Well done Linda. Lena You took my spoon,[emoji31] [emoji30] sniff sniff. But congratulations on getting the spoon. With great spoons comes great responsibility. Use it wisely.[emoji6]

Wow. I just got caught up on all the forum posts for today. Did a great job of relaxing me and I think I'm going to call it a night.
I hope everyone enjoys the coming day!

 

[JoesMum]

Good morning all. Apparently we won a football match last night?! There's little else on the news which makes a pleasant change from 24/7 Brexit. (That's political so no more on that)

I have proof reading to do today... so I had better get that done before the tennis starts!

PS I stop being a tennis bore at the end of Wimbledon - last day Sunday week

Lol. Not a bore. And good luck with the proof reading.

We have an odd shaped garden that borders 5 neighbours who live on 3 different roads.

One of our neighbours blocked the hole the hedgehogs were using between our garden and his yesterday.

After researching exactly which house I needed to go to on Google Maps satellite view, and armed with camera trap photos, I popped over to see him this morning and he has unblocked the hole [emoji4] He was afraid it was rats going through, but we only have hedgehogs using it on the camera trap. [emoji4]

Fences make good neighbors - some wize person said that a long time ago. Glad that issue was resolved.

Today, 4 July! Is US Independence Day. Our kayaking group is paddling along the Anacostia River into downtown DC. Ive managed to secure an American flag to the bow of my boat for the day’s paddling adventure.

Awoke to find at least three large White Tailed Deer munching away on our garden.... lillies, monarda, trumpet vine, hosta all favorites....

Still hot hot humid and hotter....

Well done. Glad he was willing to unblock the hole.

I’m never sure whether I should be wishing Americans a Happy Independence Day... it is after all a celebration of becoming independent from us Brits

I was even less sure when we went up to Menwith Hill Station as guests of our neighbours in the bicentennial year 1976

Happy Independence Day to everyone over the pond!

For some reason I had this song as an earworm this morning. I think it’s entirely your fault Mark!

@Yvonne G is all well with you? We haven’t heard from you recently?

Morning all, happy independence day to all my fellow Americans. Sorry Joesmum but today's the day we say, Take that England and now we traditionally celebrate with alcohol and explosives (not the greatest combination). Hope everyone has a great day today. I've got the day off and just plan on relaxing. What a great soccer match yesterday, congrads England!

Wait.... I think alcohol + explosives = Guy Fawkes night. ;-)

Back at you... Happy 4th.

It'll serve to sweeten up the bitterness from the fiasco of my picks in that last round!

That was sweet of him! But 5 neighbours, wow!
