Hello Gillian. Long time no speak :) how are you?
Hi there! Have not seen you "around" for quite long. Hope all is fine back there.

Am fine, though rather bored: it gets so HOT here that one cannot move until after sunset OR at 9-11am, after which the sun starts striking. Was telling Lyn, even Oli seems to be annoyed by the heat! Sounds funny. :D

Great you popped in Jean.
Still going strong here as a Cold Dark Room day is 48 hours, so still 25 hours to go!
Thanks for popping by, we're honoured.:)
grab a drink and some nibbles, there's still loads left!
What's the temp in NY ?

Thank you. It has been in the 90's which is hot for us....and really no rain for the past several weeks which is unusual. So I'm glad that it's damp in here, it feels refreshing. I should have brought a few plants with me...or maybe my tort. Francis although she seems to really enjoy this weather. Lots of outdoor time.

I had one of these!

A xylophone or trio of tribesmen playing them?

I had a tin one - my sister hit me over the head with it and cut my scalp.
I can remember my Mum holding me over the kitchen sink so she could run my head under the tap. When I saw all the blood I thought I was dying there was so much of it. It was probably more water though!

Hi Kirsty - hope you had a word about that torts water dish!!

Is that Edinburgh Zoo? My sister went there a few weeks ago. I haven't been to a zoo in years. My nearest (Bristol) has changed a lot - no big animals anymore - they don't have the space to house them properly which is fair enough and progress I suppose. Longleat is the place for lions etc. Haven't been there for years either.

Sorry I had to dash off earlier my washing line broke so had to go and buy some new waxed rope and do a balancing act on my ladder to fix it. All done now and normal washing and drying can be resumed - weather permitting.
I've also been fiddling around with my bike - I'm not sure if my handlebars are on the wrong way - only because a basket I wanted to put on it won't fit. probably the wrong type of basket.
If they are on the wrong way I could meet myself coming back when I ride it.
