Pleasent day

that is a very up-market flooring your tiny has now ~ no wonder he is taking your banana ~ he has certainly gone up in the world!!
i call that a play palace not a station!!!

Thankyou stickie I havent give Tiny the new rent yet. Take care Tony

he might need to stay elsewhere while he saves up, im sure libet or i could help him out.

ok stickie has he given you the eye as well? Little devil. Enjoy Tony

better watch out for my bananas ~ or was it a bandana??

Has that little yellow peril been giving everyone the glad eye!! Maybe he's trying to coy everyone to come into the house to see his magnificent new floor on his play palace! Your good lady wife has it shining like a dance floor, Tony, and your mitring skills really are to be envied, those joints are immaculate! I hope Capt'n Tiny appreciates it!
If Tiny can't manage the rent, Sticki and I will take him week about until he saves up enough, would you like paid in fig bars or banananananas! I never know when to stop spelling banananananas!

Tiny, I hope you're feeling better soon from that horrible moulting business, I know you think you look terrible, but really, it only lasts for a little while, and then in no time, you'll grow fab new feathers, and look all glamorous again! Then maybe you'll have more of a chance with that gnomey little rascal, Pinky!!

what do they say ~ new suit, new job new baby??
so tiny has ~ new feathers, new floor, ~ ~ new baby???

New egg, new chick, new egg...which came first?!

i think chick.

Elizabeth New egg New pan New omelet thats Tinys biography. Take care enjoy Tony

Stickie Good thinking chuck. Tony

and chips chuck??

Stickie I just ate the chip you chucked but the jam fell off. Pardon me Rose. Tony

the jam fell off?????????????
it cant be any that rose made.

Stickie don,t underestimate Roses chips. They are the latest anti jam adhesive formula. Honest Stickie Rose said they were a chip off the old block. Tony

is rose making any more of these chips?

Sorry Tony is unavailable due to a unknown morsel of food creating a vicelike grip on his tonsils. He is otherwise restricted from movement by his unusual jacket. Doctor Doolittle.

Lol! Lol! Very funny Tony! Budgie and chips just doesn't have the same ring to it! Does Val know you ate Sticki's chip? Calorie control and all that? At least the jam fell off, that saved a few calories, but of course, Turbo has stepped in it and he's stuck. Could you peel his little feet off the jam? He's late for going into hibernation, and also somebody has to fill his little yellow ballon with helium so we can find him again in the spring!

Could you please pass the message on to the push-me-pull-me to say Tony needs some help with his apron straps.

Back off hols and raring to go, and i see i'm being blamed in my absence for chips now and i will have you know my chips are to die for! Hows everyone doing? Its nice to know i've been missed . Had a little natter with my lovely friend Elizabeth.Tiny is such a spoilt little boy with all his new toys and playstation and now his heart is somewhere else! Never mind tony you've always got Elizabeth, Stickie and little old me.Its nice to be back. I always used to wonder where the birds used to disappear to at a certain time of year and then read about them shedding their feathers and hiding out of the way of danger until they grew again,perhaps Tiny goes through something like this.

Hi Rose Nice to have you back nice lady. How dare anyone criticise your chips rose. Your jam is so beautyful and your rock buns are to die for. i am saying that as the body at my feet has a chip in his ear a rock bun in his hand and a pool of jam around his boots. Your not going to get me that easy. Glad your back though and hope hol did you good. Take care enjoy Tony

Thanks Tony, it was great. 2 weeks of sunshine and good food,must weigh as much as my jam! I've missed your quick sense of humour .Elizabeth told me some good news about her who won't be mentioned and is now no longer with us.Tony ,its my chips that are to die for, but i could make rock buns covered in my jam and you would never move again!

her who wont be mentioned???

Hi Rose ! yipee ! rock buns in jam. Deadley shot for my ships cannon. You are promoted to dunker number one but i will bring my own bisicuits. Have to negotiate with Elizabeth for who makes the brew. Stickie loyal to the end is painting the plank but in black and white stripes. Its the new colour Rose we are all going invisable as humbugs. See what you missed on hols Rose?. Take care enjoy. Tony

Ok stickie i cannot see the invisable man either. Take care Tony

Think he went along the plank - ahead of me. I'm painting arrows on the plank - to match my clothing, and also to remind walkers of the plank which direction to go!

I had to walk the plank in front of the invisible man, Sticki, but I hadn't any arrows to follow, so I just got to the end of the plank, over the edge, and walked straight back to the ship under the plank, luckily it was still covered in Rose's nummy jam, so I could stick to it ...could you possibly give me a wee hoick up please, lovely Sticki??
I don't mind, I'll make the brew Tony, everyone else is really busy, Sticki is busily painting meticulous stripes and arrows on the plank, Rose is baking cannon fodder, but she needs to know what flavour of jam you need? You are busily loading the cannon, Tiny is shrieking commands at everyone from your shoulder...love the punky yellow hairdo, Tony..er..Tiny! and Turbo is just trying to avoid being picked up and flung into the cannon, and fired into next door's garden, where he would no doubt land on Muffin, who would promptly turn into a Pancake!! Lol!

I shall have to pull you up by your boots or your socks (hope they are clean) as I can't reach down any further whilst holding a paint brush In one hand and Fending off roses cannon fodder with the other, could you grab hold of my laces?

Well ! After all that excitement, perhaps we should have tea, rock buns and jam? No ,sorry ,there's no jam as its stuck to the plank and poor Elizabeth. At least its saved you from going overboard Elizabeth,I knew I could save you.Stickie...Stickie...STICKIE...I knew you shouldn't have worn black and white,she's disappeared with the invisible man. Come back Stickie, I'll make some more jam! Tony, stop firing the cannon! We tried to grab the laces but they're slipping through.

Hi Stickie Why at the end of the plank is an arrow pointing up? i gave you the tin full of arrows pointing down. Don,t tell me you brought your own. Take care Tony

Elizabeth Stickie is useing her own arrows,sorry you got lost on the plank she paints them anywhere. Tony

Rose your a devil those laces belong to my pumps which my feet used to be in. More important Rose who lit the blooming flint i am heading towards ireland. Hey up this damsel is waving its, its, its, Elizabeth yipee. Another lady has a bow and arrow OUCH Stickie has done for me ,i am losing height. Is,nt it exciting(LoL). Take care Tony

this blog should be in pictures ~ mind you tony you are doing a very good job ~ i can picture it all.

the arrows you gave me didnt say which way to put them so i did my best, and yes one was pointing up to heaven but its better than the one that was pointing to the sharks.

where are you now tony? irish sea, scotch mist or have you made it to elizabeth's garden so you can sit and cosily eat scones and jam while poor rose and i have to try to sail a whole boat and there is a storm on the way.

Are you sure we haven't all made one massive leap and ended up with Peter Pan in Never never land!Thereyou are Tony flying up to Ireland so that must mean that Elizabeth is Tinkerbell . I wouldn't like to think who Stickie and I are , but hopefully one of us is not Captain Cook!Anyway, I think Stickie and I will have to try to fly up after you , because this ship could be sinking now with the weight of rock cakes and my jam! WAIT FOR US...

I'm sure I could find a pirate outfit - it's much more fetching than this arrow-print ensemble I am wearing.

Who is going to be the crocodile?

Rose dont worry about the weight of our vessel. The plank is equipped for 4 in an emergency and since Sticky painted it the water is sharkless.. As i flew over it this lady in a arrow print ensemble waved but alas Tinkerbell (sorry) Elizabeth managed to turn right at the arrow in time. We are now over Drumsnat near monaghan and are decending rapidley. Rose since you did,nt catch my shoe laces its been a heck of an experiance. Elizabeth is about to parachute into her wonderful garden and i am going down with a smile . Talley ho Rose and ten four Stickie . Blimey they are waiting for me again near the cow shed. Take care enjoy Tony

watch out for the cowadiles, crocodiles, cowpats???

Stickie about the pirate outfit can i wear the hat?. Tony

Stickie now you tell me

what will you swap it for?

a plank perhaps

no swap!

any better offer?

jacket with straps and a 3 leaf clover

nope ~ four leafed clover might have been worth thinking about but not 3.

how about swapping you wear my hat and i get to swing on tiny's swing??

that jacket does not suit me either ~ prefer leather with zip

So...there I was paying due diligence to Rose's homecoming blog, waiting, thinking, well, they'll all be over soon...Sticki had commented first, well done that girl! Always on the ball! But she usually comes back to make another nice comment, so, Rose, isn't here, Sticki isn't here, Tony isn't here... Had a brainwave...yep! You're all playing over here!!

hello libet ~ i need a bit of help ~ tony is trying to put me in a jacket with straps, he wants to take my hat and put me on a plank ~ do you think he is still friends with me??
i have a feeling he might be Captain Tony Hook in disguise?? I think i might be one of the lost boys???

By the way, I can hardly see my screen for the tears tripping me, you two have perfect comedy timing!! Sooo funny!
That wasn't Tinkerbell waving at you Tony, it was my brainwaving! And Rose, I think I may be more of a tinker than a Tinkerbell! Lol! Sticki, I think a pirates outfit would be very fetching on you, perhaps you could ask Tony if he would swap your pirate hat for Tiny, so he could sit on your shoulder Sticki, and shriek 'pieces of four!' I know it's supposed to be eight, but he's only little! We could stick him to your shoulder with Rose's jam!!
Ahem! Leather with zip?? Sticki! Whatever next!
Thank you for saving me Rose, with your extra sticky Rhubarb jam, what's that? why Rhubarb? Rhubarb comes in 'sticks' Rose!! Lol!! :0))

yes i will do a swap for tiny ~ jammed to my shoulder

i have a red leather jacket libet ~ you dont think tiny would mess on it do you only i cant afford the cleaning bill.

Slight diversion in the kitchen

I have had to blindfold Minty the cat and make her walk the plank
there was, i can assure you ~ very good reason for this:

it is a hot night, the door is open to let in a little fresh air, a quiet miaow announces the return of minty ~ not alone as it turns out ~but accompanied by a captured mouse ~ not dead!

Minty kindly presents the little mouse, on the kitchen floor, mouse looks round ~ i try to usher it out of the door [visitors welcome normally], sadly i was too slow ~ minty carried off her prize!

Oh no! Sticki! You know, Tony won't let just anyone wear his 'special' jacket, you have to prove to him that you are worthy to wear it. You know, it takes him hours polishing up the buckles, Tiny insists on helping, bless 'im, but he's only got little lungs, and it takes him an absolute age to muster up enough breath to huff on the brass, so Tony can polish up those buckles until they gleam!
As for the plank...everything walks up that...if it's not screwed down...it gets thrown up Tony's plank! And I don't think Tony's Capt'n Hook, didn't he lose his watch? And seeing as Tony's off Goy promptly at 11:00, nightcap, and off to heaven as he calls it, he would need a watch for that, soooo I don't think so, but...maybe you know better!(Ester Ransen moment there!)

The sea is very rough tonight ~ please dont mention throwing things up. perhaps roses jam would do a good settling job.

the jacket is mine ~ i dont need tony's jacket after all but i would be obliged if he would lend me tiny to polish it occasionally ~ i feel sure those lovely feathers would buff it up beautifully.

OMG!!! Has she gone back outside with it!? If Chloe has a mouse in her mouth, all you have to do is lift her up & hold a bowl under her mouth...and she literally spits it into the bowl! Hilarious!! The mouse can't get out because it can't run up the skiddy sides of the bowl, it gets transported to the bottom of the garden, let off under the hedge and voila! Robert is indeed a close relative...job done!! But eeeeekkk!! all the same! Lol! :-0

I would agree with you normally, but he's having a wee bit of a moult at the moment, and I expect the wee quilly bits sticking out might be a tad scratchy on your leather just yet! Best to leave it for maybe a week, and then I'm sure he'd be only too pleased to give your lovely red leather a bit of a buff-up!! It sounds lovely! If I lived closer, I could try it on!! It would go down a treat at my meeting tomorrow! Ooopps! better go to bed, I'll be worth nothing in the morning!! Nighty night!!

Minty is now holding the mouse prisoner on the bridge of the ship ~ threatening to sail to Never never land unless she is allowed free passage ~ with mouse to accompany.

Well, I miss all the fun,I knew I shouldn't have watched my soaps and not to mention lovely Doc martin( Martin Clunes).You all flew off without me. I think I should get Peter Pan to get Tinkerbell (Elizabeth) to come and get me, so I can fly into her lovely garden too. Rhubarb jam Elizabeth,perhaps I should make that instead! Tony ,you can't swap the plank with Stickie, we need it! Stickie, I don't really want the mouse on board our ship.I'm still flying right behind you all now as Peter Pan has shown me the way . but I can't seem to catch up,WAIT FOR ME...

I wasnt keen on the mouse either Rose but we all now seem to be under the command of Admiral Minty ~ she has made mouse the first officer!!

Just told hubby about some of our chats and he thinks we're all ready for the funny farm and people with white coats should be coming for us all,but I told him that they tried a while back ,especially with Tony and they sent us all back! Lol! There wasI , Stickie ,thinking that Tiny was in charge.

Tiny seems to be having time out for moulting feathers which I can't quite understand - in our climate it's time to get a fur coat ready - not trying out the equivalent of a grass skirt?

I forgot about that Stickie ,so with Tony's permission it will have to be Minty.Sorry Holby Cities calling. We do like our tele.

I'm watching great British bake off at the same time.

Blinking heck Rose your hubby is so correct. The only mistake he made was thinking i was out though (LoL). 5 star fruit farm and i am still looking for the Strawberries. Take care Tony

Stickie has a jacket with a zip on it . But whats on the back ?. Now there,s a thing me harty. Take care enjoy Tony

Elizabeth don,t buy stickies leather jacket . She won,t let me try her pirates hat on. Is,nt it nice to have a high profile discussion(LoL). Enjoy take care Tony

i wasnt selling my jacket tony, there is possibly a skull and crossbones on the back of my jacket, and a feather in my cap!

or was that skill and crisp bones on the jacket???

Yes! Isn't it just! I think the standard of conversation has reached, at the very least, level with the top of the pile on the carpet! Put it this way...we wouldn't give Malcolm Muggeridge any sleepless nights! Speaking of which...I'm away to my wee bed....yaaawwwnnnn!

Lol! Sticki! 'skillet' and crisp bones... aannndddd we're back on food again!! I could murder a piece of toast!! No! I'm going to bed, with no supper...:0/

bed with no supper ~ have you been a naughty girl libet?? [im having trouble even imagining that!!]

I'm not sure which page you are all on, but I really need to have a good old moan.2 things,first thing ,sent some photos and letter to our friends in Turkey, its been rejected, either there were too many pics. or I had the wrong email address.Secondly,we have been decorating all day , so decided to do my next blog . Halfway through the computer shut down, apparently there had to be an update .By the time I got back on line,my blog had disappeared ,and as you know, my blogs are never short.So I will give up and start again tomorrow. I am not a happy bunny.If ,knowing my luck you've all jumped ship, I will catch you tomorrow when I've calmed down.

hiya rose
sorry you are having a bad day. i have those sometimes too. i think the computer would tell you if there were too many pictures or if they were too big [in terms of memory used]
if im not sure about an email address i try to reply to an old email so i cant get it wrong
if i am sending pictures i might send a few in each email rather than lots in one
all my pictures have to be resized to send or upload onto here
you probably didnt want to know all that
what i really mean to say is im sorry its going wrong. i know what that feels like
