Sleepy Sunday

Elaine · 24-05-2009, 09:33 AM

Not long up and about, the sun is shinning and Eva is screaming to get out into the garden.
Taking Erin to Crathes Castle today, followed by some lazing in the sunshine before she has to catch her bus home this evening.
Many of you will be surprised to hear that not one drop of alcohol has passed our lips this weekend.

Morning Elaine, morning all..

It's a gorgeous day here, not a cloud in the sky, hope it continues for the rest of the holiday weekend.

Hope you and Erin enjoy your visit to Crathes Castle, Elaine......... it looks a lovely place. No alcohol?

........ what's happened?!

Nothing special planned for today except soaking up the sun in the garden this afternoon!

Hope your weather is good too, enjoy it!

Morning alll.
Its sunny here as well with some clouds lingering.

Im going to my fave chinese this afternoon, ive not been for a year!

My parents come back from Mallorca tonight.

Oh, I went round to my bfs last night and had a look at the stray cat we took in and omg the ticks are ALOT bigger... I cant look at him coz its my phobia (things grouped together) Its knocking me sick now just thinking about it!

Gonna ring the vets on tue and tell them about the ticks again. Its so annoying coz when we need to go to the vets its either a Sunday or a bank hoiliday... grrr.

Have a nice day all.

A lovely, sunny, definitely a day of rest Sunday here.

Janey83 - I'm getting quite used to removing ticks from the dog now but I'm sure it's a bit trickier to do it with a stuggling cat! I got an O-Tom tick remover for a couple of quid at the vets (and petshops have them too), you just slot it in between skin and tick, twist and pull. I wouldn't be happy about leaving ticks in for any longer than necessary because of the diseases they can spread. Has the cat been Frontlined? if so then the ticks should fall off dead within 48 hours after attaching.

Afternoon, all, a lovely day here also. Not as sunny as yesterday but pleasant and mild, 24C. Walked to the market as it is so nice, and they had bing cherries, first of the year ..... looking forward to them at lunch with some cheese; I really pig out on them when they're in season. And ..... see flower tresses appearing on the tomatoes!
My exciting life!!!

Janey, that's weird about the ticks, they should be gone by now; has he been outside at all to pickup some new ones? Elaine, hope the castle visit is fun, and why no booze .....

? Hi to Erin.

Hope it's a good holiday tomorrow for all and the weather co-operates!

Hi all - garden this morning then off to late lunch at little bistro, (spinach soup, warm garlic chicken salad, loads of warm bread and coffee.)

DOne some token hoovering and now in front of TV with coffee and catsey.

No DM he hasnt been out. Dont know where they are coming from... will phone the vets on tue.

Phew, what a scorcher (as they say)!!

Took Dominik riding this morning . . . he was stirrup AND rein-free walking around the arena . . . this boy has no fear when it comes to riding Gee-Gee!

Then down to the allotment where my finally-arrived Globe Artichokes look a little pathetic and limp and my just-planted beetroot, fennel and sorrel are looking strong! OH put down the gravel path which looks to be the wrong type - I ordered the mixed colour one (brown, beige, orange and white) the one that's down looks decidedly pink and I don't like it. That and the 2 aborted deliveries means I'll be making a fuss come Tuesday

Lovely roast chicken dinner in the garden and now a few drops of wine before heading off to bed - too much sun today methinks

Lovely day here, up early to walk little stray dog that was brought into the practice over the weekend, such a sweet girl but very mangy

She seemed to be happy to be out at least. Was planning on doing some knitting outside in the sun but yesterday managed to give myself a needle-stick injury where the needle hit the bone of my thumb

and it's too sore to do very much. Hopefully it'll be better tomorrow and I can get on with my projects!
Imogen has had a lovely day sunbathing on the window sill- she loves this weather
