What are you all up to

Yes catching the Portsmouth to Bilbao one, hope we get a decent crossing.

We've only done it once before to Santander on the Pont Aven, that was ok.

Coming back through France though in June 

Glad your getting used to retirement HD and best wishes for Mrs HD’s operation tomorrow

Glad to see you're settling into this " Retirement " caper, HD, so now  I'll have to stop calling you PUP I suppose .

Best wishes for your Good Lady tomorrow, But I have to ask, assuming all goes reasonably well, how long will it be before she's back supervising again ?? And wipe your boots before you come in  !!

And the same from me too HD. I'm sure Mrs HD has left you plenty of jobs to do while she "rests up". 

Woke to freezing fog off the lake. Got away before it had cleared but soon drove out of it. Home by 9:45 and van cleared out and washing on before 11:00. Still can't get away from the rain though as we've had an odd short shower throughout the day.

We don't like visiting large cities so we avoid them like the plague, although we do like the smaller ones such as York. Much prefer being out in the country.

Tomorrow my wife goes in to hospital to have her hip replacement operation, so I’ve got a few days of peace and quiet.

HD

Best wishes to her. It can be a life changing operation, it was for me. Hopefully she will notice an immediate difference, especially in pain levels. To make the best of it you have to encourage her to do all the physio. It will be slow at first. The worse part of it for me was having to sleep on my back for six weeks!! I never sleep on my back!

Thanks all

it was 2 years ago that she had the other hip done and was back to normal in no time, so she hopes that his one goes straight forward , then she is waiting for the date for her shoulder replacement operation, we spend quite a bit of time at hospitals 

Husky glad you're making the most of your retirement hours, it sounds as if you'll be very productive 🥦🥒🌽🍅🍎🍐🥕🥔. It's nice to hear that you'll be sharing the greenhouse 😉😉 just remember to play nicely!

Hope all goes well for Mrs huskydog today and you stay focused on the tasks in hand.

It started raining last evening and continues very softly at the mo. We've had 4 dry days on the trot despite forecasters saying rain, we've been so lucky, my heart goes out to all those affected by the rain.

Must get moving several things to achieve before appointment, then home and visitors. Enjoy your day folks

What a very wet morning several pitches now under several inches of water and have seen two so far moving to drier pitches  we have a "moat round our  pitch but no water on the pitch,out with Rosa the footpaths in several areas of the park also under several inches of water, and the "beck"near the railway is a full blown fast moving deep river and "rapids"
