Back from the docs and have to go again on Thursday. She stuck pins in me today!!! I hope this does the trick and she gave me tablets for paracetamol instead of these capsuals which get stuck in my throat. |

Of course I meant 'The BARD of Bedworth', I'm hardly Brad Pitt!!! The spell check didn't pick that one up or else it was flattering me LOL. |

Good morning all. Just thought I'd pay a surprise visit and say hello with a brief update. Last weekend Carmel and I celebrated our 44th anniversary, nothing too fussy but we did attend the church where we were married here, Bedworth UR 'Old Meeting' church and were duly mentioned in dispatches and generally made a fuss of coming away with a floral display nobbled from the Harvest Festival display. On Friday afternoons we attend the 'Welcome Space, there in the church hall adjoining and over last winter made lots of new friends. They love my poems there and have nicknamed me 'The Brad of Bedworth', as I have done a lot of local poems. So far since January 2021 I have penned about 85 poem's and about 35 short stories, most of which I post on my Facebook site. I have just self published my third booklet of poem's, this one in conjunction with my artist pal, who was also my Best Man at our wedding. John and I have financed it and all the proceeds are going to the building fund at the church as my way of giving something back for all the welcomes we have had over the years. We plod on in our senior years, I'm 88 now and Carmel is 91 and we still manage to draw beath each morning. Carmel has little mobility these days and a lot of health problems but on the bright side, none are life threatening. Well, have bored you all I shall now go and rustle up some breakfast and enjoy some sunshine while it lasts. Best wishes to each and everyone, those who know me from old and those who don't. Hope you get your post off OK Mel. |

Good morning all, a very dull one at the moment but I know we are expecting rain. It is supposed to be this morning clearing about 1pm in Tewkesbury which is where I am going. Lunch first the at 2pm a guided walk through the alleyways of Tewkesbury. there are a lot of small alleys in the town with histories. |

Mandy yes winter pansies, just 6 for one large tub. But I also planted two crysanths in large pots, one rust and one yellow and an Autumn fern, if there is not too hard a frost they should all last a couple of months. I checked the pots on the gravel and they are all doing ok at the moment. |

I suppose the ornamental ones would only be of use to flower arrangers etc. I used to love corn on the cob dripping with butter but these days my teeth can't tackle them Still like sweetcorn though. It is the only veg my daughter doesn't like. |

Ann, nooo... it was intended as a big smile to each of you. I'll desist from using them if they are taken the wrong way. The corn cobs will be yellow but 'ornamental' cobs can be grown which are multi coloured - I prefer to grow ones that are edible. |
