You know I love cats, well to see this video comprised of clips of cats and water is just wonderful. I hope you like these clips too.......... youtu.be/ctJJrBw7e-c

I've come across this fantastically built church or maybe it's a cathedral. I've never seen it, but I would love to. I think it's a smashing piece of architecture.

I thought all the squidgey soft balls were downstairs, but no - Pippin has either brought it up himself or it miraculously appeared upstairs. I threw it into the bedroom and he went in after it and promptly stretched out to touch it, and rolled over and over it, I just had to take photos of him - he looked so sweet playing. He then sharpened his claws on the carpet............... Love him - he's getting over losing Roxy and Tippi now, getting back his kitteness!!

Mandi went to Poland as you all know and apart from going to the concentration camp, she did stay in Krakow which she adored. Apparently it is one of the most beautiful cities she has even been in. There are quite a few squares dotted about, which are great places to stop for a coffee and people watch.............. As you can see from these photos the architecture is gorgeous............. The restaurants look so colourful............... In fact their hotel wou…

Well my local supermarket, Morrisons, was shut all day Wednesday for the final stages to be put into place, for the new look of the store. I must say - there are more goods on sale and more new items to tempt us to part with our money!!!!!! Certain goods have been moved from their usual place, which meant that I had to walk up and down every aisle to find what I needed on my shopping list!!! Don't know about any of you, but I tend to write my shopping list out in order of where I know the…

An American tourist asked a boat guy in Zanzibar, "Do you know Biology, Psychology, Geography, Geology or Criminology?" The boat guy said, "No. I don't know any of these." The tourist then said, "What the hell do you know on the face of this Earth? You will die of illiteracy!" The boat guy said nothing.. After a while the boat developed a fault and started sinking. The boatman then asked the tourist, "Do you know Swimology and Escapology from Crocodiology?" The tourist said, "No!"…

I can fully understand why some people have not known what to write when they've seen those photos, but I thought that I should post them just to show we haven't forgotten what atrocities occurred, even though it was over 70 years ago. My daughter was so affected by her experience visiting there, that she said everyone on this earth shoul go there and hopefully it would make some realise how cruel man can be to man. It might stop these hot-headed people from just doing knee-jerk reactions to…

I have uploaded some photos of my daughter's visit with her school to Auschwitz camp. I have tried to say what each photo represents, but some are self explanatory. She said that it was such an incredible experience, moved her to tears so many times, but has at least made her realise that life is very short and you should take a chance on life. She also says that everyone should go there and just feel the atmosphere, see what had been done, what man had done to man. There were many places…

When I was away at Mandi's I saw this gorgeous rainbow, in fact it was a double rainbow!!! I had to take a photo of it of course............. As you can see it's almost a complete arc. This is the view from my daughter's home from the front..... You can just make out the double................. While I was waiting for the bus to come home today - I took these photos - see I really need to get a life!!!!!!!!!!! I had got the times wrong again - so I had an hour to wait, and so I…

Hiya folks, Well at long last my son is making an honest woman of his partner and they got engaged on Saturday. They've been together over 4 years now, so as far as I'm concerned............it's about time!!!!!!!! As you know, I've been visiting Mandi at her home for the weekend and Tony rang up to say they were coming up on Sunday to see us. That was a nice surprise and hey - he isn't a FOMI anymore - he does actually exist!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL They arrived with their two boisterous, very…

Okay folks, I thought I'd better let you lot know that I won't be on here til Monday night!!! I am going to stay with my daughter for the weekend and on the Sunday my son (he who is now going to be called FOMI "figment of my imagination"!!) and his partner are coming up to see me. I am coming back home on Monday. It's the free bus pass which will mean that I can travel to see them for free (as Mickey says - flashing the pass!) which helps me visit her. Okay it's a long trip - well it's onl…

Today is my shopping day and I woke up to drizzle - not too bad I suppose I thought to myself, but by the time it came close to my shopping excursion, it started to rain heavily............. I went out to go next door to get a lift to the store and this is what I was faced with....................... So I waited until Ann came round with the car, thank heavens!!

Pearl has just put this up on Facebook and it's Maru again................. youtu.be/vZh0G62PWmw

Some of you may not remember, or even know, that my brother died in May 2009. He committed suicide and it was a very traumatic time for us. He was a lovely man, just very troubled and we had no idea that he was thinking along these lines. This is a picture of him with my Mum. Okay it was about 20 years ago, but this is how I like to remember them both. Well when he died, the cost of his funeral expenses came to a whopping £3,500 which was an amount I just didn't have. The Government pa…

Well I have had a cotton sheet on my bed for quite a few months now, but decided yesterday to change back to the flannelette cos my feet were cold!!!!!! WHAT'S THE MATTER? WASN'T THIS WHAT YOU WERE THINKING OF??? Last night I went to bed, tired out and a little bit chilly. I got into bed and it was bliss............ the softness and warmth of the flannelette sheet - a feeling soooo good. I live on my own, so have to get my pleasures where I can - and that is with a lovely flannelette s…

Here's another one - I've been laughing silly over this one. I've seen this behaviour with my cats when a new kitten was introduced. youtu.be/fEV0N6OnbTE
