Month: June 2019

Lou had a spa day and Rhys had a busy day working yesterday and so we had Ollie, Oscar and Josie. First stop of course, the river and the park and then the Co op opened just at the right time to have Mer-maid ice creams!! Ollie even found one of the Thanet hidden rocks and hid it again down at the park.

Ellie then saw Kim, all the dogs know that he has treats in  his pocket and he is a really soft touch!

Lots of nests around and wait until the seagulls start screeching! We did speak to the man who lives next to the river and he told us out of the 15 ducklings on the river, the seagulls have taken 13 of them.

Mal then took them to the allotment which they love helping out down there. Today’s job was laying bark chip on the paths and watering.

Back home and Mal cooked us a BBQ for lunch.

For a long while Whitstable has been “the place to be” and every weekend you will find it full of DFL’s (Dahn from London) hipsters. Margate has had its turn too. That’s OK as long as you keep to the trendy streets and don’t wander into Cliftonville.  Now the trend is moving to Deal which is now the place to buy property and be seen for the weekend. Interesting!

Mal took Ellie early to avoid the heat and I went shopping. After a real battle with Debenhams over two damaged tops ordered online, I went to Resolver. It is now sorted and I have closed the case. They “do not do compensation” but would make “a gesture of goodwill” if I closed the case. I told them until I knew what this was I wasn’t closing it. The reply came back they would send me a £20 gift voucher (and an apology) which they did. Case closed.  So, this morning I put it towards a new pair of sandals! I suggest if other people have complaints they use Resolver. The problem is nowadays that no one seem to bother and the companies get away with it, time and time again.

We spent the afternoon in the garden.

Later…….

Torin bought me the Spurs top a few years ago.

Well, what can I say they lost!
