All cakes finished yesterday. Marquee arrives today.
Lots of family time too. Last night our hosts provided a meal for some of their family and all of mine were there, it was so special to have everyone together.
More family and friends arriving over the next 2 days.

On the subject of cheeks....observations around Bologna suggests that many young ladies have been washing their shorts on far too hot a wash.

Morning I'm looking at the world from a different perspective. I'm in Yorkshire.
There weren't half some down pours on the way up here with some lovely sunshine and blue skies in between. People are making plans to do things.
In other news I've just noticed that one of my socks has had a software update.
It now has a version of Windows.

I applied for a parking permit. Life doesn't get much better than that.

Getting one might be better.

As the women at the office (who eats crisps on the outside of her head) enjoys a packet of Quavers, my thoughts turn to weekend chores and excuses not to do them.

Pasta Bolagnese in Bologna (slow food restaurant-fab!)......
For starters 34 month aged local prosciutto and thinly sliced pork cheek. Real melt in the mouth stuff :-)

Not a slate, wooden plank, shovel or ramekin in sight.

They serve food on what, then? I love hog jowls and ham as well.

I hit 'off' instead of 'snooze' on the clock radio this morning. Nearly disasterous

I always hit off.

That sounds like you are plumping the cushions in preparation for you and the girls to relax all day.

In sharp contrast, today I am defrosting the freezer, and sorting my kitchen drawers out.

Earlier this week, Tasha had to visit the Vet. She was continuing to lose weight and not eating properly. The vet said she may have an infected tooth. She was given antibiotics via injection, and must see him again in four weeks. Already she looks a bit brighter. I expect it may take some time for the pain of an infected tooty-peg to subside. Then she may need to have the tooth removed.

Not quite, but a few time-outs with paracetamol, a hot water bottle and chocolate have been required in order to retain functionality.

I have still managed to do the laundry, put away the tools I took out to fix the porcelain throne, stake up the gladioli that have been blown over in the wind and clean and oil my bike. At least I don't need to cook tonight as there are enough things in the fridge that need using up - it will mean a rather random if tasty plate of food.

Awh, poor Tasha. Do give her a gentle headrub from me and the girls xxx
