Friday 27th July 2018......an afternoon of music!!


The only plan today was not until the afternoon so lazed around the garden and had some company...









This afternoon I took Ruth to the seniors village where Heather works to listen to their afternoon of music and let me tell you it was awesome....Wilma a volunteer came and played for nearly an hour all the old favourite songs that had smiling clapping and singing.....

She was an amazing player all without music and a great personality ....to watch the faces of the residents was a humbling experience..Heather  you do such a fantastic job and that facility is lucky to have you....


Before everyone left we sang Happy Birthday to Ruth who turns 91 tomorrow...isn’t she great looking!!!






Had to take Boomer back to the vet this afternoon he got to his tail again hopefully this time the bandage and collar will keep him safe.


Tried to see the moon today but way too cloudy!!



Skywatchers will be treated to the longest "blood moon" eclipse of the 21st Century on Friday. 

As it rises, during this total eclipse, Earth's natural satellite will turn a striking shade of red or ruddy brown.

The "totality" period, when light from the Moon is totally obscured, will last for one hour, 43 minutes.

At least part of the eclipse is visible from Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Australia, most of Asia and South America.

In the UK, rain clouds permitting, the Moon will appear entirely red - fully eclipsed by Earth .

On the same night and over the coming days, Mars will be at its closest point to Earth since 2003 - visible as a "bright red star" where skies are clear. 


Yashi Kochi!!!
