a tad frustrating...!

After being denied access to the BB for what seems like, many weeks, I was delighted to be connected this morning. I set about writing a long blog about this that and the other and then the whole thing disappeared... This will be a shortened version !!!

First of all, welcome back Tenneh. Sorry to hear about your difficulties and sadness , good to know that you still have your horse and somewhere to ride. All the best for your new direction, good to know that you have a supportive group to work with.

A "Haven for quilters" !! What could be nicer ? For many years I have been trying to convince a chosen group of friends to "down size" their homes and join with us to purpose build a small complex with shared facilities and independent, individual living quarters (for want of a better word ) for each couple. No takers yet, but I think the idea has merit, from many points of view. One couple, who couldn't wait, sold up last year and moved into a small house in town. They are bored to tears and would like to get back out into a rural community. We'll see... I'm not holding my breath ! Many years ago, when young people began "mixed flatting" I thought that we should think about doing the same at the other end of life (with a few refinements !!) DH is 71 today so it's maybe time to start thinking a bit more seriously about it all.

We've had a couple of weeks of very hot weather recently, after a disappointing summer. There is a touch of Autumn in the air now that March has started, I've been out of the country for the last two years at this time of the year so I look forward to autumn this year. The days are usually warm and sunny with little or no wind , lovely....

Well, that's enough ! Hopefully this will get through !
Enjoy the day.
Marion.
