Good morning splash--golden dragon ty It is a dull morning here and starting at 8. Jessicas girl friend who is the hairdresser came by last night and cut my hair so no more hair in the eyes or all over,as per my request she cut it very short so no fingers can even comb it. We are having the same problem with our Christmas although all will be there boxing day. Jessica informed me last night she won't be here Christmas day as she is at her boyfriends and won't be home until evening(it is a train ride away) Just got a call and a nurse will be here shortly so that will free me up to go to tea. Got to get on my high horse now--so have a good day

Hello Ed, TY for the Peace Dove. Have you got Rules of Civilty yet? I have made and eaten dinner. Although it is not quite dark yet I have the cats inside and I will soon head to bed to read. Unusually for me I have not romped through the Lee Child book. I am close to the end. I guess that I have been to busy lately. Enjoy your day.

Hello Ed, another memory of the farm was that there were many hills and some led down to the river. As children we would run down the hill and try and stop ourselves from ending up in the river that was fast flowing. No one drowned however some of us got wet.

Hello ED, TY for the love birds. OH dear poor Tracey. Her son and SIL really should help her and leave it to you. I went to the art group today but didn't do anything as all the tables were taken up. They offered to put one out for me however I was happy to just sit and talk. Enjoy your day.

Morning splash--peace dove ty. It was a better morning,no early phone ringing.There reallly isn't a lot on tv that I am interested in so a lot of my time is spent daydreaming or sleeping it seems--still moving slow as the cut up by my waist is hard to get past. One more week and the staples come out so maybe moving will be easier. I will have so company later today as Jessica's best friend is a hairdress and is coming to see her today and will drop over and cut my hair for me.. Nice sunny morning to start the day sohopefully it lasts. Hunters news --one buck hanging ready to butcher. Have a good day.

Hello Ed, re what was I doing on the farm. As both my parents worked and school holidays were an issue, I was often delivered to the farm that my father's friend worked on. I called them Uncle Ken and Aunty Rose. I guess my brother was looked after by my Grandparents? Another question for Mum. They had 4 children and the oldest was also named Dianne. I was 1 year older than her so we became known as Big Dinga and Little Dinga. I loved my time with them. The memories of waking and sitting by the fireside having porridge for breakfast. Exploring the farm. We as children were allowed to free range. I have so many happy memories of my stays there. I will have to write this down for my children.  Haha I almost started a story of the blind ram for you and then realised it would take many words. So I have another story to write once I speak to Mum about why I spent time in the farm and where was my brother at the time. Meanwhile night has fallen as is the rain. Dinner done and cats inside. I think that I will sleep well tonight now that I know Grace and baby Spenser are well. Enjoy your new day.

Hello Ed, re, Letter Box blowing up. It was when I was staying on a farm. Sir Arthur Warner  owned the family and the family I was staying with managed it. They had 4 children and we freely ranged. I cannot recall whose idea it was but we blew up Sir Arthur's letterbox. I think that the parents replaced it as Sir Arthur was not in residence at the time. I and I do not recall any of getting into trouble for it. Strange.
