Not really a joke, but I couldn’t resist

It’s Mother’s Day here.

A very tough time and Margaret (1) thought all women had that sort of life, very sad.
I’m really hoping that she got to see better times.
I’d be interested to know how old she was when she died.

Thanks Stanley, I enjoyed all of that. Looking forward to more.

Definitely starting to feel cooler, the sun is still bright but not as strong. It’s Mother’s Day here tomorrow .

👍 Finally got the pluming fixed yesterday afternoon. Even tho it was the laundry that flooded, the problem was a blocked drain in the bathroom. He also did the vanity taps, one was slowly dripping and he fixed the kitchen taps, one was noisy and shuddered . Ah I do love a Tradesman. All good to go n...

Gosh Tize your post makes me sit up and think. Hopefully those that can do something , and others, will hear you. Who is listening?

Yes a lovely pic Stanley, the kids look like they are full of fun.

Thanks Ian, I was thinking somewhat along those lines also to do with the Iron getting so hot.

I’m hoping it could turn out to be a blocked drain. The Landlady said possible burst pipe because it has happened here before , but that was outside. This place is 30 years, I’ve been here a good 16 years , it’s about time a Plumber checked the pipes. Hopefully one will contact me tomorrow.

Anyone else?

Haha Yes. Sorry I’m a bit frustrated - I’ve had an awful day. This morning I was doing a load of washing, when I heard a gurgling noise. I went to investigate and found that my laundry (tiled) and hallway (carpeted) was flooded with water. Oh no! Messaged my Landlady in a mad panic with a pic, she m...

I’ve tried 3 times to post on this topic, yes I’m logged in, but it doesn’t go thru

Congrats to all, I’m losing track. Haha

Tourists often lay on the ground, waiting for the Quokka to come to them , then take a selfie.
Quokka’s often look like they are smiling. Very cute.

Wendy, what will you do with the pesky Shrew, if and when you catch it?

Wendy, it sounds like you have been having fun and games (not ).
Has the Shrew moved on?

We’ve got The Marlow Murder Club starting this week. Is it any good?

Thanks Ian for getting us back to normal, much appreciated

Our deciduous leaves are changing their colours. Every so often a tree will suddenly drop a mass of leaves. I love watching it happening.
Our street sweeper will come soon. Some people are watering their gardens, due to lack of rain.
