I think the ladies matches in both rugby and footie are a lot quicker and more respectful of the game :-D :-D

Nearly all sports Gwyn, except golf :-D :-D

He has always cheered on the ladies football and rugby teams since they started showing them on tv. He appreciates they get stuck in, not like some of the Premier footballers. :-)

I wear mostly linen during the warmer weather. If it is not ironed, it looks like a dishcloth :-D :-D

I iron as little as possible :-D :-D

I iron very little.

My mum used to iron everything.

Lots more natural fibre items then, so they needed different care.

Always seem to be tablecloths needed sorting.
I haven't used one for ages.

When they have the US Golf Open at Augustus the Rhododendrons always look a picture :-D

As you say seeing them up close is different from the photos :-D

I must put the ironing board up soon. Once it is up I get on with it, but getting out from under the stairs. :-0 :-0

Yes, they did Belle.

Both they and the azaleas were huge and the grounds cover several acres, so in some areas it was like massive 'trees' of bold colours.
Daughter took some photos, but they don't really capture the vibrant show of colours.

LondonBelle Report 9 May 2026 19:34

I just looked at the score for The Roses....see they've got France on the 17th :-D

Who were Scotland playing :-0

LondonBelle

LondonBelle Report 9 May 2026 19:33
