Thank you Richard. Electrics OK now thank you. Plumber went to upstairs flat yesterday late afternoon & checked everything.But he has to find out where that water is getting in. Wall of kitchen faces north west & sheltered by bungalow next door. Back of building faces west, with a road going...

Ooh, that sounds lovely Wendy. I'd definitely have to go back there & have a look when I had time. Would be interested to hear about this kiosk if you manage to get there sometime

We've done the same & have the same here here Lyudmila - people leave books outside houses/ blocks of flats or in the vestibule for people to take - also many go to charity shops too. But it must be a really lovely surprise to find a book in an unexpected place like that

Hope everyone OK & survived this awful storm, especially those in Ireland Scotland. . We had winds 60 plus but in some areas of Snowdonia winds gusting 77 mph. Husband & wife got blown over in Llandudno main shopping area, were taken to hospital it says on news. How awful!! DH had to go out ...

Very striking

This is beautiful

So sorry to hear that Mabel & do hope you will soon feel better. What an awful thing to happen must have shaken you up.

Hope it gives youngsters incentive to go& do some sport. Any sports is good for your heath, rugby is the roughest one I know of but even so the ...

Thank you Sallly

Took a look at my threads on kit & some are rather flimsy. A shame as they used to be excellent. Maybe that was why I put lakeside village away for a while because I got fed up with quality of threads. May sort out some of my own to put to it.

Had rain overnight here too, misty today very light rain. Du to get even hotter next week!!!

celebration

Know where Hawarden is Garnet, can understand weather fronts differ your way; as you are nearer England, towards Chester, so weather would be different around there. We get winds swirling, not swirling weather fronts! In v. hot weather could not see high places because of heat hazes. Then, when rain...

Sorry, should have waited a few weeks before mentioning the C word! These snowmen & snow ladies as well as being colourful look so happy having fun I just had to buy them! Another by from Dimensions. Have seen heads at funny angles on angels. Glad it is not only my take on them. Thought it may h...

What beautiful things you have made. You must be pleased with the outcome, well done

The purple splash fabric goes well with the thread. Nicely stitched

Praise be! What a special baby she is, such a fighter, glad she is progressing so well.
