Morning splash--field mouse ty.. It is bright sunshine and we have cold weatheer but rain moving in this afternoon and hopefully warmer weather.Tea was sort of a disjointed afair as some people got mixed up with the holiday putting some people out. The one  lady went and knocked on a few doors and we were back to normal. They have finally got the new locks on the storage room doors so had to pick up that key --only trouble is its the same key for the whole building--so we will see if there is some dishonest people around although it is individual locks on the lockers so may still be fine.Off down now to try and get the wash done--Have a good day

Hello Ed, dinner done and I will soon be in bed. Funny story re. me slipping up with names. When my daughter Hope was born, David and I decided to give her his mother's name as a middle name. Lesley had passed away before Hope was born. When our local Priest came to chat about her Christening he hesitated and then told us to say her name out loud. Hope Lesley Briggs. We were both horrified and Hope had been registered from birth with that name. David said "Well her name has to be Hope Dianne Briggs."  And that was how she was Christened. We didn't think any more about that until Hope applied for a passport. Happily it was all sorted and she got her passport. Now I must  go to bed as my lights are flickering which means a power failure. I had better find a torch. Enjoy your day.

Hello! sprinkled

Hello ED, it has been arranged for Mum to stay for 2 more weeks at the Respite Centre. Mum is happy about that. My brothers and Nephew had good conversations with her after I alerted them. So your friend Kevin is back in his marital home. I hope that it works out for him and his wife. Enjoy your day.

Morning splash--sun is up and if the forecast is right we are going to warm up to the level of spring but a couple of days and we will be back down near freezing.(Not putting the winter wear away yet.) I am supposed to have company this morning--Ry is supposed to bring the lettuce his mom bought for me over and have a visit. That will be a nice change as he hasn't been able to visit much with the hours he had to put in at the rink.Not used tocompany in the morning but we will take what we can get and thenI will be off to tea this afternoon. Kevin seems to be on the mend,just a sore stomach from all the coughing but the marathon of care he gave himself over the long weekend seems to have paid off. Have a good day puttering in the garden.

Hello Ed, When people tell me their name that is what I use. As I walked home this morning I began thinking about my obsession re. my name. Then I had an interesting insight. My dad's name is Robert Barry Paull. When he first met Mum he told her that his name was Ron and that was what Mum and her family always called him. His own family called him Barry. His Navy friends and later work colleagues called him Bob or Bobby. I never heard anyone call him Robert his actual given name. I was always confused by his many names. No wonder I became pedandict about my own name. Towards the end of Dad's life when dementia was kicking in he always insisted on being called Robert. I wish that I had asked him about all his different names and why. I will ask Mum. Dinner done and I will soon be in bed with a book. Oh and by the way.... why is your fairy called Linnypoos?
