Apart from the weather Easter has been nice, I went to my older daughter for lunch with the rest of the family. Lovely Sunday roast beef and a delish Chocolate hot cross bun pudding! also cheesecake, and jelly with cream, ice cream or custard, I baked and took over a Victoria Sponge, Delia Smith's recipe which was nice.
I had been trying to catch up with garden jobs but today they were on hold, and yes I did have a nice family lunch, afterwards I went out with Tommy [gr gr'g-son, and , Martin, son in law and his grand dad, for a bit of kite flying, well how I wish I'd taken the cam corder, it was hilarious, 5 dogs , one little 5yr old boy an old lady [me] and the kite flyer, [Martin] there was no wind to speak of, so it hardly left the ground, but when it did the squeals of delight would waken the dead, then it would crash and the string would get tangled round dogs or anyone who was in the way, eventually one of the struts broke. but we've promised him a better one for when he comes over to me, as up on the cliff top you can almost always be assured of wind. Everyone enjoyed it, back to Arlene's for a cuppa and welsh cake, now home, with dogs fed and watered and me relaxing.
I am probably closing my Wordpress blog as every time I post or reply to a post I get asked for my password, I put it in and it's WRONG, I've lost track of the number of passwords I've submitted, the most annoying thing is that when I change the pw I go back and the reply or post has gone. absolute pain in the butt, Blogger is very much easier in many ways. I just need a few more friends. :-(
Thank you for visiting and please come back, Arlene, Tango and Ruby
If you come on here looking for some mind-blowing conversation or profound words of wisdom, well you've come to the wrong place and will be disappointed. I'm just an ordinary bod who likes to share my day with anyone who cares to listen. Tales of my dogs, my garden, my family and happenings in my life that I feel might just be amusing....If you're happy with that, draw up a chair, light up a ciggie if you wish or have a cup of tea and make yourself at home.

Me 'n' Ruby and of course Tango
It sounds like you had a wonderful Easter Sunday. It's lovely to be with family on Easter. It seems that This year everyone in my family is to busy or gone to different cities, and are to busy to invite me. oh, well.
ReplyDeleteOh dear Horst I am sorry that you appeared to spend Easter alone, how unkind of them not to consider you. I consider myself so fortunate with my wonderful family, If you lived closer, you could come over to me on our next family outing at mine in a couple of weeks, but i'll raise a glass to you. Thanks you for calling it means a lot, as I don't have many friends on blogger, but it's not the end of the world now, is it. People like you make up for it. Hugs to you
DeleteArlene, I can well remember trying to get a kite off the ground for my children!! There was plenty of wind but it just wouldn't work, we had such a a laugh too and we had no dogs with us, just a mum and dad and two grandads...glad you had a good Easter, we did too :) xx
ReplyDeleteHi Val, nice to see you, Simple pleasures can bring the most laughs can't they, If the weather is nice I'll take the cam corder when we take Tommy out with his new one. X
