Morning all.
-2 here at this moment. I don't want to get up but have to deliver biscuits for morning tea and support GD who is playing in the Bagpipe comps.
Should be a nice day once it heats up.
Hope everyone has a good weekend.

Good morning everyone and thank you all for your well wishes.
Snap Chookie, it's -2 here as well with frost covering the neighbourhood.

Good morning everyone.  It was -3 when I got up this morning, now risen to -1 with thick frost every where.
CC, enjoy your weekend with your GS

Morning all.
Having a sleepin.
GD was placed first in her section of the Bagpipe comp. this is good as she is a shy kid lacking in confidence. It takes a lot of guts to stand and perform in front of people who are going to judge you.
CC, enjoy every minute with GS. I am sure he is delightful.
Our house guests are shifting out today. We will miss them with their coming and goings. They will be 1.2 kilometres around the corner.
We have enjoyed the 2 dogs.  The older one, from a shelter, bit Ral on the bum when we first met him. They are now good friends. The little Bulldog is delightful as are all puppies.
It is -1 at the moment, but will be a sunny day after the frost. Same here Mab.

That's great news about your GD Achoockwoman,  Not many kids are playing bagpipes at all.

I made fudge yesterday again, so packing that up. 22 kilos..

It's very quiet on here this morning - for me it is due to EOFY stocktake stress, plus the cold mornings don't help, however, the sun is shining and it looks lovely outside.  I hope the sun is shining for everyone.

Congratulations to your GD, Chookie.  A couple of my cousins are involved in pipe bands in Scotland, one is a tenor drummer, the other is a piper. Your home will seem so empty now with the family and dogs gone, I am sure you will miss them but it will give you a chance to really settle into your new home.

How's your home after the renovations, Robyn?  Are you happy with the outcome?

Hope everyone who is suffering with colds and flu will recover very soon.

I'm sorry Chookie but I laughed when I read Ral was bitten on the bum by the dog. I do hope it didn't hurt and I'm pleased they are friends now.

An enormous CONGRATULATIONS to your granddaughter. She must feel very proud of herself as I'm sure you all do too.

You must be very proud of your GD Chookie, she is the only child I've heard of having the bagpipes as her choice of a musical instrument.  Please pass on my congratulations to her. They must be excited moving into their new home and it's far enough away that you will be able to lead separate lives when you so wish but close enough to keep that tight family bond that you have.

Good morning everyone.  Another frost one here today.
Chookie, Teddy looks very comfortable there under the blankets. :)

Cold here also Mab. Expecting rain later.

Good morning all, a nice winter's day here - although the wind is not so nice, we've had a spell from windy conditions for some time now but it's finally arrived.
Have a lovely week everyone.
I thought he must have had his own bed Chookie but going by the colour I take it that's GD's bed.
