They couldn't find the house, didn't have my number with them etc etc. Do yu see the fire coming out of my ears???

I was so cross I went on a long walk!

You're welcome pigale. Last time I asked a married couple they cancelled too, though they had a good excuse. I think I will stop asking people.

Hope the walk did your nerves some good! and I also hope you
wrapped up well if your weather is same as Elle's.

Hi, Rusty!
I think perhaps my last post - quite a long one! - to you (post 18806) overlapped with yours to Pigale?

Maybe I forgot my deodorant?

Hi, Rusty!
No, problem, I thought you must have missed my post!
That is good that your son came to visit you - he will have been have telling you all about yesterday's salmon fishing?
I know that usually the fish are returned straight to the water....is there ever a time when a fisherman eats his catch?
We have a quiet weekend ahead of us ....our younger daughter and family are away......and our elder daughter and co are full of colds yet again.....!

( We really do need to take care after our recent health setback!!)
