Any good things to share?

Steph...I have an foot dirt cleaner out front made like an hedgehog, for boots, his hair is bristles to clean your shoes off.

Congraduations Sue!...Employment..what an nice word, "paycheck"....my thing with my feet already with an clinic, I've already bought my Dr. Scholl's type inplants...Yes, I've been "Gellin" for some time now..heehee...I can take them out and they go in other shoes easily also. Then I found an pair of tennis shoes with the "spring" and bounce built right into them.

This morning, I was clearing out, doing a sort of late in the year spring clean.  I draggedout stuff that were way back in the cupboard and have been for a long time.

Now, as I know I have a wasp's nest in the loft I am a bit jittery to say the least. So, after I came down stairs I realised I could feel something walking on the top of my head. Images of huge wasps stinging me to death went through my mind so I quickly brushed the top of my head rather frantically. It wasn't a wasp but a huge spider which flew through the air at the speed of light. It landed on my pc with a thud, it ran and fell off my keyboard onto the floor where it was very quickly pounced on and promptly eaten by Jessie.

I bet that spider wishes it had never got up this morning!

Awwww, I love spiders too, so it was rather sad (if a little funny)

I've noticed a lot of spiders about here this past month. I keep vaccuuming dead ones up, obviously the cats having a game or two of tennis with them! LOL!

Hey Cathy, how's it going hon?

We had a fabulous trip - it all went by too quickly.  In Ireland, we spent 3 days in my ancestral County Cavan and 3 days in County Meath looking at historical stuff just outside the Pale.  Then we flew over to Bournemouth and stayed in a holiday apartment outside Wimborne Minster in Dorset, near the villages of West Moors and Three Legged Cross.  The apartment was amazing and the people who owned it were the best.  They even invited us to a party last Saturday night.  We met Ron, Anna and Paul and had a wonderful C.S. Lewis tour in Oxford.  We put 1,100 miles on our rental car.  We drove to Bude in Cornwall one day and another day, Bath.  We had a lovely time in Hampshire with Paul visiting Beaulieu, Lymington and the New Forest.  And we went to Lulworth Cove, Swanage Beach, Corfe Castle, Christchurch beach and the beautiful village of Wimborne Minster.  We saw the grafitti left by Cromwell's soldiers on the sarcophogus of Henry VIII's grandparents in the minster and had Sunday roast in a 15th century thatched coaching house.  It was another dream vacation.  Pics to follow (eventually :-).

When I read the 3 things on your mind thread, I wept because I'm always suprised at how much we've all come to care about one another. This is the good thing we all share.
