Garden centres, Anne and chickens!

Bea went to the garden centre yesterday and WhatsApp me some lovely hens photos because she loved Anne’s Bantams picture.

So that’s to cheer us up! She also came back with mother and baby pottery rabbits for the garden! Aria went to sniffle and gave us the look thanks but Im not that daft, I’ve got the real thing next door, which she went to visit before going to bed! I heard Bea’s voice saying you know you are not allowed to go next door and so

Aria came in all sheepish... until next time!

I need to get some sleep 🛏 💤 😴 ..will have to listen to some boring radio podcast with my earphones it makes an alternative to sweet meditation!

Nighty night xx

What a lovely good night picture and story, Fran 🐔🐥🐔 Thank you so much. I've been a bit over excited since the match.....had to text Matt, our son, on his hols in Cuba. Must be a poor signal because he hasn't replied!!! 🏝🏖

Night night for now, hope you've found a mundane audio story! You're no doubt glad to be home, with adrenaline a bit high. Do hope you're more comfortable though now with your new specs 👓

Love ❤️ 🤗 Penny

[Hidden in reply to Yatzy]

Haha..he must have seen the score for sure..don’t know what is the time difference with Cuba!

Specs are helpful thanks 😊 xx

[Yatzy in reply to Hidden]

Cuba 🏖is in the north of the Caribbean islands, and five hours behind the UK 🇬🇧 I had one text on his arrival saying palm trees 🏝🏝and temp of 29/30. I think Robert Browning wrote, ‘Oh to be in England, now that April’s here!’ I think I’ll rephrase that to Oh to be in Cuba!! We’ve had such a run of cold wet weather

Have a good day, Fran xx

Nice fluffy chicken photo, thanks for sharing.

My neighbour has bantams which escape from time time, but not such cute ones as those. We used to have rabbits and cats, but the big rabbits used to chase the cats.

[Hidden in reply to knitter]

Wow I didn’t know big rabbits would chase the cats, well those pottery ones will do for now! Bea loves that garden centre. Our daffodils are out, and tulips are coming out too..Spring is in the air!!

[breatheeasy1]

[Hidden in reply to breatheeasy1]

Glad you like them, thought Bea wanted some too but I said with Aria that isn’t going to work 😃

Happy birthday 🎂 to your 8 year-old xxx

[breatheeasy1 in reply to Hidden]

[Hacienda]

Beautiful Photo, makes you think it is Spring. So Glad your on the mend Fran. Love n Hugs xxxxx

[Hidden in reply to Hacienda]

Thank you Carolina. It took a turn for the worst last night, well just popping in the pills and raising my steroids again. Hugs back xx

[Hacienda in reply to Hidden]

Querida Fran, it all gets too much doesn't it, Rest and Pills, and Bea looking after you, of course Aria lifting your Spirits. I too have been up most of the night, Although not for me, my Chihuahua, Princess had a nasty sickness bug ? so lots of cleaning to do (mainly by Hubby). She's asleep as he is, on the sofa at present. I'm also starting my next lot of Tablets, bit late. Have a Lovely Sunday, Hope the Sun comes out Today and opens my new Flowers, like most of us we blossom in the Sun.

Un Brazo con Besos.

love n Hugs . Carolina xxxx

[Hidden in reply to Hacienda]

Corazon abierto para ti, que noche mas mala! Bea had to take Aria to the vet last week, he thought she drank out of garden puddles so 5 days antibiotics but then she started again so he took a blood test and a culture and gave her imodium for cats for now! Hope your Princess lets you sleep tonight xx

[sassy59]

Hope you slept well Fran and thank you for the great photo.

Aria just loves the real thing, no pottery rabbits for her. 🐰

Have a good day. Xx 😘💖

[Hidden in reply to sassy59]

Thank you Carole. No this is turning into a pleurisy maybe those antibiotics are not the ones I need, still I will see the doctor tomorrow or go to the hospital.

Love 💕

Fran

[sassy59 in reply to Hidden]

Bless you Fran, please take care and feel better.

Thinking of you. Xxxx

[Hidden in reply to sassy59]

Thank you Carole 🌸🌷🌺

What lovely looking chickens. They look as if you could be cuddled, not that I can really imagine cuddling a chicken! My soon to be new daughter in law (in two weeks) is having chickens and two rabbits when they move to their new house!

[Hidden in reply to helenlw7]

Bea said they were so lovely and fluffy that she wanted to bring the family home!! Aria would love that!!

Oh good animals are a joy xx

[helenlw7 in reply to Hidden]

Animals give so much love, even chickens I’m sure, without expecting anything back. I’m sat looking out at the rather grey garden, drinking my first coffee of the day, with our puppy snoring away on my knee!

[Hidden in reply to helenlw7]

Ahhhh may we have a puppy picture?? 😊

[helenlw7 in reply to Hidden]

Yes but I’ll have to start a new thread - that’s the only way I can put photos on using my iPad.

[Hidden in reply to helenlw7]

Okidoki 😊

[Dubba61]

Cute little bantams! 🐔🐔We have Lincolnshire Buffs. Where i work. I'd love some at home but gardens tiny. Hope you av a good Sleep. I've bin loglike two nights. 💤🛌😊

[Hidden in reply to Dubba61]

Oh Lincolnshire Buffs? I have to look them up. I have a garden as I am on the ground floor of a block of flats. My neighbour has two rabbits for which Aria has a fascination..

Glad you slept well, I don’t at the moment I sleep in bits but it will come back once I have lowered the steroids and finish the antibiotics.

Take care xx

[MoyB]

I always blame the steroids for a bad night's sleep, but last night I was awake for ages with no steroids involved for a couple of months. We could have kept each other company! Hope you soon get the right meds and feel better. xx Moy

[Dubba61]

Yes, feel so much better with a good sleep. Think that Lincolnshire Buffs are an uncommon breed nowadays. They're fat n fluffy remind me of the film "Chicken run". 😊 Yep steroids'l do that everytime. Hoping to move soon so will hopefully get a bigger garden and a few Chickens. Little dog 🐕 too maybe.looking forward to it. 😊🌻✌️

[Yatzy]

Hello dear Fran 🌺

So sorry to hear you think you might have pleurisy now too, like Anne. You'll have to provide a sample to make certain you're, as you say, on the right antibiotic.

💞Thinking of you and hoping you'll be much better soon 💜 Maybe Chelsea will have a good game and cheer you up...just as long as they don't creep toooo far up the table!! Ha!! ⚽️⚽️

Lots of love, and healing, my friend, 🌸🌼🌷Penny xx

[skischool]

So Bea can now pull rabbits out of hats all be it that they are made of clay,you can now see through walls and maybe into the future?what lies in store for all of us Happy and what new super powers have been bestowed on Aria?

The thought of a flat full of felines with super powers,even though they are slightly jaded at the moment brings fear to any man.

Dear Penny gloats in triumph,the two Manchester's have beaten each other into submission,she cares not for our beloved Psg and Chelsea,watch her like a hawk with those new eyes.

Have a happy day happy Fran and you too Penny............ Ski's and Scruffs xxx

[Hidden in reply to skischool]

Haha.. Cats, hens and pottery rabbits my garden is filling up 😂

Yes Penny has joined the Happy gang last night, I kept on telling her to keep faith like you usually tell me 😃..PSG gave their worst performance of the season I think..and now for your blues..😇

I have sunglasses 😎 on my regular 👓 inside as the luminosity kills me, I am in a complete daze because of the strength of the meds laying on my heating pad because of the rib pain I look like an alien 👽 so it’d better be a good match 😉

Enjoy xx

Fran
