesterday was very warm.
