Moving house is never fun,moving house following and unexpected eviction is even less fun but I shall try blogging here until i get my iMac back and can start blogging in iLife . Yesterday was my birthday ,it started badly as I opened 2 dvds in which I have absolutely no intrest got better when I opened the new Arctic monkeys cd ( very good the three people in the uk who haven't rushed out to buy it should do so forthwith if not sooner ) My son made me a fabulous nutcracker in Design technology I never knew he had it in him. if I work out how to put photos up then we'll all die of shock.Basil was all up to speed with his injections as of saturday so he went to the groomers on saturday which wore him out he came back looking somwhat like an albino baboon but hid personality is sill fabulous.We have been out walking every day he is a brave little soldier he walked through a herd of sheep who were giving him the eye up on the moors on sunday. He was a trifle phased by the grouse who have a weird mating call starting as a clucking them a peeping and ending up like they are shouting "fight fight fight" like kids in the school playground. The temp hasn; got above freezing this week so far the trees look very pretty like I imagine th trees looked in grey squirrel goes skating by alison Uttley which was my favourite book when I was 6, Hare squirrel and hedgehog go skating and the rats come in and party in grey squirrels house and poor hare got chilblanes it was all very exciting ,anyway lets see if this works now

Well, as I lef an breef, if it isn't Mary Poppins!

You're lookin' tip top, ol' flapper. I'm at the office and I shan't be able to query it until later (shockingly, it's still 2-01-6 here...) but do you know off hand if after you've set up an iLife blog, you can access it from a windows machine? Just curious... And I'll probably figure it out in a bit, so don't grind yer enamel off thinking about it.

Ever so glad you've made the list, eh, what?

My goodness, this blog looks tasteful & refined, if not positively posh.

Welcome back, Alex! thought for awhile you'd gone Luddite on us...

Am v impressed with newer more classsier blog. Read your profile but I still haven't read Billy Liar. When I walk my daughter to nursery in the mornings, I always pass the time of day with Laurie Lees niece who is always out walking her dog. She is v nice lady.

Well, I call it a dog. It's a Yorkshire Terrier thing. Miss Elizabeth has been at nursery since November as she is now two and a half :oD How quickly time goes when you are mopping up babysick, boogers, piss and poop.
