    Son of Boom: Dad, can you get a movie for me.
    Boom: Sure son, I shall acquire poste haste.

    *a short time later*

    Boom: Son, that movie is in Japanese.
    Son of Boom: Yeah I know, I still want to watch it.

    *turns on movie*

    Female Offspring of Boom: I've no idea what's going on
    Son of Boom: Just watch it female sibling
    Female Offspring of Boom: It doesn't make any sense.
    Female Parter of Boom: *starts narrating the subtitles*

    *all start shouting at each other until Godzilla appears, all is quiet and the movie proceeds*

    My kids think they can speak Japanese now.

    As the car I’m getting is in England, obviously I want to get an inspection done on it before I buy it. Was trying to book one with the AA but it wouldn’t work because I didn’t have a UK address or phone number. Here we go again, I thought (similar thing used to happen when I was in Leeds, I could never get food delivered because I didn’t have a UK number they could call me on)

    Said I’d try and see if the RAC could do it, so I filled out a form on their website requesting a callback. I thought that won’t work as I have an Irish number. I’d say 10 minutes later the phone rang and it was a girl from the RAC.

    And even better, they can do the inspection tomorrow :D

    Sitting outside in soft sweet air, picking and shelling peas, with the cats coming and going..

    before my first island sojourn nearly 30 years ago that was one of my dreams.... sitting at the door of my cottage shelling peas...

    How blessed I am..

    PS the freezer has recovered...

    the deep quiet out here that is more than the absence of sound; and a sweet empty three days ahead... mmmmmmmmmmmm

    happy days!

    Just been standing at my gate chatting to a lovely Dublin family over to the island for the day; a real wonderful change of scene for them. Being at the crossroads this happens ,most weekends and I love welcoming them.. sent them off to see our Church... we are few here but very hospitable as someone else had stopped on the lane to do the same.. Happy but OH MY the midges! Happy to be back inside...

    Went for a long drive yesterday, revisiting old haunts, really enjoyed it.
    The changes in the weather as I drove through different parts of the country were amazing.
    And as I returned home there was a beautiful rainbow in the sky.

    Watching the spare freezer fill up with produce from the garden. Peas, rhubarb, various soups and purées. And the smell of jam being made from the strawberries and raspberries.

    You can't beat home grown.

    Chatting to my favorite wee man on the phone, I told him I was gonna catch him and he ran off as fast as his little legs would carry him giggling mad :3.

    The neighbourhood pets came over to visit. :) The big dog saw me walking into town and ran towards me, I had to tell her to wait for me 'cause she was going to come along. The minute I was back she was over like a shot (treats and back scratchies were administered). I was out in the front garden less than two minutes later when the ginger cat from across ran over purring and meowing and made himself at home (he went for a nosey around the kitchen and upstairs). He got some treats. In less than five minutes his tortoiseshell sister was over, too, for her ration of treats and ear scratchies. :rolleyes: They're good for the soul. :)
