Rush, rush rush!

Sorry I haven't posted since the wedding! I will try and get it done later today!! Its chaos here, I'm diving round like an idiot! My friend with MS is in hospital for 10 days, so have to see to her dog and visit her! Took Tori for her interview at New College, Swindon, yesterday. Today, I am visiting H and her daughter M. Just playing catch up really! Pics and post later!

This is a pic of the Houdini Chicken!!! Its 'Big Bird' and boy has she done some digging!!! Shame she didn't weed at the same time!!

Warning

When I am an old woman I shall wear purple
With a red hat which doesn't go, and doesn't suit me.
And I shall spend my pension on brandy and summer gloves
And satin sandals, and say we've no money for butter.
I shall sit down on the pavement when I'm tired
And gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bells
And run my stick along the public railings
And make up for the sobriety of my youth.
I shall go out in my slippers in the rain
And pick the flowers in other people's gardens
And learn to spit.
You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fat
And eat three pounds of sausages at a go
Or only bread and pickle for a week
And hoard pens and pencils and beermats and things in boxes.
But now we must have clothes that keep us dry
And pay our rent and not swear in the street
And set a good example for the children.
We must have friends to dinner and read the papers.
But maybe I ought to practice a little now?
So people who know me are not too shocked and surprised
When suddenly I am old, and start to wear purple.
