Snoop, so pleased the work went well for you.
As for the smiles, I dont think they will be coming to my neck of the woods...not a lot to smile about
Have a good day all.

bramble looking at that quote and reading the one you have posted today, I can understand why you think there is norhing to smile about but just think on the friends and family you have, even the ones you have lost and I am quite sure you will think on plenty of things to smile about, I was out last night and met someone who I hadnt seen for several years, and was asked how my sisters were getting on, on informing him that I had lost both of them we started reminiscing of the fun times I had with them, and i couldn't recall aby time I was angry with them, though no doubt there would be several, but they are all forgotten, it is also worth remembering or looking up the poem 1batfasterd was refering to the other day, it is so true so I do hope you find something to lift you up and smile. God bless

Good afternoon folks, a dull but mild day today with a temperature of 13c, was out at a St. Andrews night last night and such an enjoyable night it was, and was home and into bed for 12.30 and slept till 8.30 this morning and before you ask as I was driving I only had a glass of irn brew, gave OH a hand to clean the bathroom earlier, as she is unable to stand too long there were some things (other than me) that were beginning to annoy her, so have earned some brownie points😇 I asked if I,was going to get payment and she said she would see me later, I hadnt realised her glasses were dirty, if she had cleaned them earlier it could have saved me some work😕. Now going to prepare for a reading tomorrow, and have just realised that its one of the books of the bible with a name nowadays that is pronounced differently from when I learned all the names of the books of the bible when I was young, and no it wasnt that long ago before you think that😏 have others noted how the pronunciation of some word have been changed recently, the one that really gets me is contributed, the pronunciation by people on the likes of the telly is completely different from when I was taught the word, why and who decides to change the pronunciation of words now a days, moan over , have a good day and find something to smile about🙂🙂🙂

You make me smile Rary!…old head on young shoulders… ( well, so they say….)

[bramble]

Thank you Rary...its good to be reminded to count our blessings even in the middle of turmoil.
I can see where you are coming from and I will take it on board.

I am sure you miss your sisters, but like you say, we all remember the good times.
We always remember St. Andrew's day as our eldest grandson is called Andrew.

Have a peaceful night all.
