How weird!

Just replied.

Marigold, you and I obviously dance around the same Facebook area - I saw this poem on Facebook yesterday! And I've noticed other posts on here - jokes etc, - that I've just seen on Facebook!

Oh Marigold! Oh dear! That is funny - - it caught me off the hop, and my sudden laughter turned to a bad coughing fit! My cold has cleared up completely, thankfully, but the dreadful cough lingers. Hope you'll soon be well again.

Hope you'll soon be better Marigold. Thankfully, I'm almost over it - at least I hope so. My daughter got this dose, and in spite of how ill she's been the last couple of months, she got over it quickly. Eldest grandson also got over it quickly. Younger grandson however, didn't get over it...

Thanks for the cheering up, folks! I've got the worst cold I've had in years, and feeling a bit like death warmed over! Definitely in need of a smile, before trying to sleep.

Here, anyone keeping even one or two chickens is supposed to be registered with Dept of Agriculture. It's been that way for years - definitely since early 2000's when I first started keeping chickens. I know several people who keep chickens, but I know many won't register. Not sure why - it...

Helping their Nan carry the shopping. ?

Like a lot of celebrations, Commercial interests saw a way to cash in.

Well, St Brigid/Imbolc has not disappointed us for their first Bank Holiday! The weather felt closer to April than early February, blue sky, bright sunshine and very mild. I've spent a couple of hours clearing miles of brambles, which was very satisfying. Of course, there are still many...

That famous breed, the "Double-butt"? ?

I know Spring officially starts in March - but in my gut, I've always held to the "old" seasons - so, Spring is February, March, April; Summer is May, June July; Autumn starts in August and Winter at the beginning of November. I just wish the weather would kindly keep to this schedule...

Bank Holiday here tomorrow, a brand new one. 1st February here is "St. Brigid's Day". The Christian Church, in ancient times, sort of adopted/co-opted the old feast of Imbolc, a fertility and renewal feast, marking the first day of Spring, the return of light, and the hope of provision in...

Absolutely beautiful, Marigold. He'll keep you on your toes. I'm sure he'll be well able to take up the baton passed to him by Poppy. It's a whole learning curve, when we've had "oldies" and suddenly have to deal with very young animals again! Cats are the same. I was so used to my sedate...

Tomorrow's the big day, Marigold- when you bring little Pippin home? We look forward to seeing pics.
