Off and On!



Today is my Mums Birthday!
Happy Birthday Mum. xx
My brother is taking her out for the day so Lit'lun and I who had already decided to get up early to avoid the holiday maker traffic, decided to drop round and see her before she went, to give her a Birthday card, we had already given her a present. We chatted for a while then went to do the horses, whilst we were there I got a text message from the Northern Bird to say her car had broken down on the M6 and she was being taken home car and all by the break down company.
We were all gutted!
After doing the horses we went home, Lit'lun went to meet a friend at the railway station and I decided to turn Twiglets vivarium from a plastic play house into a rustic retreat (LOL)
The grass was ready to go in and I had the wood and bits to go into it.
As soon as she realised something was happening she came out for a look! licked the nearest new object and immediately began to anoint herself ( make froth and contort herself to put the froth all over her body, typical hedgehog behaviour and very amusing to watch.
Whilst I was doing this, the Northern bird text again to say her Mum had put Northern bird on her insurance and lent her the car.Yay. It means she will spend a lot of the day travelling but at least she gets to come down.
Lit'lun and I had lunch then she went off to the green as there is a holiday youth group from 9am till 9pm called "The Noise".
I prepared the dinner then Northern bird rang to say she would meet me at Tesco, as she had to get some bits, we could also get a cuppa in the cafe, or so we thought! When we got there the cafe was closed, so we got a few bits and went back to my house for a drink instead.
We had a good natter before she and her daughter had to go and book into their accommodation.
Just as they were leaving Storm turned up to return the catalogue so we all converged at the front door.
When they had all gone I put the dinner on ready for my Husband coming home from work.
