Windows

Image
We're having another incredibly busy week...  But are hoping that things will calm down for us soon. A bit late for this really, but better late than never. We're linking up with  Jane's  View From My Window... On Thursday, we were out working all day.  One of the jobs was our final clean at a house we have decided to quit taking care of. The last time we'll see this view... It's been a bumpy old road with this one & we're happy to be saying goodbye. We also have one other that we will be finishing in a few weeks time - a job that takes up a lot of our time & energy, when all we really want to do is get our second B&B room up & running, so we feel the moment is right for moving on... The view from our window. The lilies are going to be chopped back this weekend & we'll see if they will pick up again. We desperately need to get some weeding & tidying done. Blue skies! It's been lots

Lupuschki's Jazz Archives Volume 1

Image
Lupe likes to lie next to the computer when there's jazz playing... " This is his very favourite tune.  It has to be played over & over again if ever he goes on a car journey...  It helps him to remain calm! If he can't get onto the computer desk...  The next best thing is the cabinet beside it, where he drifts away listening to some soothing tunes. Daddy sometimes gets a bit carried away & turns the volume up... Which just grates on his nerves! Have a good weekend everyone...  We're off to work now & have guests in later, so busy, busy! K&S xx

A Different View

Image
The view from the window of a house we were cleaning this morning... Looking towards Gorran Haven Harbour & the coastal path going around the headland. Linking up with  Jane  again. This is at a freezing cold Mylor Harbour on Tuesday. We did have 4 days off from cleaning, but not sure where the time has gone... Hope you are all well & keeping warm! Kay & Sime xx

Lizard

Image
This little chap was mooching about the kitchen this morning... We're not sure if the kitties bring them in, but we've had them in the house a few times over the years... Always with docked tails too, though on one occasion when we first moved here 8 years ago, there was just a tail wiggling about in the dining room... Which totally freaked us out!!! We think it's a common lizard - does anyone know much about them? K&S xx

Is Spring Here?

Image
Today has been a beautiful day... View from our garden. Sunset was around 6.30pm here today. Our clocks go forward tonight, so the sun will be setting after 7.30pm... Yippee! The daffs are on their last legs... The kitties love us being in the garden... Beautiful Fleaby! We've got quite a bit of tidying up to do... We've been surprised to see garlic growing from being planted 2 years ago... Lupe by the computer again... Sime engrossed... Tired me... It's been a long week! Our unplugged day tomorrow - I'm hoping to get some crocheting done, we also want to go nettle gathering... Though we still have guests to look after, so we shall see! We actually have 4 days off cleaning work - which is nice... We fell in love with this song, which is the theme tune from the French film, Paris - Seize The Day by Wax Tailor. It feels spring like... Hope you like it! Night, night. Kay & Sime xx

Thursday View

Image
Linking up with  Jane  again...  Here's today's view(s). Late afternoon sunshine - looking out of our dining room... The lilies do look like they are on their way out. Poor things... They are usually blooming by now... Maybe the sun will pick them up... Sime's been adding extra quirkiness to our dining room just lately... We now have forks for door handles. I came up with the idea of making the screws look more colourful! This is our dining table light. Sime's named it too... Clarity! I think we've shared a photo of the Euphonium before. Which lives above the wood burner... Flea, this morning in his usual bed... Looks like he has a piece of bamboo coming out of him! Lupin tonight... Chilling in front of the computer. Yesterday, we had the pleasure of meeting Mr & Mrs Sft ... Which was wonderful! Our first blog friends to have visited Meadowcroft . We had a great pep talk about Saving F
