The fire is lit

[tonicha]

The wood arrived on time - ish (well, this is Portugal ) they chucked it down on the back patio, it then took Grumpy nearly 2 hours to get it inside - he wouldn't let me help, nor Joao. And the garage now smells of Christmas It's a gorgeous smell, piney, appley, wonderful

And it was a lovely hot sun, walking - slowly - down to the car boot. Sadly, the cheese lady wasn't there, but I had a scrummy coffee and cake and strolled back. Leg slightly swollen after all of that, but it was the furthest I've walked for nearly 6 months - and I didn't fall over, twist my ankle, nuffin

Now the fire is lit, dinner is cooking and the only problem is




darts on the tele

Grumpy used to play for Wiltshire and was a very good darts player, so every time the darts is on, he watches it - avidly then tells me what the player should have done etc etc etc etc

Well done Ton, real progress - now rest it!!

There's been snooker on but Bb has had to watch a film instead - Real Steel, boxing robots

Lovely Ton - you'll be all snug for the winter now

Such rubbish on telly this afternoon - I found a Miss Marple we recorded on the Vision Box and am watching that now

Will you stop over-exercising for goodness sake, it's not good for your leg!

If you HAVE to watch Grumpy shifting wood - sit down with a snifter.
