Hi Liz. Yes almost a good weekend thanks. Went to Northampton to watch Bristol play rugby and stayed with friends overnight. The staying with friends bit was good!!!  xxxx

I have loved researching my family, although my Irish side is a sold brickwall.  Even having done my DNA hasn't helped with that line.  No definite plans yet, but hopefully soon 🙏

Hi! I hope you are enjoying your weekend.Are the hedgies doing ok? Our skunks are really busy here,I think they must have babies and are running about at night. Lizzy has spied a few at night when her last visit before bed. I have seen one I thought was a cat,though,too low to the ground.It was white and had black on it.like opposite color pattern. Being we live in a retirement community,we always have Lizzy on a leash.We take her on walks and she gets lots of exercise . No fences are allowed as we have the lawn care done for us.   I hope my FL topiary plants go well. I always relied on Amy to help me out on new ventures! I miss the snail games on FL as well. Take care, sending you hugs!

I have never even been to England, I am from South Africa.  My 2x Great Grandfather came from Ascot under Wychwood in Oxfordshire in 1860, but I am hoping to visit very soon 😀

I follow them on Facebook and love how they give life to people otherwise forgotten.  They tell the stories of the patients that were once there.

Just for interest sake, I see you mention Mendip Hills....Is that where the Mendip Asylum was?

Hi Liz, thank you ♥

Hi Liz. We’re going on a tour top to bottom. Starting in Venice and ending up in Sicily. Leaving here Bank Holiday Monday unless someone decides to go on strike to upset our travel plans. xxxx

Happy Evening to you. A bit busy today,tending to Mari and Millie first thing in the morning and all day.They are so cute. I got the patio furniture and umbrella table out. we washed it all and cleaned up the leaves and stuff from winter. It was a nice  day to do it . I even put our boots away!!   I hope you are having a good start to the week!! sending hugs  xx

Hi Liz. No we didn’t do anything special over the weekend. Played golf on Saturday and we all went to watch Bristol try and play rugby on Saturday. Back to work yesterday and although it started off wet, I had a bit of machinery to repair inside before the weather turned and I could do some mowing in the sunshine.

Off to Italy soon. xxxx
