  1. Wordle 1,360 5/6 Wrong choices here.
  2. Morning all, the sunshine has gone it’s a cloudy start and forecast to be colder. I’ve got to go to the dental lab this morning, I have a partial top denture which broke in two last night. I’m hoping they can fix it as I wont get a dentist appointment before our holiday next week. I haven’t got much else on other than that, we’ll probably have a walk this afternoon but not too far as my thighs are still sore from running on Saturday. Have a great day.
  3. Morning all, it’s the last day of the warmer weather so make the most of today, next week is colder. My Fitbit had a message on the app saying I’ve been overdoing it lately and I’ve got to take time out to relax so I’m going to do just that. My legs are aching from yesterdays park run but I do need to mow the lawn so I’ll do that today but that won’t be too strenuous.
  4. 5 years since Covid impacted all our lives Do you have any specific memories? I’m glad to say I have no really bad memories we didn’t lose anyone to it or even have anyone ill, I do remember the fear of what might come and that was hard, fear for our loved ones. We were 3 days into a holiday when lock down was announced and packed our bags and came straight home. I do have happy memories of doing jigsaws to pass the time and walking the streets chatting at a distance. Life seemed to slow down the roads were quiet it seemed so peaceful. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c798l9gz4y1o

  6. I agree, Maynard was quick to see he was struggling and subbed him at half time.
  7. Ho hum, it’s Notts County we are used to disappointment. We were totally outplayed today, I thought Wimbledon were excellent or did we make them look good. Johnson had a bit of a mare, he didn’t look comfortable at all and I was glad to see him substituted. Having said that no one really stood out, Jatta had no service at all, it said it all for me when the Notts fans started chanting “we’ve had a shot” when a shot went on target. If we have any aspirations to be promoted we have to do better, be stronger. I really hope Didzy and Jones are back soon and give the team a lift.
  8. The park run didn’t go well I was disappointed my time was just over 40 mins that’s the slowest I’ve been for ages but then I realised I’m lucky I’m able to do it at all at my age so my mood lifted until after I’d watched the Notts match, what a disaster, least said soonest mended. This afternoon our son came round with a rose plant which apparently has golden flowers an early wedding anniversary for us, how thoughtful, so this afternoon I’ve been planting it in a sunny spot in the garden, I’m not very green fingered so I hope it flourishes, I’ve put some well rotted compost in the hole and sprinkled with fertiliser. Fingers crossed.

  11. Good morning it’s another lovely start to the day. I’m up early and getting ready to do the Park Run, it’ll be busy today with the fair weather. Later I’ll be watching Notts take on the Wombles of Wimbledon on the telly and hoping for a win. COME ON YOU PIES! Have a great day everyone.

  13. I try to steer clear of pies too, my mam used to make a fabulous meat and potato pie. I can almost taste it as I write this.
  14. Connections Puzzle #635 Really annoyed I didn’t get that green line, too impatient.

  16. Morning all we had a lovely long walk yesterday sorting out geocaches we started in the woods which were a bit muddy then came out into some lovely open countryside, we sat on a bench and had our sandwiches in the sunshine and thought how lucky we were to have beautiful countryside within walking distance of home. Today we are going clothes shopping for a few bits and bobs ready for our cruise. Curry night tonight, I’ll have a small portion as I want to carry on the weight loss I’m now lighter than I’ve been since August 2023. Have a great day everyone.
  17. @Chris I think you’ve done exactly the right thing talking to your children about Chloe, it’s better than shutting it away. We have tried to do the same with our grandchildren Steve’s kids, we always talk about him with them to keep his memory alive and I hope they remember him for the fun loving happy dad he was rather than for how he died.
  18. I have some very good friends who are Spireite fans and they speak very highly of Phil and what he’s done for the club, it’s a tragedy for him and his family but also for Chesterfield FC and their fans. I wish him a painless release from this world and I hope his family can bear the inevitable sadness at the loss of their loved one.
  19. I think we can still make that third spot but we need our best players fit for the run in, the fans need to get behind the team and support them especially when things aren’t going well. We’ve bounced back from poor form before and we can do it again.
  20. @Chris It sounds like a nice thing to do with the family for Chloe’s birthday, we generally go away when it’s Steve’s birthday because it falls the day before our anniversary, this year we’ll be at sea on our cruise on the way to the Canaries on the day but we will certainly raise a glass to Steve, he’d appreciate that.
  21. Lovely sunshine here @Robbie we are going to have a walk in the woods to maintain our late sons geocaches, before he died he set quite a lot up around the surrounding area and people still get a lot of pleasure finding them but they do occasionally need replacing or the log book gets full or wet so we like to keep them going in his memory as long as we can. It’s quite a long walk to reach them all so we’ll be ready for a rest when we get back. Have a nice day everyone whatever you are doing.
