Good Morning All.
I woke up this morning to the sound of water dripping from the gutters.
Much as I love my morning walk sometimes it is great to get another half an hour nap.
16 year old is coming for the weekend so Jasmine might get a walk later.
She was,pointedly, ignoring me as I left for work.
So…Russia has the next world cup.
The best of British luck to them.
Am still wondering what we are going to do with all those wonderful stadiums.
That are going to cost a fortune to maintain.
Now that I am having to pay the Receiver all that extra money I take great interest in what the goverment is spending MY money on.
In other news our elevator is not working.
I will be getting a fair amount of exercise everytime the coffee urge hits me.
My boss is in a VERY good mood.
I am suspicious.
And now I am off to the tyre people to see about the puncture they never fixed properly.
Am practicing my granny look.
They should be very afraid.

Good luck and have a fab Friday … only 8 hours until wine o clock!

I was also quite happy this morning to hear it raining hard. That 30min extra sleep did wonders!

My daughter downloaded a horn app onto her smart phone, complete with a vuvuzela. I wanted to throw her phone out the window when she played it for me. The World Cup now has that connotation for me. Wonder what the Russians will come up with? Good luck with your tyre (tire here in the US). Aren’t cars a pain?
