Posted on 08/04/2021 21:05 by WherenextMust admit that the way things are going with ever increasing sizes and the lower end of the scale difficult to find we may very well end up there.
When does Mrs Nellie's probation finish?
I'm a bit surprised that there hasn't been an announcement allowing the marauding hordes in yet. We'll probably find ourselves on a "Firebreak" by the time you get to Wales.

Posted on 08/04/2021 18:21 by WherenextYou been on the "funny" pills again Brian?
In answer to "largist" question we both sit midway in our recommended BMI range. So there.
Plus neither of us has to shop in the childrens section (just).

Posted on 08/04/2021 20:18 by TakethedogalongWe keep thinking about it. Sowerby Bridge and Hebden Bridge aren’t too far from us, and we had a good look around barges. There are hire places on the Grand Union at Warwick as well. Not a cheap holiday though, and does require effort around locks. I think it would be a bit too laid back for me at the moment, I do like to get some walking and cycling in when away.

We did a canal boat from Sowerby Bridge, not to Hebden but the other way to Salter Hebble and beyond. Went with my sister and BIL for a week. Great fun but it did frustrate BIL at that time as he was wanting to go faster couldn't sit still for the life of him.
Where there was a few locks together we sent him off on foot ahead we got as far as Stanley Ferry East of Wakefield, from there on the locks are electric assisted and it gets much easier. OH and I would like to do one again but not with those 2, they both snore enough to wake the dead

We have been home styling. OH keeps his hair short anyway, so I am used to occasionally clipping him, in between times he wants a bit more style, but his Summer preference is very short anyway. Things get more complicated with me, had my long tresses shorn a few years ago, now usually sport a layered shortish look. Convinced him just to trim around my ears, and neaten up back, but he says it’s been the most stressful bit of lockdown, having to trim my hair🤣 Still looks ok, but I am losing my layers.
He’s an easy cut after fettling dogs and horses.👍Moans a bit more about any sprutters not tidy though!😂
Decent hair scissors are the key. I was getting no where with the paper hanging scissors🤣

Posted on 09/04/2021 10:10 by WhittakerrI've cut my own hair for about 8 years using descent clippers and guides ranging from No1 (1/8") at the base of the neck to No 12 (1 1/2") on top.

I don't remember the last time I went to the barbers. My father always used to cut my hear when I lived at home. Since I got married (some 42 years ago) my wife has always cut my hair. Not that it needs doing very often these days...... Not much left!

Off to the caravan today to quickly clean the inside (outside done last week), and to put in bedding, towels, throws (to protect seats for dog) and Safefill gas bottles. Will go via screwfix to pick up silicone spray to treat all rubber seals.
On the way back, a quick visit to Pets at Home vets to pick up the dogs heart tablets and to get her claws clipped.
