Meet "Biscuit"...


The owners of the property next door which is now totally empty were there this morning. She was titivating the front garden up somewhat, with some begonias etc. She spent about an hour or so on it and made a real difference. Vinsaid it loks really nice now. He went down as usual to get the Saturday papers so had a chat with her. She said that the lady who took him was very pleased with him, and he was settling down nicely. She has called him "Biscuit" which is quite nice i think, I wonder if it is something to do with gingernut biscuits? She is going to send a photo of him next week which will be nice. We were both thrilled with that news.

I hope you have a lovely sunny spot to lie in little Biscuit.

We also got a lovely card from our neighbour who has moved to a flat in Southport, and it seems she is settling in too. The Yankee candle we gave her is now in her bathroom, and she is finally box free she says.
What a trooper that woman is. It was lovely to see her children helping her the last couple of weeks, and her sister, husband and son all the way from Chichester helping her move last weekend. They were lovely neighbours, we wiill miss them.
Lo and behold at about lunchtime a woman, an older woman and two children were looking round next door, maybe tenants of the future. We shall have to wait and see.
Beautiful day here today, cloudy to start with then turning sunny. Should be lovely for the concert tonight. We will have a Jazz accompaniment to our meal tonight i think. Saw bald heads going over the top of our back door this morning, really funny, felt like throwing something at it, like on a fairground stall.
Smells like they are firing up the barbecue, you know the petroly smell when it is first lit up..horrible, at least it is still nice for them.
Tonight we are having:
Chinese..either goujons or dippers
sauce

I'm so glad that Biscuit has a new owner and what a relief for Vin to know that he is settled somewhere and how kind of the new owner to send a photo!! look forward to seeing that..
I hope you enjoy the concert this evening - I see that Proms 2011 has been advertised on the TV and will be starting next Friday, look forward to seeing that. Judyx
