Firstly, for those that haven't joined their gang and received the email - Cobweb & Gnome have updated.

The weekend has gone past way too quickly. I woke early Saturday morning and saw himself off to work, then decided that I was still tired so went back to bed again. Upon waking up the second time that morning, I stretched and then shot out of bed with excruciating cramp in my calf muscle. I was hopping around the bedroom like a one legged pogo sticker when my other foot got caught in the dressing gown I’d discarded on the floor. To stop myself from falling over I put my leg with cramp back on the floor – unfortunately the cramp wasn’t ready to give up without a fight and that leg gave way, throwing me head long into the wardrobe doors. I rebounded and ended up on the floor. One hand criping my calf, the other holding my head – and swearing for all I was worth. If I could have stood up again I’d have kicked the wardrobe doors into next week. I've had nothing but problems with those wardrobes.

We went out for a meal with Tracy and family on Saturday evening, which was very enjoyable. She’s working such long hours of late all we seem to manage is the odd text message and I’ve missed her. So we had a lot of catching up to do. In fact nearly everyone I know is working long hours of late, I've hardly spoken to Pooks since before my holiday.

I’ve still not found time to sort out all the photos I took in Spain so I reakon I'll just have to add a few each day, but I have spent Sunday working on the next Chapter of JJ. Which, thank God, I've nearly finished. One more chapter after this and I should be able to wave them goodbye for good ;-) My other story has been returned by Ms Wag with a few pink boxes - we'll forget how many pink boxes came back with its first draft, gloss over that bit, so I'll update when I can find a few minutes.






Casa Batllo by Antoni Gaudi - the first house that Scally took us to view. It really does look like a castle of bones.

Talking of Scally, I have to admit that we did get into a bit of a fight on holiday. Not my fault of course. It was all over who was paying for lunch and I have to tell you that she fights dirty. I was desperately trying to pay when she grab my arm and started to pull me away from the counter, whilst telling the girl in Spanish who was serving us not to accept my money. Unfair advantage that. A lot of pushing and shoving then went on. And her behaviour left a lot to be desired, I can tell you. We’re stood in the middle of a busy shop, at the front of a very long queue and she’s telling me to go away – not in a very lady like manner either! Terrible example to set, good job child wasn’t with us at the time. I lost btw, she's stronger than me.

Anyway, Dilys has now retired and I'm covering her work as well as my own so I'm a busy bee today, as the famous rabbit always says 'That's all folks'.
