Yogi, Prague is one of those places my brother has visited and liked

Good morning everyone, it sounds as if everyone had a lovely weekend.   Well done Summer on your 'day of beds' - you have a way with words this weekend EL I am glad you had a good time with your brother EL and enjoyed the cakes he brought.  That hymn was my husband's favourite and is regularly voted favourite hymn of the nation in their polls.

Enjoy your day everyone

 It's great for a city break, El.

Thanks, squiggle
I hadn't heard that hymn at our church before and we may well have it again.

Good evening I have wifi- hoorah!!!!!!!!!!!!! *dances a happy dance!*

El, did you boys have a good weekend?

i hope you've all had a good day, it's been very windy here but dry and sunny, this evenings walk was a pretty one. I've been bumping in to some of my new neighbours and so far they all have been lovely. I loved this house when I viewed it, especially the view it has, but I love it more & more each day that goes by. Bramble and I are going to love living here  

Today I bought some big plastic storage boxes and am going to pack the Xmas decorations in them, then put them in the attic. that led to a discussion at work which asks the question... 

What is the difference between an "attic" and a "loft"???? 

Woohoo, it all seems to be going very well, Summer.

Lofts and attics seem to be the same thing.

In my head (dangerous place to be!) an attic is in a big house and a loft is in an ordinary house.

Evening Velvet.

I'm off to watch Marcella on ITV+1. I need to concentrate.

Goodnight and sweet dreams, Velvet and Summer.

Night owl hug for Ros.

Goodnight yogi & velvet I hope you both had a lovely evening 

ive been sorting out the spare room, I'm officially tired of sorting & unpacking now, I think I need a little break from it tomorrow. I now have 6 large boxes to go into the loft, a car load of cardboard boxes to take to the tip, and 1 bag of rubbish for the bin  

Leaving goodnight & get well hugs for moonie 

night yogi summer-sorry to miss you ,velvet

Good morning I'm pleased to say that the sun is shining here, and the birds are singing I hope you are all waking to a beautiful day  

Good morning everyone

Fairly cloudy here with bits of blue sky.

Summer, we had a pleasant weekend, thank you You seem to be on top of your unpacking

Squiggle, in case you are interested, the original version of Mighty Joe Young is on the Movies4Men channel very early tomorrow morning.

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning everyone, it is a little cloudy here but white cloud with bits of blue sky.  Sounds like a perfect morning to wake up to in your lovely new home Summer

Thank you EL that's very thoughtful to point out about Mighty Joe Young but as I watched it fairly recently I don't think I will bother to record it this time

Enjoy your day everyone

Good morning everyone.

A bright start to the day up here.

I've been to the nurse, the bank, the shops, and got MrYogi's road tax.

I'm now sitting with a cuppa, before taking Keira for a walk.

Have a good day everyone.

night yogi summer and everybody

Night Ros

Good morning everyone

Plenty of blue sky here today

The next edition of Countryfile on Sunday is a Shakespeare special in which Judi Dench appears.

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning another beautiful sunny start here, I've opened the windows today I'm doing a tip run and then shopping for curtain poles. I still have no idea what curtains I'd like but getting the poles is a good starting point  

i love countryfile, and I like dame judi Dench so that will be an episode to look forward to, thank you El  

Good morning everyone, plenty of blue sky here too, good luck with curtain pole shopping Summer, perhaps you will find inspiration for the curtains in the shop where you find the curtain poles.

Enjoy your day everyone

A BBC article today about the history of currency - the first plastic note is issued in September.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-36047863
It doesn't mention that in the past salt was used as a form of currency:
http://encyclopedia-of-money.b...0/salt-currency.html
That's where the word salary comes from.

Just a short visit. Hope you have all had a good day, and Summer has found some curtain poles.

Yes Yogi      

 

If she's not found the poles it's coitains.

Goodnight and sweet dreams, Velvet.

Hugs for the night owls.

*night owls* 

would you believe that the one type of curtain pole I actually want, is the one they no longer stock in store I can order online apparently so I'll look in to that. I did find the curtains I would like though  

I also went to the tip twice, met the girls for a walk, assembled a storage unit, received a desk and then arranged my new "office" area , my garden shed arrived, and then I rearranged all my hair & body products in to a new set of drawers for the bathroom. But the best part.. It was like a summers day here!! 

Will tomorrow be peaceful & lazy..? Probably not, but at least I'm getting everything done swiftly and will soon be settled into domestic bliss

I hope you've all had a good day :keep: leaving goodnight & get well hugs  

night yogi summer velvet

Good morning I hope you all slept well and that this morning is sunny for you- it is here it's so good to wake up hearing the birds singing. 

Wishing her majesty a very happy 90th birthday today, she is a very special lady  

Good morning everyone

Cloudier here than yesterday.

Happy 90th to her majesty and I hope she likes her orange drizzle cake.

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning everyone.

Weather is dry and bright.

Well done on getting so much done, Summer.

A Very Happy 90th Birthday to the Queen.

Have a good day everyone.

Good morning everyone, a little cloudy here today.  Summer you did so well yesterday, I am glad you found your curtains and good luck with ordering the curtain poles online.  I love that you are waking up to birdsong every morning, it is so precious isn't it?

Happy Birthday Ma'am! Quite an achievement.

Enjoy your day everyone

Thanks everyone my day bed for the spare room has arrived, so I've got another assembly to do! I think I'll leave it for the weekend though 

i love how how colourful the queen dresses, she always looks fabulous! 

Well done Summer

Here's some orange drizzle cake though not the one for the Queen:

It comes from a couple of Cranmer's speeches in scene 5 of act 5 of Henry VIII.

Afternoon all.

Lots of sunshine up here.

I got an unexpected visit from eldest son and family. PB was on fine form - she played on her slide and helped Granny clean the plastic clothes pegs.

BB was awake - long enough to get fed.

Hope you've all had a good day. Will be back later.

Yogi, I'm glad you had that unexpected visit

evening  

aaaaaaaw yogi, that's adorable!!!!!

 That's good. You've put me in the mood for a hot chocolate.

Summer, are you watching the programme on BBC 1 about the Queen? It has lots of private family films of the Queen (and her children) as they were growing up.
