Afternoon all, a grey but dry day here.
Quite tired today after my airport run as didn't get much sleep before I went as I have earache because of my cold which is making me deaf and possibly some tinnitus as it sounds as if I have a whining machine in my ear! :mad:
When I eventually got to bed still had to be up early for Lola; also dog sitting for a few days and Fudge has no respect for time - when she's gotta go she's gotta go!
Thank goodness its half term and I have time to recover.
I bought crumpets for breakfast but unfortunately as I have the attention span of a gnat when it comes to cooking I wandered off from the gas grill, so the first 2 set the smoke alarm off and looked and felt like they could be training aids for the discus. The next 2 were delicious though!
I used to call them 'Tubby Toast' when my young niece used to stay with me - a reference to the Teletubbies favourite food.

Ah, now here in Wales we do have AMs (Assembly Members) - they must get up earlier than the PMs!
They are elected members of the Welsh Assembly who meet at the Senedd in Cardiff Bay)
We don't have our own Prime minister, the leader is called the First Minister for Wales.

Hi Lyn how are you and Lola? Good, I hope.

Interesting. As I was reading your post I thought you were joking.

Oh, poor guys, they probably don't get as much sleep as PMs. Unfair, isn't it?

A flying visit and a quick hello from me I am taking my sister to Cardiff airport in the early hours of Sunday at 4 a.m so going to try to get a few hours sleep before I go.
Sorry I missed Adam but I have wished him a good trip the last couple of nights.
Looks like @JoesMum is having a fabulous time too with all that beautiful architecture to enjoy, and I enjoyed Gillian's jokes:)
Congratulations to all those torts who have made the calendar and hope the rest of you are all well.
I expect I will see you sometime tomorrow but Nos da for now.
Want more jokes @Lyn W ?

Regards to your sister, and hope you had a good night's sleep.

Hope you are now better Lyn. Take care - colds are a pain in the neck! :( Wishes for a speedy recovery. :)

Even you have a dog? :( I did not know. What does it look like? Don't like dogs, am scared to death of them but I'm just curious. :rolleyes:

How's Lola? Hope he's well. ;)

Hi Gillian I'm just dog sitting while my sister is away. I am her second mum so she's quite at home with me, she is still scared of Lola
though and won't go near him. Lola's days are getting shorter as he is up later and going to bed earlier at the moment. He eats well while he is up and about but it must be the changing light through his windows that is affecting him.
My cold is a pain in the ear rather than the neck at then moment, and the noise in it is annoying but bearable, thank you for the good wishes, I hope it goes as quickly as it came.

Gosh! The dog is scared of Lola. :confused: I would have expected Lola to be scared of the dog. When I take Oli out for the so-called walks, you cannot imagine how frightened he gets when he sees a cat. Thank GOD, no dogs around to care either of us. :)

Taking any medicines, Lyn? Take care of yourself. ;)

Lola is quite curious about the dog and if Fudge is near his gate he walks towards it, Fudge the dog has never seen anything like Lola so she retreats quickly if the strange creature moves!:) I wouldn't trust Fudge near Lola though as a scared dog could attack.
Only taking some painkillers at the moment Gillian but I probably have a middle ear infection because of my cold so may have to see the doc if it doesn't disappear on a few days. Hopefully it will clear up by itself.

Lyn, please see a doctor asap. :) I'm now the one to give you a lollipop, a sweet and some choc if you do. :p Pain killers, I believe do not cure colds. What about some lemon juice? :<3:

I agree with you: I would never trust a dog/cat if a tort is around.

Good evening Linda. Still in France? ;)

Happy Sunday to you as well.:) What's Joe up to? Where is he? (if I may ask).
Hello Gillian and CDR

I'm currently sat at Gate 15 of Bordeaux Airport watching the delay time for our flight increase at regular intervals. Latest estimate for departure 00:20 local time :(

I don't have work in the morning, but JoesDad does.

Joe is in the care of my daughter and has been continuing his house-brick impressions. Hibernation in a few days :)

Sorry to hear about your delayed flight, Linda, what a shame that had to spoil your lovely weekend. Hopefully that is a very broad estimate and whatever the delay is won't take that long to sort out.

:eek:...Poldark has just let me down he is not the man I thought he was:(
