Not sure they come up here, will have to check. We do have jets coming over to go to Otterburn, I haven't seen them yet, but have heard them. Sorry you have had a cold but glad you are better. I haven't found any car boot sales yet, will have to check that out too, you certainly get some bargains.

We can look over the Bay from upstairs in our house (if we stand on the upstairs lavatory seat and lean out of the skylight!) and see their aerobatics, it's an amazing sight. Of course, this past year has also seen our Bay as a parking place for cruise liners, and that has added interest in itelf. But you were lucky to be in the right place at the right time.<br />Any idea what has happened to blogger Sadie, whose blog I used to enjoy? <br />Your stash of books looks good. Right now I'm reading through the forensic genealogy crime novels by Nathan Dylan Goodwin, and really enjoying them. <br />all good wishes from a very busy Torbay, so we're doing our best to keep away from all the holidaymakers for obvious reasons.<br />Margaret P<br />www.margaretpowling.com galanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14190356279359463949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787951981229151015.post-21691202422911437422021-08-29T07:48:31.396+01:002021-08-29T07:48:31.396+01:00That was very lucky.

Today (Saturday) it is 70 degrees and the acorns are falling. It is great to work outside in the cool. I got the John Deere out and mowed all the lawns.

Thankfully we are supposed to get rain (storms) tonight (Sat) thru Tues. The dryland corn is drying too quickly but the soybeans are hanging on. I doubt the soybeans will weight much but at least we have a crop.<br />We are busy this weekend with a Farm Landlord's auction (he passed away and she moved to a retirement village.) We watched our local collage's first American Football game of the year. Tonight we may go out for dinner. Tomorrow we are going to the State Fair (I don't know the English equivalent) to watch some friends show their sheep & goats. And then it will be Monday and a new workweek again.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02633912756265339462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787951981229151015.post-59137780055106880902021-08-28T22:50:38.677+01:002021-08-28T22:50:38.677+01:00A lovely rose - what’s its name, do you know?

Because last winter the country was in lockdown, this winter the little children have been decimated by a respiratory bug, filling hospitals in an alarming way. Turns out that they hadn’t developed immunity because last year they weren’t exposed to it … sigh…. if it’s not one thing, it’s another!

I always think summer colds are much worse than winter ones. We managed to avoid catching it from Tam. At least your immune system has been boosted from having the cold you caught. (Grandchildren?!)<br /><br />Enjoy any car boots this weekend - we're doing one tomorrow, and then it's Malvern on Monday. <br /><br />Meanwhile, I have some tidying to do in the garden and holes to dig for the two Japanese Anemones I bought at Aldi today (only £3.99 each). They were just what I was looking for but I had no intention of paying 3 times as much at the Garden Centre.Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787951981229151015.post-17381138062200370352021-08-28T09:42:16.822+01:002021-08-28T09:42:16.822+01:00We are hoping to catch sight of the Red Arrows her...We are hoping to catch sight of the Red Arrows here this afternoon.
