MORNING VIV, IT,S ONLY HALF PAST THREE I WOKE UP TO GO TO THE BATHROOM NOW I,M WIDE AWAKE. I HOPE YOU ARE HAVING A LOVELY HOLIDAY I,M GLAD TO HEAR IT IS ALL DISABLED FRIENDLY SO YOU CAN SHOWER PROPERLY GLENN HAS JUST REVEALED TO ME THAT IT WILL ONLY COST  AROUND £30 TO MEND MY SHOWER AND NOT £500 LIKE HE TOLD ME WHEN HE 1ST LEFT I AM FUMING WITH HIM. BUT USED TO STRIP WASHES NOW A SHOWER WOULD WIPE ME OUT NOW BUT IT WOULD BE NICE TO BE ABLE TO WASH MY HAIR IN THE BATHROOM RATHER THAN THE KITCHEN SINK. HOW LONG ARE YOU ARE AWAY FOR I CAN,T REMEMBER SORRY MY SHORT TERM MEMORY IS GETTING EVEN WORSE YET I CAN REMEMBER THINGS FROM YEARS AGO SO CLEARLY.SARAH HAS BEEN AWAY AGAIN WITH BEN FOR A FEW DAYS AND IS BACK TOMORROW.I AM HOPING TO SEE THEM AND ARCHIE OVER THE WEEKEND, I STILL HAVEN,T HEARD FROM NATHAN SO I,M GOING TO CONTACT HIM AND SEE WHAT IS GOING ON THIS TIME.
ENJOY THE REST OF YOUR HOLIDAY I HOPE YOU HAVE HAD A DRINK FOR ME LOL CHAT SOON XXXXXX

Hi Viv, we just came back from holiday last night, too tired to unpack so trying to catch up now in FL in between getting washing done & out on the line & tidying things away. I've already been to Tesco for some shopping. We had a nice break. It was dry & sunny the whole time which is unusual in Harris so we were lucky. The ferry crossings in both directions were good too, nice calm seas. We did a lot of touring around but saw everything we wanted to. Next on my wish list is the Uists & Barra, still the Outer Hebrides but different ferry crossings, hopefully next May as May seems to be the best month weather wise.  Good to hear Nicola is doing well. I really struggled getting up on my tiptoes. I could do it easily in the hydrotherapy pool but not out of it & although I was back dancing after 9 months I felt flat footed on my right foot. I think it was almost a full year before I could get up on my toes again. I don't think I am going to enjoy the Gold Extincts - so many gardens with regular food & even those with SF have so many WRC or dragons on the plates depending on the mushroom int he garden. I do like to colour all the pictures in though & I love the Ibex vase so I will persist at the moment. Well done to you on completing them so quickly. Hope all is well with you :-)

MORNING VIV SORRY I HAD TO GO SO SUDDENLY BUT THEY HAD PULLED UP AND I COULD HEAR ARCHIE RUNNING IN HE LIKE TO SURPRISE ME BY MAKING ME JUMP YOU KNOW WHAT KIDS ARE LIKE. SHE DIDN,T TELL ME THEY WERE ON THEIR WAY SO HOW SHE WROTE THAT TALL THAT I DON,T KNOW BUT SHE DOES IT IN HER POCKET AND SO QUICKLY IT AMAZES ME. IT TAM AGES TO TEXT THAT WHY I DON,T VEY OFTEN. ANYWAY THEY CAME BACK AT DINNER TIME AND WE HAD ANOTHER BBQ JUST A SCALED DOWN ONE AND THEY DID SOME GARDENING CUTTING HEDGES BUT NO HELP WITH PLANTS AND I WAS TOO TIRED TO WATER THEM SO THAT,S AN EARLY JOB TODAY AFTER ANOTHER CUPPAS WHEN I WAKE UP.

I HAVE TO GET OUT EARLY BEFORE THE SUN COMES ROUND AND I,M GETTING UP LATER AND LATER SO MY HUNTING TIME IT BEEN CUT WHAT TIME DO YOU GO  OT ARE YOU GOING TONIGHT?
