This pot of flowers was planted by the birds

these are such delicate flowers one gust of wind and the petals are blown off ~ the Bees seem to love them ~

Our visit to the Theatre Royal

 

Lyn and I met up with about 20 friends to have a tour round The Theatre Royal ~ many times a few years ago I used to go see productions there~ mostly the Pantomime or perhaps a musical ~

but I never realised how much work went into producing one of these shows

 

We went on stage ~ saw the Wardrobe mistress looking after the clothes and the wigs used in the productions ~ we saw the stage door and the side wings and everything that goes on while a production is in progress

 

our tour guide was so full of everything connected with the Theatre ~ he knew how many people could be seated in the theatre and anything else we asked him questions about ~ he said he loved working here in Norwich as the productions changed every week ~ and said he would hate to work in London where the productions could last for weeks or even months ~

We never dreamed we could enjoy a visit so much ~ at the end of the tour we went to the restaurant where they had laid on a meal for us ~ which was most enjoyable ~ it was a stew and dumplings ~ don’t sound very exciting but it was delicious ~ and sitting with friends made it most enjoyable ~ Next year we have been told another tour has been arranged and I for one must say I shall look forward to visiting the Theatre again

I never wanted to go on the stage and seeing the work that goes on behind stage I NEVER WANT TOO

Have a great Bank Holiday

Happy Birthday Amber Added a picture of Lewie

Amber celebrated her 14th Birthday Yesterday 21st May ~ today lots of her family and friends gathered to have a celebratory BBQ ~ the day started off Dull with a little rain ~ which was disappointing as we have been having some lovely Sun filled days ~But by the time we had all gathered round the Sun came out and it was quite warm ~

Blue Boy was on guard hoping someone would drop a morsel or two so that he would get a treat ~

Lewie on the other hand (their other dog) decided he wanted to help himself to some food before it all went ~ so he stole some Sausages and Burgers (11 Sausages and the same amount of burgers) (he is a very big dog :O) and Tom had to go back to the shop to get some  replacements ~ so Lewie was banished from the garden and the food ~

Here is Lewie who is now indoors ) Looking very sorry for himself ~

 

Picture just to let you know how big Lewie is ~ he had no ill effects from eating all those burgers and sausages :O)

We all had a lovely day ~ Amber went into the City Yesterday and spent all of her Birthday money But she was very happy ~ and bought herself some nice Bargains (All clothes of course and the odd bit of jewellery)  ~ but it was good to see her so contented ~ and happy with her life ~

I would like to have these celebrations every Sunday ~ but I think that would be too much work ~ So I look forward to the next Birthday and a family get together ~

 

 

Gathering of the Aunts Nieces Sisters and Daughters

Today we as a family (the Girls) met up to catch up with what is going on in our lives ~ so we do not lose touch with each other ~ we had a lovely day with lots of Laughter and lots of good food ~ we do this about 4 or 5 times a year at different Houses ~ and always enjoy ourselves ~

Now I must tell you of a small incident that happened on our way there ~ we were driving along the main road into Dereham and this little tan coloured terrier was crossing the road ~ very slowly ~ we pulled up as did the cars coming towards us ~

The little dog padded into a garden and we thought and hoped perhaps it was where it lived ~ Lyn hopped out of the car and knocked on the door (Twice) ~ The lady came to answer it and said I got here as quickly as I could (We don’t think she appreciated ringing her bell twice :O)~ but when Lyn asked her if the little dog belonged to her ~ she was shocked as she did not know it had got out of her Garden ~ and she explained to Lyn that it was Blind and Deaf ~ and she was very thankful that we found it’s home ~ (The Little Dogs name is Pepper)

I was happy that he was safe with his owner ~
