Since the last post

Like a bad penny, here I am again!.

Since my last post my grandson Jacob has gone away on his mission like his father before him, but whereas his father stayed in this country Jacob is off to The Greece Athens mission, which encompasses all it's islands and Cyprus as well, so could be travelling a lot over the next two years.

At the moment he is in the Missionary Training Centre at Chorley, whilst he learns to speak Greek and then off to Greece in 9 weeks.

That's his fathers badge from 25 years ago, his will be in Greek!.

The picture taken at the Chorley mission Training centre on the day he went away.

Last week I took my Granddaughter Ruth to Uppermill,

 The canal near to the museum 

and this makes a better picture doesn't it with Ruth and Pepe.

Then it was up to the garden centre there to buy a new pot which had fell off the fence or was knocked off .

Then it was over to the Kingfisher pub at Greenfield for dinner. 

Time for a bit of exercise then, so off to Dovestones to check on Velda's tree.

After a bit of searching we finally found it and checked that all was well and that the strange weather over the past few weeks hadn't had any adverse effects on it, has you see it's growing well

Nice outlook across the lake.

Have been trying to eat healthier lately, 

My usual lunch, the pigging out version

The healthier option.

 My latest lunch, without the cucumber which repeats on me all day

But Pepe seems to like it though, and snatched it off me before I could tighten my grip.

 Got it off him before he could eat it all though as I didn't know how it would effect him at the other end.

On the garden front look at my Succulents 

Nice hey!.
