Good Morning Early Birds!

[waterboatman]

Sunday. It's quite warm this morning, compared to the last few days. Fine by me!

I have no plans for today, but I'm sure something will occur. Not worth doing too much housework as the wee men will be tromping all over the place tomorrow...if they turn up that is!

Have a happy day everyone.

[waterboatman]

It's my good fortune minty. :o}

Morning danny. All well mate?

[waterboatman]

Very remiss of me, I forgot to give the final total of the hospice art auction. We beat last year's total of £25.000. We raised just under £30.000. A great result.

[dannyk13]

All well Boaty.

[waterboatman]

Wonderful. Any plans for the day mate?

[dannyk13]

Usual Sunday Boaty, lots of crosswords and chill out,

gift wrapping and a letter to write for friend...see what the weather is like may go out for a while..

[waterboatman]

It depends what the weather does. It would be nice to get out for a while.

[murraymints]

great result re the auction boaty..that's a lot of dosh !

[waterboatman]

It is indeed. We are very happy with it. The next step is to see if we can beat that next year. I'm going to put one in next year. :o} Wee sis is going to do one as well. There was a doodle by baby spice that did well.

Wotcher. I've been up since 3 and a bit - my sleep pattern is sub-optimal to say the least.

Anyway, I've browned the leg of lamb, given the roasties their first cooking and made the cauliflower purée. All other veg was prepped yesterday.

I'll go back to slumberland shortly and hopefully I'll drop back off.

How is everyone xxx

[murraymints]

[waterboatman]

Some of ours were done by patients, a couple by staff and several by famous people. Peter Kay did one, Miranda Hart, Matt Lucus, Adam Henson, to name but a few.
