Saturday's Funnies



Dear Family and Friends, Today we had some relief from the heat. It was cloudy with an easterly breeze. The promenade was positively delicious! Again, this was the second day that I was not allowed to exert myself – as if I needed any prompting! So I spent some time editing my biography, now up to 86 pages. Now I am putting together the blog, which it is very much hoped will offer a smidgin of fun for you all!

Your Weekend Funnies



Dear Family and Friends, It was hot again. I am obeying the rules and not doing anything strenuous today. I am allowed to do some work tomorrow. So I was sitting indoors in the cool, fiddling with my computer and watching TV. Now I have ventured down to the nether regions of the Internet to gather another crop of fun stuff for your entertainment. I do hope that they're up to snuff!

Thursday's Funnies



Dear Family and Friends, After the procedure yesterday, now that the anaesthetic has worn off, I am just a tad wilted today. I therefore stayed indoors. and did as little as possible. I had been warned not to do anything strenuous for a couple of days. Say no more! It doesn't prevent me, however, from going into cyberspace on your behalf to gather together sufficient material to create tonight's blog. Please enjoy!

























The Royal Marines Orchestra is fantastic!











Sorry! Couldn't resist!













Giant stamp!















I think that's an Aquacar!

Clever leaf art!
