Sounds lovely TW, somewhere to go away from the hustle and bustle of life.

Well done Amanda.

Well done Amanda, it's not easy taking the corporate giants on sometimes, but to get that much off, brilliant!

Well, on Monday I decided to take a walk along the nearby river. I have lived in this area for five years now, but with the arthritis and so on , I've only really been able to do any real walking since my hip replacement 2 1/2 years ago.

I discovered a beautiful natural area which is protected as a site of special scientific interest, and though you can hear the main road nearby, you can also hear birds singing, bees humming and the breeze in the trees above it. And this is in a city! There are wild flowers, a river, trees, water meadows and a woodland. A proper haven in there.

I've just been down there again, taking the long way to the newsagent, and walked and walked. More people there today, people fishing, cycling and dog walking, but it was still lovely.

I have been doing battle with E.on about a gas bill for months now. This week I finally triumphed and they have knocked off £125 . The little person verses big business and I didn't let them bully me into submission .

I'm chuffed to say the least : ))

Lol SueM, I am sure it looks great Rach. Come on BC there MUST be something. That was lovely carol

I have two, greedy aren't I.
Had lunch with the lovely Daff
And Had my second oldest Grandson visit and cook us a meal for the first time ever.

I bought my granddaughter a new bed, she came here on Thursday for 3 weeks. I take her for a walk each day, she hasn't cried for Mum and Dad. She loves to be brushed and ..........
























wags her tail all the time....lol

Hmmmm that is proving more difficult than I thought, Ann! Hasn't been a good week but I am sure I will come up with something:-) BC XX

One good, exciting, pleasant, unusual thing that has happened to you in the past week.
