Morning All …
A hot one!
No fasting as going out to lunch..
Charlie’s dog food has got lost in transit hope it soon gets delivered..I am ok for a week.
Hedgehog..
It’s a worry and a good idea to go to the bank and sort POA out, just to have in place.
Nice to have the garden sorted.
Dave..
Enjoy the bowls more you than me…
Steve..
Well done on the fast day even the orange lolly 😂
Hemmy and Nana .. what you up to?
Looks like a very late walk this evening Charlie won’t like that…

Good afternoon everyone. Xxxx
Its a beautiful May 1st .. always a sad one though as its the anniversary of losing my Andrew. . 13 years today … it still seems like yesterday.
Earlier walk then went to The vets and collected Pips Flea and worm tabs for 3 months. £61..
Lots of my friends buy on line Flea and worm tabs. What does everyone here do.
Earlier lunch .. well Breakfast really as just had an all milk coffee this morning.
Ranch chicken breast .. mash and broccoli this evening.
3 months 2 weeks 2 days no wine.
The page has turned..
Sym.. Lovely day for going to lunch … I think its my favourite social time now.. a nice lunch and chat. .
Hopefully Charlies food turn s up. .. Was it from Amazon.. I had a delay once kept having notifications it was arriving it did after a few days.
Enjoy your day everyone ” Contentment is not the achieving of what you want but the realization of what you already have.”.. Xxxx
Afternoon All…
Beautiful hot day sat under my brolly in the shade.. Charlie will have a late walk.. still he’s asleep in hot sun now.. stupid boy.
We had a lovely lunch out, looking across the fields sat under a brolly, so peaceful. A couple of Guinness and a toasty, more than enough.
Hemmy..
I stopped Charlie’s flea and worm tablets off the vet’s last year. I believe they were giving him seizures, although he still has them.. I believe they were started off with the tablets.
I give him natural drops weekly on his body and worming drops two days a month on his food.
There is a lot on line about how dangerous the medication is.. but each to your own.
I also rub coconut oil in his coat twice weekly… I must start that again, as it will be tick time.
I stopped his insurance too.. he now has his own bank account standing at £2600 at this moment in time.
His food has turned up today.
Have a lovely time in the sun with pip..
Xx
I’ve stopped taking Chloe to the vets all together.I buy online now. My first dog was 19 when she passed away and never once went to the vets for anything. What worming do you do Jean sound good to me. It was boiling at bowls one more game left this week. I’ll miss Monday’s game will be at speedway and it’s a funeral on Wednesday so only Thursday and Friday next week.
Evening!
Hemmy- a big hug for you, sad day 🤗 Sounds reasonable for Pip’s flea treatment, I’m sure we pay more than that. Xena’s on Symparica, it’s a tablet so not great for them but it’s the only one we’ve found which stops the ticks, they’re a real problem around here with all the deer…
Dave- a hug for you & Denise, tough times 🤗 Try & keep strong with the food, you’ve done so well…
Jean- a nice view for your lunch, not a fan of Guinness, yuk! A nice cold cider maybe … Is that the last meal out for a bit? Not long until your holiday!
Autumn sky- you do well resisting the biscuits! Sounds like you’re quite rural, I’d love to be out in the country more, we live in a rural area but on an estate…
Got the bank done for Mum, they were really helpful, that’s one account done out of 3! Had a coffee out with sis, fasting again today.Did some more in the garden this afternoon, it’s been another lovely day…We might go out tomorrow if it’s still nice.
Dave..
It’s called All Natural Pets on line, both bottles for about £15, used for year still a lot left..
I grate carrot and give bunnies ears to help clear their systems clear of worms.
I also rub coconut oil on his coat, remembering under his arm pits, in his ears to prevent fleas and ticks.
It’s called layering..
Lots of people around me don’t give anything at all.
Worth looking…
Hedgehog..
Last meal out for a couple of weeks.. Christine is going on holiday so no coffee mornings.
I love Guinness I must try the zero… good you have one of the bank account sorted.

Hello all!
Brads27 – Resist the biscuits!😄 Where are you going on holiday?
hedgehog – Herts is a great place to live. I remember when we first moved there we went for a drive around the local area and saw a stand with a cardboard label with several bowls of eggs. ‘Help yourself’ the label read. It was then that we realised we weren’t in London anymore.
Started my fast at 19:00 last night and broke it at the earlier time of 12:30 today. Actually felt hungry when I arrived home at 17:45, so it was in the bread bin looking for the end slice (my go to comfort slice). Had chicken, rice and veggies for supper this evening with yoghurt.
Feeling a little excited as I ordered a few books to read for this long weekend. Love the smell of new books.
Have a great evening.
Good morning everyone, the sun is out but it’s much cooler today. Going bowling again but shopping at Sainsbury’s first. Mince and tatties for tea tonight, got a fair bit of colour these last two days even legs are starting to go brown, normally like bottles of milk😁. And you can see where my watch goes. Denise is like a mummy with her legs bound from knee to toe.I think Yorkshire is my favourite county even though I’m from Lancashire. But when it’s cricket then I definitely like Lancashire best 🤣😁. If the weather in Britain was like it’s been the last week then I would not even think about going abroad on holiday. And if Denise is going to be bad then we may not go again. She’s been looking at cruise’s for next year, will have to see how she is. One of them is to Monaco, Barcelona and the french Rivera, have been to three french Rivera but not Monaco and Barcelona. So that’s the one we will probably do if we can and a week’s stay in Majorca.
Good afternoon everyone.. another beautiful day. Xxxx
I am making the most of it as its going to be all change in the next few days… seasonal I expect.
Scales were kind this morning I had lost a lb so my lowest weight now.
Thanks everyone for pet advice.. I have decided to stay with the vets for tabs.. as they know Pip. and he gets a yearly examination .. Heart etc Also stay with Direct Line Pet Insurance £95 per month .. speaking to other dog owners ..one recently had to claim £5000 for vets bills Operation and after treatment ..a big chunk in one go. Hopefully all our fur babies will carry on being healthy.
Salmon and salad this evening .. Icecream and some of my neighbour tasty rhubarb with some honey in the micro.
A S.. Are you weighing weekly or no set time. It sounds like a good week for you .. I love reading.. a mixture really .. I am just on my 7th M.C Beaton.. Agatha Raison book.. I love them .. a lady detective with a potty mouth lolol.
Nana. Weekend… a time for Geraldine?
Dave.. Hopefully you and Denise will get your cruise really try to go … Monaco is absolutely beautiful. its just like a fairy tale ..white toy town it takes your breath away.. The most wonderful villas there as lots of the famous have homes there. I was enthralled when we went..
H H.. You have had a busy week.. so good you got Mums stuff underway at the bank. Did you go out somewhere nice today.
Sym.. So glad the food turned up.. xx Yesterday wasn’t too bad.. I said to Pam .. after 13yrs I just have to let it go being sad on anniversary’s of this and that. I think I was sent a sign by ole Mum on this mornings walk lol .. I was so busy thinking about the past that I completely forgot I had parked at a different gate while walking the bridle path . So after a long walk I had to back track about half a mile I heard Mum say “Concentrate Carol ” lolol
Enjoy your afternoon everyone.. The weekend is for no daily routine and doing what you fancy. Xxxx
Evening everyone!
One of my books arrived today. Got a few things to do before I settle down and crack it open.
Brads27- Charlie Parker series by John Connolly (I’m on book 19) and Orphan X series by Greg Hurwitz (I’m on book 9) are my favourites at the moment. Two completely different genres but I do enjoy them.
hemmy – I may weigh myself tomorrow. I try not to weigh myself too often and focus on how the clothes fit and how I feel. Probably once a week, if that.
Fasted until 13:30 today. Was not too hungry with the hot weather. I am drinking at least a few litres from the time I get up in the morning to the time I go to bed. Work was good today. Only a few tasks left on the ‘to-do-list’ before I left.
Got to enjoy the wins when you can.
Have a great evening.
Evening!
Hemmy- oops, a longer walk than you planned missing the car! I don’t expect Pips minded! Good idea to keep the insurance for him, we had a £3,000 vets bill with Josie & that was back around 10 years ago! Really well done with another pound off!
Dave- hope that Denise’s legs do improve, it sounds really miserable…BIL’s dad has it, & foot infections which won’t clear up because of diabetes, he’s in too much pain to go out at all…is Denise okay to go to her Spanish lessons still?
Jean- well done doing a FD today, usually your day off, I’m sure you’ll get back to losing soon for your holiday!
Nana- are you out tonight?
Autumn sky- enjoy your books, not ever read anything by those authors…I love reading but only if I have time to get stuck in! Hopefully your clothes will be looser soon!
I lost nearly 2lbs this week, worth the hard work! Just had one meal today. We went out to do a river walk not that far away, a friend had mentioned walking there & I’d not heard of it! It was a beautiful day, & a lovely walk…Now I’ve sussed it out I might take Xena although it’s further than I usually take her in the car. Sis is seeing Mum tomorrow, so will be nice to do something with hubby…
