British Bulldog

Oh the memories of the classic school playground game British Bulldog. There'd be one person who was 'it' in the middle and everyone would start at one end of the school yard & then try n' 'leggit' to the otherside without being caught. It's probaly banned in schools now...health n' safety gawn mad!

Those were the days....sigh!

My son's ex-primary school (thank goodness he's left their now!!) banned everything and the kids were bored senseless. What happened to conkers, long lengths of elastic skipping, tag games & skipping ropes? We laughed so much at school and played in big happy groups.

Shoot! I'm sounding old...off to hang out in a bike shed!

Spring Cleaning

I know it's not Spring yet...but I can't wait any longer...I can't stand it!

The whole house has been blitzed. If an object's not been touched in the past year, has a coating of dust an inch deep or hasn't seen the light of day since the last millenium then it's outta here!

I really, really must suss out Ebay. I've said it soooo many times before but everytime I visit the page, I'm filled with dread at getting it all wrong and find something more interesting to do instead on the ol' computer.

So I better be off and do it now...see yer! x

Bright n' Cheery

Morning all you gorgeous bloggers (and the not-so-gorgeous ones too).

After our sad weekend I'd like to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who left such lovely messages.

So, it's time to start the week with a bright n' cheery card and to brace ourselves for whatever lies ahead. My kids are off scool today as it's Teacher Training Day (AKA...Still-Might-Find-A-Bargain-In-The-January-Sales-If-I-Go-Now-Day). I don't mind, I'd rather have them at home here...there's work to be done, ironing, vacuuming, dusting! (Only kidding...before the Child Support Agency come banging on my door!)

Whatever you're up to...have a groovy one!

xx

Normal Service Will Resume Shortly...

To those visiting today expecting wit n' sarcasm I apologise.

Forgive a little indulgence as I share some snaps of our beloved cat Dusty who died this afternoon.

To say she was special was an understatement...

Always up for a hug...

Friends with everyone...

She saw me as a pushover...



Not a bad bone in her body...

Looked after herself...

A right cutie...

Who never hurt a fly (well maybe the odd fly)...

Teased by birds...

Yet perfect in every way...



Just this morning...

RIP my darling...XXX
