Happy New Year to you All

Its less than 12 hours to the New Year, and I want to wish you all good luck and a very happy New Year. We had a phone call at 9am this morning to say that its extremely hot in Christchurch New Zealand, and my brother in law was sitting outside enjoying a drink and getting ready to see the New Year in, they are 13 hours ahead of us, Ive no doubt hes now sleeping of the merryments but I do wish we had some of that beautiful weather they are experiencing there, its 26 degrees there lucky thing.
Anyway it wont belong before the crocuses and daffodils will hopefully be showing their heads and we can perhaps look forward to a lovely summer, but I wont hold my breathe for to long as we have a habit of getting more of the white stuff in January dont we, anyway Happy New Year to you all, and thank you from the bottom of my heart for your loyal support and lovely comments.

I do hope you are all have a wonderful Christmas and enjoying being with your families.

Oh No Snow Again

Anyone want to go out for a drive? As you can see the road around our estate is pretty slippery, and as we live in a cul-de-sac we dont have a lot of through traffic and the road doesnt get cleared that often. Oh well it looks as though we are in for a White Christmas after all.

My Second Eldest Grandson - Thomas

Im so proud of my second eldest grandson Thomas whos 17, as yesterday he passed his driving test at his first attempt now to many thats quite a uneventful thing to happen, but for my grandson it was a wonderful achievement as all his life from the time he was born it has been a struggle. The reason for this is he suffers with Aspergers Syndrome and as you may or may not know it affects their motor skills and their being able to achieve many other things like being able to talk, write and generally make friends, they dont understand what you are talking about and dont reason very well, and also have to have help with their Schooling. Thomas was lucky and was statemented quite early so he got the help he required and the one to one teaching at School, now hes at College doing a Computer Studies course, hes extremely good at maths, though not so good at english, but hes doing well and hopes eventually to go onto University and who knows he might just do that with his determination and his mums great faith in his ability and I think thats whats bought Thomas this far. Good luck my love and Well Done you are my Star Im so very proud of you and your mum.

A Heron comes a calling

This morning my hubby looked out of our bedroom window and was a bit surprised to see a Heron standing on the roof of the house opposite, it then flew down to the end house and landed on the fence, you might be wondering why, well our neighbours have a fish pond in their garden and I think this cheeky Heron was hoping to help himself to some of the goldfish they have in it, but Ive a feeling he left empty handed as most of the ponds around here are frozen up, so I suspect he may have had to fly back down to the River Wye for better pickings.
