Friday - so Vic came over for lunch again and seemed to enjoy himself. It rained (of course) but we had a trip down to the sea at Llangrannog on the way back to his flat. and yes - they were surfing! 

Tomorrow we will try to erect the Party Tent as a Chicken cover due to the restrictions now coming in regarding Poultry and ducks - the instructions have welded themselves shut and the company are looking for a copy but from the searches that they made I am not holding out a lot of hope n that score.
I think that it will be a case of experimentation - and yes I have looked at some youtube video of similar tents so we will probably manage.

Managed to get the Passport Office to finally accept our on line photographs - or rather accept mine as Susie's went through straight away. So another £160 but at least we will be able to fly when the restrictions are finally removed. No rush really - but they expire on December 20th so was better to renew while they were still in effect.

Fine looking fellow there !!

Ran out of hand sanitiser - so am glad that the wash was completed today and I have some Scottish Classic for tonight. Otherwise it could cost me a fortune! Talking of which I posted the Christmas cards and pressies today - £48 in postage costs!!! Still, when we consider what we are saving with free postage of incoming goods I suppose that it all balances.

In festive news..

Not quite as cold today - a little milder but we are keeping the wood burners high.

So with those few thoughts - 
Cheers !
