    Out with the cats around half past five this morning, to clean and fettle the Church for the holiday weekend ..Light just starting and took the long laneway home, walking into the rising sun over the ocean calm. Not a sound .... dazzling glory. primeval stillness and light ...

    Eating sun-warmed strawberries straight from the garden - such flavour!


    And the excitement of planning my first proper holiday (one that doesn't involve conferences or any form of research) in six years

    The kids we are travelling with who are bursting their sides laughing at us singling kraut rock in our acquired german accents and vocab.
    Particularly th as I've been asked to stop attending at least two choir type set up's as my Dublin accent is too strong when I sing.

    In order to get my car fully road-legal here I had to swap the MOT for an NCT. The form I was given from the VRT office said I had to send a postal order for €15.50 in order to get the new disk. Grand says I, and I sent it off. Today the post came and along with my new disk was my postal order! For some reason or another they obviously didn’t want it :D I know it’s only €15, but still, more money in my pocket :D

    Passed by my Mum & Dad talking about their wedding day - they’re coming up to their 50th anniversary. Dad is hard of hearing so it may have been a one way conversation! Very sweet!

    Watching the music video for the Chris de Burgh song Don't Pay the Ferryman on Youtube. It was brilliant.

    when I was new here, I waited until my UK insurance etc ran out.. Then they delayed responding over and again. s o I emailed them explaining I was disabled and at the top of a mountain and of course could not drive ILLEGALLY etc and would unless they came soon die of starvation or thirst..

    Yep they came immediately...

    Very very happy that Boycat finally came home after MIA for 24 hours after our walk y;day.
    He stopped following half way round.. I decided after fettling the Church to go the long way round which I am clearly no longer able for.. he had Jacob both opted out but Jacob came home for food.

    No sign of 15 year old Boycat all the day and night long. Emailed a neighbour to start the bush telegraph and fretted all night.. .went out with torch and cat food tin and spoon...

    there is wild bog out there with sink holes that would ..... shudders..

    He is now under my covers... sweet happy relief...

    I think you should split your winnings with the first two people who thank your post.


    Oh looks like I'm in!

    Bought some size 12 clothes today. No longer searching the rails for size 18. Just a few more pounds and I'm there.

    But people who moaned about my weight are now not happy either and say I've lost too much. Been losing steadily and slowly and will be happy when I reach recommended weight for my height and build. Not being picky or difficult when eating in their houses and just accept what is served.

    I'm happy, which is the main thing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,634 ✭✭✭✭Graces7


    my cat who was lost.. sitting knitting in the sun all afternoon with him sunbathing alongside me...rolling on his back in the sun he was ... an email from the neighbour I asked to keep an eye out for him when he was lost. he had said he was organising the bush telegraph" When I told him the cat was HOME he said he had stood down the troops and cced to them! Four good folk,,, makes me happy at how blessed I am here,

    Quite a bit more than TH...

    ...as i sold my nearly never used german army sleeping bag via ebay to a guy who already owns one. He wanted another one for his wife for their motorbike holidays. Happy to get another one he overpayed it by 3€, a nice gesture. :)

    To my absolute surprise he just sent me another 20€ just because his wife is over the moon with her matching sleeping bag. :eek:

    It really is a fantastic robust piece for outdoor enthusiasts but this reaction left me completely stunned and very thankful. :D

    Sushi places that half the price of everything at 5PM sharp. :P

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.
