Another glorious weekend, weather-wise…
Phew! Drove over to Peterborough to get my hair cut. Came back. We then took Bon-Bon to the pussy parlour (first time the two cats have been apart) for a bath, dry and brush.
Drove back to Peterborough. Stopped off at Jane and Mick’s for a quick coffee. We then went to John Lewis’s to look at TVs and we also bought the lights for the bedroom and managed to get the fabric for the dining-room chairs too!
Picked Bon-Bon up on the way back. Apparently, she hates the bath as much as she ever has!
…and then some gardening where we started to do the annual draining of the pond. In theory, it should have been easy this year as we would try out the new electric pond-draining pump I bought a few months back. No such luck as it ran for a few minutes and kept tripping the fuse box! Bugger! Back to the old method of connecting the fountain pump up in reverse and pumping out the water that way. Same principle but 50 times as slow as the newer method! Still better than doing it by bucket loads!!!
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
