Evening Nicky, lost count of how many times I’ve got wet today, school runs, dog walk, tesco lol.
Glad the cough isn’t too bad now, hopefully you’ll be back to normal soon.
I’m still plodding along with the book, trying to do too many things with any free time I have.
Cant believe Luke paid £90 for a sweatshirt 🤦🏼‍♀️ make sure you wash it properly haha
Enjoy the rest of your evening, I’m tired tonight, school runs finished for this week so I can take my time in the morning. Hugs xxxxx

Creamy Cajun Chicken sounds good I love slow cooker meals ,,,, enjoy xx

That’s really bad Nicky. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, although too late, it’s to be persistent, or get someone to do it for you, as when you are not feeling well it’s not easy to do it yourself. I think things have gone so downhill and the medical profession could do with improving as a whole, even private doesn’t always make a difference as it’s often the same old people with the NHS attitude of just getting through appointments and ticking boxes instead of really doing their best to help patients. I hope you are on the mend xx

I appreciate that greatly, my
Dear ☘️

Hi Nicky, thank you for all your help with this game! Still no babies?? :)

4. We haven't been to Loch Coruisk on Skye yet. That's 3 times it's been cancelled due to wind and now Colin is too busy renovating on his days off. It is all paid for though so he can try & reschedule once his Mums' bathroom is finished. He has stripped out & is now refitting her main bathroom which had the original avocado suite from about 50 years ago. His Mum has been staying with his brother & his wife since having her hip replacement. There is no reason she can't be back in her own house as there is another shower room plus a downstairs toilet but she is clearly enjoying the company & getting a home cooked meal put in front of her every day. The arrangement was for 2 weeks but she isn't showing any enthusiasm for going home yet & it's now almost 9 weeks. It sounds terrible but I'm glad she didn't come here. As much as I like her & get on well with her, I think everyone needs their privacy & it must now be frustrating for Ian & Catriona as they have given up their en-suite bedroom to accommodate her & she is sitting holding court in their only living room, telling them what they can watch on the telly :-D

3. We have had blue tits in one nesting box & either great tits or long tailed tits in another but both broods have now fledged. Colin doesn't like putting nuts out for the birds in the spring/summer as he says they can choke the babies but this year I have kept filling them up as I read, as long as the nuts are in the correct container they are perfectly safe for the birds to feed their chicks as they only get little bits at a time. It has been fascinating to watch a Mother Woodpecker trying to encourage her chick onto the hanger with the nuts. The chick just wants to sit on a branch & wait for Mummy to feed him. Lol. Hopefully we might get another clutch or 2 of chicks this year. I think they have been earlier than usual because the weather was so good early on. We have 7 ducklings coming in with their mother to feed from the trough. They must be 5-6 weeks old now & almost as big as the mother duck. We have loads of drakes hanging around. There are always a lot more drakes than hens. Mother Nature really needs to pull her socks up & rectify that :-D
