Hello Ed, I have been working at the shop for a year now. Started working there after I moved out of Thornbury and settled into life at Rye full time. Happy with my life here. I have met so many interesting people. I do miss Jamieson but could never have looked after the property on my own. I don't miss Thornbury house. Just miss the neighbours. Dinner done, leftovers. Yesterday when I went shopping at the local supermarket I wanted to buy some eye fillet steak. I only go to the butcher there as I do not like packaged meat. The butcher was chopping away and looked up, "Be with you in a minute mate." He always calls me mate. I was happy to wait. He also knows that I like a good thick piece of eye fillet. Small offerings on the tray. I chose one and then he said, "Tell you what mate, I will toss in another one for free." and he did. Enjoy your day.

Hello ED, me again,  I worked at the Charity shop this afternoon. They are finally listening to me re. placing the children's books with the adult books. YAY! Now to make it work by finding room. I have a few ideas. Once again it was an enjoyable afternoon chatting as we worked.  Yes we did say A Pinch and a Punch. As a teacher I could not allow it. Another strange thing the 1st of August is known as the Horses Birthday. I wonder why?  As is animals even know or care about birthdays. I asked Mungo and Mindy and they just stared at me. Have a great day.

Hello ED, I did worry. Pleased that your bank detected it. 2 GOLDEN RULES. Don't answer unknown calls and NEVER give your details to a caller or email message. I always phone the bank or whatever rather than responding. Scammers are quite clever nowadays and can make emails look like they from the real deal. So happy that I could help you. Enjoy your day.

Good evening Ed

We watched Juror no 2 last night. It's quite good.
Mixed bag of weather today. Shopping and housework. 
Did not have cake with 66 candles! Think I would have burned the cafe down. 😆
Have a good day

Mouse and Mallard, ty

Hi Ed
Had a lovely afternoon tea 🍵
Ended up bringing cakes home for Jim
I wore my spotty raincoat,  so it didn't rain
Sticky evening.  No thunder
Hope you had a good day

splashed-- white mouse--I think I must have a velcro attached to me someplace as I have a cat that is stuck to me. He is once again sound asleep on the desk in fron of me, Weather--that is the question--it looks misty but they say cloudy so they could be low clouds but it could be all the humidity or now we have air quality warnings--so no end to the fun. Yes the first of the 3 tournaments leading up to the Fedex will be on this weekend. Could be good seens as it is the cream of the crop to start with and then gets pared down. I am caught up with the Jays--was nothing much on some days and caught some of the games--would be nice if they could go all the way again--might shakes some people up!!Glasses and I still getting along nicely and I am happy. Have a good day.

Hello Ed, the Tsunami was not a problem for Shannon. Just me worrying. As for book suggestions for you... anything by Alexander MacCall Smith. He is so funny. My reading has been quite serious lately as you know. I hope that you ring your bank to sort things out. Funny thing today I got a friendship request from Julian Lennon. Well as a Beatles tragic my finger wavered over accept. Rational thinking kicked in and I deleted it. I had liked a so called accidental meeting with Paul and Julian a few days ago on Facebook. Now Julian wants to be my friend? I don't think so. It screams SCAM. The scammers are getting clever. NEVER give your details to a phone caller. Hugs.

Oh! Ed be careful about phone calls. I NEVER listen to phone calls or text messages that I do not know. Even if they seem legitimate. If it is something about my bank etc. I ring the bank not the phone number on the message. Hugs.
