Today is April 10th and two days ago she planted another couple of seed trays. One being a box of French Beans, we eat lots of green beans and I don't want to hear any of your rude jokes about beans being musical fruit.
Whilst pouring in water to the base tray.. aka cat litter box.. she was amazed to see that four of the bean seeds have already germinated and cracked their skins! That, folks, is very quick.
She went to Singing With Dementia without me.. sob.. it was because it was hot today and she had to do some fiddling about in Peter Jones and I'd have been in my travel cage in the basket for too long, so I stayed home and did more work on my tumtum feathers.
Which look simply ghastly now.. maybe, that's the real reason I was not taken? Huh.. Never mind, who wants to be carried around in a bag for an hour, not me, that's for sure!
Afterwards she caught a Victoria bound train from Streatham Hill and got off the train at Clapham Junction, exited the station onto Lavender Hill, crossed the busy road and went to a tiny hole in the wall shop run by Raoul, he sells everything to do with mobile phones and does repairs etc.
His stock is 'kosher'.. aka the proper stuff.. and she wanted a 8GB memory card and an adaptor.. cost elsewhere £15.00.. from Raoul a tenner. Then she got onto a bus and came home again, home again, jiggedy-jig.
She told me what they had sung and eaten.. and that she had not won anything because she didn't get a full house at Bingo.. it's amazing how competive they are and how funny they were at her table.. and they're supposed to be grown-ups?
But.. hey.. you can't be serious all the time, can you? Which leads me right up to a selection of very funny things that a darling friend has just sent her from Austria.. sit back folks and be prepared to giggle or laugh, for we are going to tell you two of them, there are more but she's going to ration you to two a day!
Are you sitting comfortably? Here's the first one..
A man bought a new fridge for his house.
To get rid of his old one that still worked, he put outside his house and stuck a note on it saying.
"FREE TO A GOOD HOME.. IF YOU WANT IT.. PLEASE TAKE IT.. IT WORKS WELL".
For 3 days the fridge just sat there without anyone looking at it twice.
He eventually decided that people were too mistrustful of this great deal.
And changed the note to read..
"FRIDGE FOR SALE.. £50"
It was stolen within the hour..
They walk among us!
Next up..
A man was driving when he saw the flash of a traffic camera.
He figured that his picture had been taken for exceeding the limit even though he knew he was not speeding..
Just to be sure, he went around the block and passed the same spot but again, the camera flashed.
Now he began to think this was quite funny, so he drove even slower as he passed the area again but the camera flashed again.
He did this a fifth time and was now laughing as he rolled past, at a snail's pace.
Two weeks later, he got five tickets for driving without a seat belt..
You can't fix stupid..
And on that cheerful note.. We're off to eat scrummy yumyum and she'll be drinking something that would have two friends a'begging.
Now we know that Granny Jo wants to live in the YumYum HQ and she and, I bet, Debbie Goaty Mum wouldn't say no to the odd night locked inside Bartek with all their scrummy Spring and Summer Salads etc.. but she didn't know about their Polish Beetroot juice which Kasha gave to her last Tuesday.
OH.. MY.. GOODNESS! Her eyes rolled about in her head as if she'd gone on a 'Granny Takes a Trip'.. it's beet with added apple, carrot and HAMBURG parsley juice. It comes in a litre box.. she'll buy probably five at a time in order to last the week. It's fabulous!
No, I really am off.. Chocks away.. Zoom-a-Zoom.. EFT YumYum HQ.. less than two seconds.
GeeGee Parrot.
