It's all my project, Crazy. I have to work hard at getting DH to do anything to help. 🙄 Ah well, it's time on my own! 😁

All's quiet on my road. Might pick up later!

So many bees on my flowers today! 🐝🐝🐝

If I hear my NDN murdering singing "jewels remain" once more, I will need someone to bake me a cake with a file in it. 🤬🤬🤬

They've both of those and World in Motion on repeat...

God. Nobody needs the John Barnes' rap more than once (once is more than enough, to be honest)!

See, I don't mind that. Grin
But getting Jules Rimet mixed up with Jewels Remain really pisses me off.

Misheard lyrics are one thing but getting pretty much the vital phrase in the song wrong should be punishable by removing all means of playing music 🎶

NoWordForFluffy · 11/07/2021 19:31

And ability to sing too, I reckon, Woolly.

They clearly can't be actual football fans if they don't know what they should be singing! 🙄

Could be worse though , could be The Atomic Kittens re-lease of Whole Again new one

"Southgate You're The One, Football's Coming Home Again"

pussycatlickinglollyices · 11/07/2021 20:00

I want the remote control car with the ball on!!

NoWordForFluffy · 11/07/2021 20:16

It would only trip you up!

Take heed PussyCat

We've already got one dodgy ankle with Wreck on the Christmas Countdown.

You don't want to be in traction !

Morning!

The kids are still in bed, but are being got up, dressed and taken to school. Breakfast picnic in the car! 🤣

Miserable day. Forecast now says rain all day. Grim.

Morning.
I missed the penalty shoot-out🤦🏻‍♀️ from the shouting I got the jist that things didn't go swimmingly.
I either had a really bad tummy bug, or I've eaten something that really didn't want to stay in iyswim.😳 It's still grumbling and groaning and keeping me near a loo this morning.

CrazyBaubles · 12/07/2021 10:21

Morning.
DH watched the last half of the football downstairs while I went up to bed because cramps were painful and I was really cold.
You can tell we don't generally watch football because we were both surprised how long the game went on 🙄

It's really cold here today, grey and raining outside. Aim of the day is to get through work, shower, put my PJs back on and crochet because I still haven't made the second pair of gloves for my nephew.

Puss I hope you're feeling better soon.

pussycatlickinglollyices · 12/07/2021 10:41

Crazy I should have bought Andrex shares. 🤦🏻‍♀️
I hope you're feeling better too - can you send me your rain (fluffy didn't Sad ), it's like the Gobi desert here...I've forgotten what rain is!

NoWordForFluffy · 12/07/2021 11:28

You're welcome to our rain. It's still going! ☔️

Hope you feel better soon, Puss. And your cramping buggers off as well, Crazy. Flowers

DH was suitably gutted last night, obviously he knows all the answers and would have made a much better manger than Southgate 🙄😂

Went to our baby group this morning and I left my handbag there 😐🙄

So I got home and had to go aallll the way back to get it 🙃 so I could get back in the house 😖

CrazyBaubles · 12/07/2021 16:14

How are you feeling puss?

I've just finished work. Looked outside and the weather is all over the place. If I look to the left it's dark, heavy grey cloud but look to the right and the sky is blue, a few white clouds and very bright looking Confused

If we have any more rain you're most definitely welcome to it though!

Hairspray what a palaver 😂

pussycatlickinglollyices · 12/07/2021 19:00

Crazy not particularly confident. 😳😂
How are you getting on? I hope you're feeling better now.

TheWoollybacksWife · 12/07/2021 21:29

Goodness puss that sounds grim. Sending 🧻and soothing🧴

We've got showers forecast for tomorrow which should top up the water butts. I'm hoping to catch up with a friend for a cake and cup of tea while DH cracks on with the last bit of bedroom decorating.

Morning!

It's set to be glorious for the rest of the week. Yay!!

I've just watered my 54 chilli plants and the lemon trees. We're close to having ripe lemons, so I'm excited that we may achieve this due to the sunny weather! That's one of my 3 buckets of rainwater gone. Our butts are full to the brim!

Puss, I hope today sees improvement and fewer loo visits for you!

Crazy, I hope you're feeling better.

Sainsbury's has just arrived. It's slow getting to the door from the van though! 🤷‍♀️

Morning. Fluffy the heavens opened overnight here too but it's hopefully dry today. It's going to be warm (24°) so I've must put some washing out - I got to listen to the local primary school singing for what I'm assuming is a leavers assembly that's taking place outside. They did a lovely rendition of Yellow Submarine and got a very enthusiastic applause at the end.

Cramps are still going but less intense today- 🤞🏼 I'm nearing the end of this hormonal mess!

pussycatlickinglollyices · 13/07/2021 14:35

Afternoon.
Feeling nearly normal now, and thank you for the virtual care package Woolly Grin We think it's a bug as DH has started with it even though I've kept my distance and used a separate bedroom/bathroom etc it's very much noro without the sickness.
I must have caught it in Morrisons on Fri as I'd not left the house/garden since the prev Friday.
Looks like I get the spare bed for a couple more nights. 🤷🏻‍♀️
