Hope you enjoyed that great video. After a big debate, H almost believes that the lyric is not, ‘Eye of the tyre’, don’t think she’ll ever be 100% convinced though. She absolutely loves this song – it featured in the final of the CBBC show ‘Who Let The Dogs Out?’. I think she fancies herself on it with one of the Westies, they are not so keen when she tries to get them to do the tricks.

Just cut a hole in the carpet, it’s coming up anyway. Floor sanding guy looks in disbelief then asks for a knife.Colour options – LHS no stain then 3 options. What would you choose?
If you’ve been wondering about how the flooring for the hall and the ‘middle’ aka dump room is coming on you can see for yourself, it’s still a work in progress. No decision made yet.
So, we’ve had Halloween and fireworks night so it is definitely time for hunkering down and making the place cosy and warm for winter. The clocks have changed, the temperature has dropped and we can look forward to the Festive season very soon.
These events in the rhythm of the year make my thoughts turn to my Dad. It is three years today since he died, one Saturday morning, without any warning. Before he died, I thought that people must have had some inclination that their loved one was not well or that they were at least ‘not themselves’ before they passed away. Sadly, I now know that it does happen, out of nowhere. Remember to enjoy the little things and moments when you are caught up in the whirl of life, they are so important and so easy to miss. Enough of my wise words now, my Dad always let you know what he thought whether you invited his wisdom or not, I miss that so much now he has gone.
This made me stop, stare, and take pictures, yesterday. The photo does not show the whole arch, it was too big to capture, what a shame, it was simply phenomenal.
there was a faint secondary rainbow there too, above this one, look closely on the left of the picture.
Rainbows have symbolic meanings in lots of religions and cultures, here are some interpretations, there are plenty more out there in cyberspace to consider. This rainbow helped me to remember that it is good to take a minute once in a while to appreciate the small things in life.
Halloween and my jolly gang of four loved going guising and entertaining the guisers visiting us. Teenboy was not interested in dressing up but still enjoyed the sweets his siblings and their pals returned home with. He did do a pumpkin though, in a kind of minimalist way, it’s the top one. Pumpkins are so much easier to do than the turnips we spent hours and hours hacking the centre out of when I was a girl. Hate to say this – but these pumpkins look so much better than the turnips ever did.
Off to the next house…
Picture quality is pretty poor but it captures the mood perfectly as we trooped up the lane last night.
I’m glad it’s Friday, have a great weekend, well done to KC, and here’s a wee song for you all. x
This song always grabs my attention when it comes on the radio, have a wee look at their other videos, especially Radio Ladio, F’s favourite. I think you’ll see why.
