THE PARTY'S OVER

I feel like Mrs Noah this morning! The rain is pouring down and making a LOT of noise on my kitchen sky lights, I am stocked up with food(party left overs) and I have Guinea pigs in the house.So the rain , the food and the animals BUT unlike Mrs Noah I still have to go out to take Beauty to school.
My back is communicating with me, not talking but screaming! I spent a lot of time baking yesterday standing up and my back is in absolute agony. I have a wheelchair but that brings no relief as my damage is half way up my back and so sitting in a chair is as painful( or pain creating) as standing up. Usually I spend my day between lying down and feeding the washing machine and dishwasher, the more I stand the more my back seems to rub and become more inflamed and painful. I don't go out in the day if I can help it because of bad drivers(!) and the escalation in pain.The sun shone for a little while at the party but it is Glastonbury weekend so we have to expect some rain! Fiona and SnoWhite and I have decided that we will will go to Glastonbury one year but not until I have bought the camper van that I intend to buy.

I have always wanted a VW Bus .I am way too old for camping with my back and Fiona and SnoWhite refuse to camp again after the wash-out that was the last church camp.

We are having PROBLEMS with the guinea pigs.They may have girls names but they are in fact two boys, allegedly! One appears to be mounting the other frequently, and according to a Google search this is actual not a se-ual( I am not being a prude,I am just wary of spam) thing but a male dominance thing, alpha male-let's decide who is boss kind of thing(but how they know this is a mystery to me-perhaps a guinea pig told his shrink one day). Due to the possibility of excess bullying the sites I visited suggested another cage for some time out,it's like have 2 more children in the house to referee-if Fiona and SnoWhite weren't bad enough. Beauty is as good as gold, she maybe autistic but she is a sweetheart compared to the guinea pigs and her ever fighting siblings!
I think that it is time to rename the guinea pigs, I suggested Sammy and Dean(AKA The Winchester Brothers from Supernatural and Fiona and SnoWhite like the idea of Chunk and Mouth from The Goonies.
Anybody else have any good ideas but remember this is a family show

Looks like a great party. Hope your back is feeling better again soon.

Leaving tomorrow from my holiday. It's been great, but it's time to go.

Looks like you live in a house full of princesses! Interesting tidbit about the guinea pigs - that's something I never knew. It does make one wonder exactly how the in-the-know animal experts come to know what they know! :) Thanks for visiting my blog, by the way! I had fun visiting here and at your other blog. I learned something there too ... about Brutalism architecture.

My wife used to own a campervan and still waxes lyrical about it. It could only do 30mph uphill but apparently it was a great "get away from it all" vehicle. It didn't matter if it was raining as you could open the door and feel like you were outside but with the bonus of not getting soaked.

I have wanted a camper van for a long time because there are so many places in the UK and Ireland that I would like to see.There is no way I could drive anything larger that a camper van because of my back and I would like a vehicle that I could drive and park easily anywhere.SnoWhite and Fiona also like the same sort of things as me and would love to visit Art festivals and galleries and beaches and sight-see but the price of staying in a B&B would be too much for the 4 of us.

An Irish Blessing

(A Blessing from St. Patrick)
May the road rise to meet you,

May the wind be always at your back,

May the sun shine warm upon your face,

May the rains fall soft upon your fields,

And, until we meet again,

May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.
