Maggie we have done that too, beans/toast instead of a sunday dinner, makes a nice change 🙂



I had to get him to do something, so housework seamed like a good thing, he's no good with other things like windows, bathroom nitty gritty stuff but i think i'm getting him well trained 😉

Don't bother bringing the walking stick gems, we've got a special pole with a hook on the end.  It's similar to the one we use for the fig tree. Grandson (he's 😎 comes and picks the figs in the summer, I save him plastic punnets and he puts 6 in each and sells them on a stall at the gate for £1 a punnet.  He picks the chestnuts and weighs them out in half pound bags for 50p.  He's a right little entrepreneur! :^O

Morning all...no baby news?



Love eating chestnuts too but not cooked so have to fiddle peeling them !!



As a child we had a huge horse chestnut tree in the garden and I spent many happy hours sitting under it reading.....and winning when playing conkers at school 😄

*tuts*

I am with cats 🙂  The nasty boys are staying with us until Monday.

Ginger one is a beggar as he always wants to be stroked so as you go up the stairs he runs up and quickly lies down in front of your feet on a step.

Watch this space for my own hospitalisation.

Not a meow out of any of them.
