Friday Fun Day with Smiles.

      Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.
Most of the time over the last couple of weeks has been taken up with work on the car that is the MGB.

Husbands can be quite useful at times! though actually I think he enjoys it, you have to keep your hand in with stuff like this. 
It's actually getting more difficult to find mechanics who know how to work on cars this age and welders too.


Hubby says it's the 25 year service (we've had the car for about 46 years) and he is very good at keeping an eye on it and decided there are things that should be replaced so we had a visit to MGB Hive to get the replacement parts and I came back with a couple of gifts too, they are nice people who love MGs.

It's a bit sad though as they have many MGBs sat around in the yard that have been left to rust away.


Someone loved these at some time and now they look like this!


I am just thankful that there are still plenty of these that are cared for which is why this company are still doing so well.


I do not intend to let this happen to my girl.


In the park this week the cygnets are doing well.


And these beautiful flowers despite the  dry weather.


More  Damsons than we've ever had before.
This is the second large bowl full and lots more to come.

Thought I'd finish with some car funnies:
Just a warning, none of this is adviseable.


I think not!


I don't think she will be very happy but they mean well.


And I hope my car never ends up like this though the MGB Hive have plenty they could turn into chicken runs.


Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.

And if you would like some more smiles you just need to pop over to see what our other friends have been doing this week at Annie's for
"This Week's Smiles" and you can also share your  smiles too.

Friday Fun Day with Smiles.

           Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.......which isn't much!

Apart from walking the dogs and doing the grocery shopping (yes I still do my own, no on-line ordering here!). 
However, I do think that I'm over the cold more or less so decided to tidy my desk which some of you will know it has suffered greatly during my weeks of sniffles.

It looked like this on Wednesday:


which I know some of you will have seen already.


And even worse on Thursday when I decided I'd had enough of not being able to find stuff and cleared the boxes which made things much worse!


But I'm all smiles now, look at this gorgeous tidy desk all ready to start the new project.


Earlier in the week we got a new microwave. I'll get there soon so that I know how it works as it's different from my old one. Sorry about the shadow.


Daisy in her comfy place.


I know Schnauzers are intelligent but this is taking it too far!


My friend who lives in France sent me this photo.
This is Flaine and I'm pleased we're not skiing there, these people are waiting to get a lifts up to the mountain.


She sent me this pic too, now that I do fancy.


Snow drops in the garden looking pretty.


And the swan family in the park doing well too.

Happy Valentine's Day and wishing you a great weekend.
 Thanks for stopping by.

Friday fun day

           Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.

Which doesn't seem to be very much other than some washing. Trying to catch up with a few jobs now I'm starting to feel a bit more like myself.


Don't think I showed you this but it's still there right now. Guess the maker is working on the next one, could it be Valentine or Easter? we'll have to wait and see.


Been walking in the park and the swan babies are doing well. They were having some flying practice this week.


Back from the park Daisy and Alfie drying off...little s cruffs!

If you weren't here on Wednesday I have been doing some felting.


Joined in with the Sophie Wheatley free classes.

I don't know wherfe the time goes but it's hairdressers again today so might be a bit late getting round.

A few funnies then I'd better be off.





Have a great weekend everyone and

Friday Fun Day with Smiles.

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.
It's a quick show today as the internet went down just when I was trying to do this yesterday but guess that's life as they say!


Yes I know this is a thistle but I like the flowers so I left it to grow.


It's very prickly but sweet all the same.


Yet more plants that have arrived from I don't know where but they are lovely too.


The garden is so pretty at this time of the year.



So much for building houses here. After clearing the ground it looks like this.


Nice wild flowers though.


And the park.


we now have a path again which is nice.


All the work stuff is disappearing.


The Cygnets are growing really fast.

Because I'm late getting this post finished there are no dog funnies today but you might like to make up your own caption for this.


I actually took this photo in the park this morning while walking the dogs and it's so lovely and the ladies were so willing to let me take it.
It may be obvious that it's raining here today!


Some of you may know what this is all about and if you don't I'll show you the results next week.

I'm off to the Craft Club tomorrow and can't wait.

Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.

Friday Fun Day.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.

We saw this at the garden centre and might just have to try it myself Lol!
 
How brilliant is this!

 
Love it!


 
Walking along part of the Viking Way Thursday, what a view.

 
And stopped off at the public Orchard, it's big!


I have some sad news that the swans have lost one of their cygnets so not really good for a fun day I'm afraid but wanted to share this with you.

 
The baby was taken by one of the Pikes in the lake. It seems almost unbelievable but some of the ladies who walk their dogs were there when it happened.
Lets hope this baby remains safe.


 
Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.
