Friday!

Is it me or do you lose track of the days over Christmas? Could have sworn that today was Saturday when I woke up. Trouble arising between America and iran, headlines of the news today, hope that doesn't cause another war situation. 
Heatwaves in Australia still very bad with bush fires out of control in Sydney and new South Wales. Temps of 40 degrees there Phew, don't think we coulod manage that here.Wonder if it is to do with climate change after all.
We are fortunately quite cool here sun is shining today but a cold atmosphere.  We willmake do with our coal fires thankyou. Vinput a log on the fire last night and I was watching it burn up and flame and you could see why the fires take hold and houses go up loke  tinder boxes.  Something to be said for the English weather after all. 
Went off to podiatary yesterday afternoon, and came home inthedark, it gets dark so early these days. Nice to see some of the lights onpeoples houses though.  Got my toe padded up again and foot put into the open sandals once more for the timebeing.  Feels like I amwalking on a stilt onone side, Theright foot is flat and the left isup onthe sole.very odd.
Little Jessie was on her blanket when we left and still there when we returned, hadn't moved i don't think, funny little cat. She came upstairs last night jumped on the bed climbed up on top of Vin and sat there for a while so he could stroke her. then all og a sudden she jumps off and goes downstairs to her blanket again I suppose. Gosh she does love him. !

She likes her fire though and often lies in front of it with her face on the wooden fender. looks lovely.
