Had mine a couple of weeks ago - and spent it. I thought there were supposed to be countless millions of them sloshing around, but you seldom, if ever, see one in your change

You have to actually spend money before you get change. Just saying. .....

How was your respite care by the way?

I was going to do a little report but I still can't quite make up my mind about it. There were good points and not so good points but it certainly makes you appreciate the value and quality of cruise ships. We were out from 10 to 5 on both the Saturday and Sunday so it is probably not a fair assessment of what goes on there during the day.

For a change we're having plenty of sunshine, sometimes windy as well but not to much at the moment :)

Knackered ! Still trying to catch up with the digging and, with all this dry weather, it's like chipping away at concrete - can't even get a fork into it in places

Found a bunny at the allotment on Saturday - gave up the unequal struggle and threw himself into a water butt.

One down......

Speaking of that, did you see that item by John Craven in this week's Countryfile? The natural burial ground he visited is the final home of my brother-in-law and father-in-law
