Hello July :)

 

Dad had to collect my brother and his girlfriend from the airport this morning. Their plane landed at 4.45am. As dad had to be up, he made damn sure everyone knew about it :rolleyes: :laugh: Ted peed on the carpet, so when he got back he was using the mega loud carpet cleaner at 6am to clean up the pee :angry:

Morning...I woke OH up very gently at about quarter past midnight when I went to bed...to punch and punch him :-)

 

Love the bunny!

 

Blimey Jayne, I thought 7.00 on a Sunday was bad (courtesy of upstairs!) but 6:00 is mean!!

I've been out gardening. Fed a gazillion plants with the watering can. Finished the border as well. Think I'm going to widen it slightly and plant some smaller dwarf Rhodos in the gaps.

Need to finish painting the fences but need nice weather first!

Oooh I am freezing. I have the plumbers here re-fitting the gas fire and he keeps leaving the door open but I am excited to be having the fire and radiator restored. The porch was decorated yesterday in a sunny yellow with white gloss on the tongue and groove. It was all cream before so it kinda hits you in the face right now but it won't take long to get used too.

Sounds good.

 

Glad the agility weekend went well, Sandra.

 

The people who have my car have hopefully now diagnosed the final fault. The ECU unit, whatever that may be, is on the way out.The guys working on it were very upset as a new one costs a huge amount. My kind friend Chrissie got the news before I did, and she didn't tell me until she had found a 2nd hand one online. It's in a local scrapyard for £45. Also she found a local firm who do recon ones.

Glad to hear the agility went well Sandra :)

 

We ended up at Lansdown on Sunday - came away with a 3rd and a 5th in the jumping classes. It was our last grade 2 show - I'm going to miss the small(er) classes.

 

Owl, glad to hear they've tracked down the source of the problem, though sorry to hear its not something minor. The 2nd hand one sounds good - definitley cheaper :)

Here's the fire restored to its spot. They had a job with it as the frame has twisted due to our chimney breast leaning back. It's taken 2 men several hours to get it to this stage and still has to have the gas supply reinstalled. They can't put the radiator on today as they want to take the opportunity to bury the pipes below the skirting board and that's not yet been fitted. The costs are just spiralling :tired:

And our phone has stopped working. The DW hasn't been yet and I'll bet she's been trying to phone to let me know why. Poor Archie. I'm going to have to find my mobile and charge it up. I hate the bloody things. I hope the week is only going to get better!
