I think I must be a bit twisted, because you had me laughing at the get go with the news that you haven't been reading anything funny because of your lungs. I know this shouldn't make me laugh (and I really am so sorry you have been poorly) but it did. I'm bad.
I love the tip about the pot marigolds. We had to resort to the RSPB cat scarer - which I have to say also works a treat. What is it with cats needing to poo in any garden but their own.?
Loved the leg of lamb story and the BF's drunk boyfriend definitely counts! You made me laugh. Good news - my lungs are fighting fit. Wishing you 100% recovery ASAP. Thanks for the lovely mentions - very kind of you. A🙏💚💖
