A good day today.


Had a really good day so far today.

Our great grandson ,Phoenix has been over for the best part of the day,so we really have had a day filled with fun and laughter.

This makes a change as my husband and I dont get many visitors ,and its great to have some company.

Our daughter popped in later,so had a good old natter to her.

Phee took my sock monkey home ,dont know how long he will last in the company of a boistorous 5 year old though,hope my hand stitching holds out to all that throwing around by his tail.
