Busy morning,cleaned and dusted the front room,including cleaning the floor.Done the window inside and out with my window cleaning kit and Accy's advice of a drop of washing up liquid.Going to have a sit down and sarnie before i decide what to do next.No prostate bleeding for two days now.This is a little test,to see if the activity causes it to bleed.

Ian McMillan, the Bard of Barnsley, has tweeted that 'Brian Eno did a collaboration with the Andrews Sisters at Epsom'.

That should cause an upset.
Salt of the earth! Brian Eno lives just outside Abingdon, my mate looks after his wife's bees....

I am sure that when @Fab Foodie goes on a caravan holiday, he make sure there is plenty of room for the Yawning.

Is Charmouth in Dorset or Devon?
Dorset.
My Grandfather who lived in Axminster used to take me fossil hunting on the cliffs at Charmouth. He used to tell a joke about a special Dinosaur that used to slide down the cliffs on its backside called a Charmouthsoreass :-)
Oh to be a child again....

I might have told a fib earlier on when I said we had a fab holiday in a caravan in Devon.
Did you meet any of the locals whilst you were there?

Lunch would be a good idea. I skipped breakfast because I wasn't feeling so good. Now I am hungry.

Except I can't move because I have a Poppycat on my lap.

Tasha decided to venture into the house today, for a total of one hour. She sort of lurked in the kitchen and, of-course, at the top of the stairs.

Bob was out and I think she liked the peace and quiet. She is now snoozing in the garden, sheltered from the wind. I think I have to accept that she is ageing rapidly. As she was a stray, for however long it takes a cat to have two lots of kitties, I expect that has an effect on her life expectancy.

Google maps tells us that this traffic jam we're in crawling past Bristol will add 70 mins to our journey! The farm shop at Gloucester services was full of yummy treats. It's been open for 2 years but it's the first time we have been there. We might have to call in again on our way home. The cheese counter looked particularly tempting but we're staying in a B&B tonight who would not appreciate a piece of Stinking Bishop.

Meanwhile,in the BA lounge in Rome Mr Loudmouth has been TALKING VERY LOUDLY to his mate blaring out of the ipad on his lap...I have just bellowed at him to turn his ipod up a bit so we can all join in the conversation.....
His wife who told him to be quiter is now embarrased and Mr Loudmouth has buried his head in his Daily Wail. Tosser.
Meanwhile I am feeling huge and smug.

Postman is feeling rather good.I am not one for sitting around a lot,when i can see things that need doing.So i continued cleaning windows, outside and inside,including Mrs Postman's outside grubby filthy window her craft room..As yet i have not been up to look from the inside but boy it was dirty.Also i have had a go with my new curl bar and weights,nothing too difficult.Got a plan off YouTube.So i am looking forward to see if i don't bleed next time i go to the loo.

On another note i have just found a local cycling club that needs volunteers to assist with a short cycling day on Saturday,it's only 10 mins away.I just might go down,it will do me good.

We went there for the first time this year when we went down to see Coffeejo. Fantastic place isn't it, the pies and sausage rolls are so tempting.

A Gordon centre? You name your gazebos?
It tuned out to be a pergola that we were looking at.
We had a bit of fun trying to buy a plum tree. We had to put it on a trolley, wheel it through a busy shoppy bit to pay for it and then have it taken away to be delivered next week. Imagine what mayhem we could have caused if it was a big bushy prickly thing.

Are they accessible from both sides of the Motorway? I thought I read somewhere that one or other of them is only available north or south bound, not both. I may be wrong of course. :unsure::scratch:
