Hello Bloggets
We have just got in from a lovely day. We walked around a
reservoir. It was beautiful. The sun was shining the heat was so warm like a
late Spring day. Some birds laughed in their kind of laughing way as they do! We talked about how birds change country to
country. My friend spoke about the crows in Australia. She did an impression of
them. Hopefully no one was passing at the time as it was a perfect impression
of a witch. A little scarily close for comfort to reality if you ask me. Hehehehe.
She’s great, she
describes what and who, we are passing. She told me that an old couple passed
us, he held her hand. They were so sweet. And they were about 90. I said they
must have just met, perhaps in an old people’s home? But hey, they may just be
totally in love still after forever years of marriage. Overload cuteness alert.
Oh, it was lovely. To get out and enjoy laughter and sounds.
Even if the laughter came from the ducks. Haha.
But it’s true, in Russia the crows sound so different to
what they sound like in England. And I know I have seen Tube video’s where the little
birds sound so sweet in America. Obviously, not the crows. Smile.
Our dogs loved the walk and meeting all the dogs along the
way. Behind me I smile when I hear Hub saying to The Little Fella. “Leave
it.no, leave it?””
If he didn’t say that, what on earth would LF do to the pass
a by furballs?
Crisp leaves formed the path beneath our feet as we walked
around the vast body of water. It’s amazing to think all of that water provides
our tap water? Thankfully filtered… Not sure I would like duck poop in my
glass.
We finished off in a beautiful old quaint pub called The
Black Swan. We had a soft drink. And well, the menu just was on the table as I said,
my friend describes everything to us. So of course, that included what was
written on the menu…
We ate some food, I felt
sorry for the owners. There weren’t that many people passing, it was in the
middle of nowhere. So, if we hadn’t had lunch there, well, that lovely
traditional place may have gone bankrupt. So, we did our bit for culture and
the leisure industry.
My friend kindly treat us to lunch. Bless her.
Back home now a beautiful day had by all five of us.
We are out tonight to our weekly quiz. And then not many
sleeps before my baby is home. He went on a steam train yesterday. He said he
sat at the front where the coals are and visited two cities. He loved it. Today
he is in Havana. He is going by bus so will be tired as it’s a long way.
Tomorrow I must do some housework. We have had a busy week
of life but no house work apart from the basic. The best thing I don’t have to
cook tonight as we are still full from lunch. I find if I eat a large lunch,
and when I say large, I had a bean burger and chips and my friend and I shared
some delicious halloumi chips. Nothing to do with potatoes, but the cheese is
coated in the lightest most crisp batter. Yum. Lovely. But that is more food
than I normally eat in a day. I have had two meals out this week. It’s been
great and to top it, just had a text from my friend who has at last had some
good news thanks to my Nephew. So, Nephew, if you are reading this, love you to
the moon and back!
As I was saying, if I have a large lunch, I don’t eat the
rest of the day and this is a good thing, because obviously eating at nights is
not the best for us.
A couple of you have asked what happened to our celebs on Saturday
as they danced for our dancing competition on BBC1.
For those who didn’t read my blog last week, two of the celebrities
on strictly come dancing, got pictured kissing. He had, a girlfriend she is,
married. Well I thought our audience would boo them off the stage, but no, they
cheered them like heroes. And what made matters worse, they got good marks from
the judges and the public vote kept them in, but it’s not all good for them, as
the other competitors have not been so friendly to them. So, they are still in
the competition, but I bet they both wish they had different partners.
Something I was reading in our news today, and this headline
got a reaction from me. Like what? No, say what?
(CHINESE TO LAUNCH AN ARTIFICIAL MOON TO REPLACE
STREETLIGHTS IN CITTIES)
Nooooo, how would they get that to stay up? I didn’t go into
the story, because I think it’s just worth wondering how and why? Time to use
our imaginations. Haha. Actually, that
hurts my brain to think of how, and I just have to laugh when I think of why?
Other headlines, looks like a part of Scotland has a case of
BSE. Oh, no, my friend had a burger today for lunch… Well, I always tell her
she’s a mad cow. And I won’t tell you what she answers back, the two of us are
like a couple of comedians when out. Well, we, think we are…
For now, I shall leave you but I shall be back. Remember
