good mornooning wibblers, it's been a long month but finally we have made it through:)
Good morning John. Good morning all.

It has indeed been a long month for all the wrong reasons.

Like you said, we made it. The ranks are somewhat depleted, but will hopefully recover soon.

I'm looking forward to a wibbling April - let's enjoy the last day of March :)

Today's plans are gardening for my next door neighbour. Lawns and a bit off dead-heading as it's "green bin day"

Lawns (both ours and hers) cut.

Daffs dead-headed (both ours and hers)

Pin pad lock on their side gate dismantled as neighbour has no idea what the number is. Her late husband installed it, but didn't tell anyone the number :rolleyes: :D It wasn't hard to drop the mechanism out and leave the handles. It looks like it works, but she can just use the bolts now to secure the gate now.

Telling off received from JoesDad who thinks I have overdone it given I was at physio yesterday. :( Mistake to do things when he's working from home.

Oh and neighbour's new grand-daughter arrived last night weighing 6lb 9oz. Emma Alice :)

I love the name Alice! When the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge had their little girl, I was hoping they'd name her Alice!!:) But Charlotte is a truly lovely name, too. :)

Hubby and I are off to Austin, Texas for his niece's wedding!
Should be a really nice time- will send pics once we're back home!!! :)
Have fun! Looking forward to your postcards.

I shall be going to see Luton Town FC v Blackpool tomorrow. Not quite as glamorous. Actually, not at all glamorous. One of the oldest Association Football clubs in the world and the ground feels like it hasn't been modernised much over the century and a bit it's been there. Quaint it ain't!

Luton is not exactly on the tourist trail for anything except the airport (a bit like John's Paisley!) but JoesDad was born there.

No Linda no plans as my back is not very great at the moment in a lot of pain so chilling out for me hope u ok and enjoy your football match :)
Sorry about your back. I am hoping I have got away with today's exertions. I'll have to wait until the morning to see how stiff I am.

Too right. The seating at Luton varies from wooden benches installed circa 1910 when the average person had considerably shorter legs than me (I'm 5'11") through to newish plastic installed after standing terraces were banned in the early 90s. We sit in the newest seating as it has more legroom. It's not exactly comfortable, but I can at least move after a match usually! I've sat in the old stand twice in the last thirty odd years and it was excruciating.

The ladies loos are arguably the coldest place on the planet. I honestly have no idea how they're sub zero even on the warmest days if the year :D

It's hard work bring married to a football fan, but if it wasn't for him I wouldn't have had Joe or been on TFO. :D
