The Pointless Page

Staying at home, Brue, and also for next few weeks at least as MIL just out of hospital following knee replacement. Had to take her back urgently today as leg seeping but all now under control. We're staying put until she's more mobile so have cancelled our May bookings.

Before setting off we had an emergency phone call. An elderly neighbour has one of those call buttons around her neck and she'd fallen. We're first contact so Call Centre rang us. Fortunately she's OK but you can't be too careful when they're in their nineties. Doctors been and changed her medication. Eventful morning.

Hope you have a peaceful evening Wherenext and get away soon.

Just watching Ladies TdeY race. County is trimmed up lovely this year for races, lots of nice village displays, lots of folk out watching. Giant Yorkshire Pudding and a proper Indian Curry bus included in pre race display. Certainly brought lots of visitors into area, we saw lots of MHs and caravans yesterday.

How lovely. Good job there's extras going on as the race is a blurrrrrrrrr. Enjoy it.

We found a good viewing spot yesterday, just after feeding station, so they were just spinning along, sorting out their goodie bags, prior to tackling Cote de Goathland. I'd post a picture, but........ can't be bothered with all faff it needs on here, sorry!

enjoy the tour TDA I'm at home this weekend as my little camper needed a new Catalytic Converter on Tues so that's me skint now for a bit !! 

Those nice Irish boys Jedward have just one tonight's edition of Pointless.

Truly, it does come any more pointless than that, surely? 

As MOH says 'Its pointless watching that, as you don't know nothing anyway'.

I watch it sometimes but can never work out which series it is, it seems to be on a continuous loop.

OH is recovering from seeing his carefully nurtured outdoor grapevine ruined by frosts last week. Not as bad as a neighbour who has lost a whole field of vines. I hear French vineyards suffered too, so stock up now before prices go up. 

Oh dear, that's bad news brue. Must have been a really bad frost. We have two outside, a white and a red. Just hope they are ok. They were doing fine when we left home, starting to bud up and put on leaf. Pointless worrying about them, nothing I can do........except buy another one just in case! We are three miles from nursery where I bought them from!
