SOGGY.. MORNING NOON & NIGHT..

We awoke to briliant sunlight! Yippee! That make a change to what we've experienced for the past few days. Yesterday she had to meet Dan, the locksmith, really early so threw herself out of the house at some ungodly hour.

It was cold and very grey.. brrr.. she hurry-scurried very fast along to Chelsea Manor Street where they agreed to meet. However, there was no Dan in sight, so she called him just as she was crossing a side road and said "Where are you Dan?" and he responded "Just about to run you over!" His was the car that had stopped to let her cross the road!

Phew.. at what a pace she had walked. She ambled back thinking 'well, that must have given my body a shock to have walked that far at so fast a pace!'

Back home for boiled eggs, toast and tea.. for both of us. Slurpy food, how delicious. Then she slid her hand round and whilst I was happily perched on her knee, the witch got hold of my feet and holding on to them with one hand, she spray-soaked me with water.. ugh.. it has this new anti-pluck stuff in it and she says it is helping.. huh.

She redressed in warmer clothes or rather, put on more layers, whistled up WW and at noon they left for Borough Market to meet Debbie for Malaysian dumplings and noodles. Upon arrival, they greeted each other and she saw the charming picture of a goaty person on the front of the latest Borough Market newspaper.. issue 25.

There are a few photos with the article, the most charming being of Joe and Vivienne, she is snuggled up to him with her head tucked into the back of his. Inside was an article about how Debbie and David started their herd of goats. At the end of the article was a list of questions and answers from Debbie.

Number 5: Guilty pleasure? "Fermented Polish Salad. Stand in the kitchen and eat it with a large spoon, straight from the tub. Dorsn't even make it onto a plate". You know it by its' other name.. IshPol.That made my mama laugh and happy that her gifts of IshPol are appreciated but not surprised as it is truly, the most remarkably, addictive stuff.

Joe and Rosie suddenly appeared! Him looking like a dog with ten tails just let out of a kennel and her looking a bit stunned, as well you might if your beloved suddenly gets taken a 'bit' unwell!

Selina, of Malaysian dumpling fame, is away! Huh.. in Malaysia attending a huge family wedding, her husband showed her a photo of her in KL.. Kuala Lumpur.. having a happy time with her family. Lucky Selina, like lucky Michele, both of them are missing this grotty cold snap.

It may be bright and sunny this morning but it ain't half parky mum.. even I didn't object when she turned the heating back on all day yesterday and 'they'.. aka the weather people.. say that heavy rain is due in later today and tomorrow.. great.. just what we need.. for London has a busy day tomorrow. And they say, there's even a possibility of snow!

Anyway, the dumpling and noodles were delicious, with chicken for her and vegetarian for Debbie. She came home in rain.. chilly-billy cold rain and she was so cold and tired, that she fed me, ate a raw beetroot with a cup of LapySand and we clambered into bed at an early hour.

She read various papers and emails, I dozed on her head, then the 'witch' appeared and she soaked me again with water and put me into my night house, so we were both in bed with the light out at nine o'clock, to be woken up by bright sunnylight and her remembering 'Blast and double drat GeeGee, I forgot to put my drops in last night'.

'Must not do that, I must remember to put them both in, no matter how late I do it' she said as she put this mornings drops in.

Pardon me folks, I've got to go as first YumYum of the day has just appeared on a saucer, so I'd better hop off and do it justice. She has to return a big box to Ainsworths and get eggs and vegetables. It'll be a bit up the spout tomorrow traffic wise with diversions as Westminster Bridge and several roads will be closed.. yes, folks.. for tomorrow is the London Marathon Day!

So.. please pray it doesn't snow!

GeeGee Parrot.
