Me too...can't stand chewy bacon even though its supposed to be more nutritious chewy.Add me to the well done bacon! I’m sure I could eat an entire package by myself!

I am so sorry. It seems to be never-ending. Definitely take care of yourself.This day has ended badly. I just got word that my old friend from Florida has lost his battle with Covid.

Well that doesn't sound good. I'll have to try some British bacon.I don`t know what you would think of proper British bacon from a producer not a grocery store. Very different from American, and if you have it too crispy it dries up like shoe leather.....usually has a good rind of fat which we usually cut off anyway, but cooked correctly, it`s gorgeous!!

Will you purchase a permanent site for the caravan, or just tow it around and buy permits as needed?Oh rotten luck I hope you rest and improve very quickly x
Bobbie any walking is good for you. Just take it slowly and you’ll gradually build up your distance. Sounds like you’re doing well.
Lynne glad you’re all ok and no immediate issues with the weather.
We've had a free day since school drop off. Children away this weekend so no need to collect from school. We drove into Derbyshire and the Peak District National Park. We have had a caravan (mobile home) on order for months but the backlog of holiday homes is unprecedented. So we went to look at a few forest and lakeside sites just to give us an idea of places nearby and try to keep up the anticipation of it ever arriving! We walked Louie at a reservoir and he was disappointed not to be allowed in the water but it was very windy.
Kev was very impressed that within 20 minutes of getting home he was presented with ribeye steak, garlic mushrooms and broccoli. Love a quick meal.
So a quiet evening planned and clearing some recordings off the planner.
I'm very sorry for your loss Charade.This day has ended badly. I just got word that my old friend from Florida has lost his battle with Covid.
Never understood the hate for black cats. Anyone who can abuse an animal is a horrible human!!Charade, I’m so sorry to hear of your friend passing. Hugs. It is never easy, no matter how a friend you know is gone. Sympathy to you, friend’s family and friends.
As an early bird, I’m close to bed time. Older one comes home in another 1/2 hour or so. Little one decided pizza dinner night, so we have some left for him, as I know he’s expecting to have something to eat. Will be easy to heat it up for him when I think he’s closer to home.
Yeah, I’m glad people care for black cats. Because of Halloween, they are abused and are usually not wanted, as many think they are evil. Which is really sad, as all cats![]()
are good pets.
Have a good night sleep all.
Chinese takeout on Kyle sounds like a fantastic Saturday eve. Such a great son you have there!!I don`t know what you would think of proper British bacon from a producer not a grocery store. Very different from American, and if you have it too crispy it dries up like shoe leather.....usually has a good rind of fat which we usually cut off anyway, but cooked correctly, it`s gorgeous!!
Charade, I am so sorry to hear your news. It`s never easy to hear of a friend`s death and covid seems to be so prevalent as a reason now. But, hope you feel better soon and the cough eases quickly. It`s a horrible cough to get. I remember right back at the beginning I had it, then a few days later lost all taste and smell for around 10 days. Nasty. Continued good wishes to you.
Dull but very mild day today, same all over it seems. But, this coming week is supposed to be beautiful and we`ll see some sunshine too which will be lovely, it`s been very grey this last week.
Out early for our walk and some friends joined us, shorter one today of 6 miles but it was very humid and only a slight breeze. And fairly quiet too for a Saturday, it was early though.
Plans today are catch up with some friends by phone and Facetime, laundry, watch the Zandvoort F1 qualifying this afternoon, and then dinner tonight is take out Chinese, courtesy of our son....looking forward to that.
Also have a lot of birthdays, anniversaries and one wedding this month, need to make sure I have all the cards and gifts I need......I think I may have still to get one or two.
Lunch soon......bacon and a sunny side up egg in a roll......and big mug of tea.

Take care of yourself....Good morning. Thank you for your condolences for my friend. He is the first person who I have known personally to lose their life from Covid.
I am doing okay. The cough is almost gone, but has been replaced with sneezing and a stuffy nose. The worst part is that I haven't had a decent night's sleep in several days. The first few nights the cough kept me up. I don't know what's bothering me now. I will sleep for an hour or two, wake up and be awake for awhile, doze back off again, repeat cycle. I spent most of yesterday in my recliner in front of the TV. Will probably do the same today.
Always more fun to exercise with friends!!!Oh Charade, sending mummy dust well wishes you will be feeling better soon. And try to get more sleep today. Naps during the day are very good for you, as sleep always helps the healing.
Aw Julie, Louie being an early rising dog, and now having his dog nap. I guess I was lucky, my dogs never got up until one of us did. Guess he needed to check out what was going on in the early hours. Hope you enjoyed some tea or coffee after your early outing with Louie. And yay, to have tree worker feeling better and coming this week. Hehe, we usually don’t refer to our tree guys as surgeons.
Schumi, hope the F1 race is good to watch this afternoon. Dull weather is not us.
Good Morning Metro. Hope your weekend is fabulous.
Ah yes, nothing like a friend to wake little one up, ah discovered yoga with friends.
59 degrees and sunny. Yay! Starting to feel like Fall.
Saturday homies, a stupendous one, yes, have at it.

Went out for fish with friends last night. Had the most delicious appetizer. Calamari steak! It was so different than the normal fried calamari, and wayyyyy better!
I had shrimp and crab, DH had walleye, friend had walleye, and other friend had cod. We were all stuffed and pleased!
Early evening will be a party with different friends. It's mainly outside, with a bonfire. Those are always a welcome into the fall season! Think I will finally pull out a pair of jeans to wear. It will get cooler this evening when the sun sets.
DD may stop home tomorrow!! I think she needs to do laundry and and get some groceries, lol! I don't mind.....I'll take whatever time I can get
No big plans for Sun/Mon yet. DH's grandma is breathing very shallow at this point, so the end is drawing near. I think we will go by DH parents house to lend a bit of emotional support. DHs dad is struggling a bit, since he sees her almost daily....
Have a relaxing Labor Day weekend, whatever your plans may be!
Thanks Lynne...yours too!Good Morning Metro. Hope your weekend is fabulous.
Hi...yes...I got the AP shirt the other night and the fabric is very soft yet sturdy. I haven't heard anything about a water situation in the Orlando area.Metro did you get your HHN AP shirt and if so is it light weight cotton. A lot of the shirts have the heavy cotton blend and are pretty hot to wear in the heat. How’s the water situation in your area of Orlando? I know they were asking people to conserve water do to liquid oxygen shortage issues.
