Bored yet?
In July we hosted the Olympics (Britain, I mean; I can’t see us hosting even a swimming event in our back garden, though it was wet enough). You sent me photos of what you were doing during the Opening Ceremony. Most, like mine, showed you eating, drinking and watching telly in your pyjamas:


I danced in the rain:

I had root canal treatment:

My family were sympathetic:

In August it began to feel like autumn, having bypassed summer after a wet and feeble spring. We went camping with four children and two dogs in torrential rain, but managed a day on the beach:


Before we went away, we put up our new shed. Here’s Tory Boy drawing a picture of his father on the old shed:

And Spud working hard:

I had poems in a couple of anthologies, including this one:

And yet again I blogged about hair:

September reminded me why I love the Hub so much:



And brought First Contact with another blogger, Pseu:

I wrote my 2000th post:

And discovered my favourite top in a charity shop for £3.50:
Don’t worry! Only one more post to go.















Good memories! I’ve saved the Toby (?) flying pic for a haiga – I hope you don’t mind.
I was chuffed and I’ve printed it out to cover my next notebook.
I so look forward to your blog this coming year, you are truly an inspiration to me and I thank you for bringing humor to my sour old heart!!!
My pleasure, I assure you
That dancing photo is my absolute favourite!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! ALOHA FROM HAWAII.
I love that brown top. It goes well with your hair. Very pretty!
Thank you
Happy New Year!
I like the way you’ve done your hair in that last picture… a side parting suits you! And the tops really pretty too.
Wonderful. Looking forward to more… TY for your friendship and support.

Ahh, memories – but not a mention or a pic of Maltesers! Didn’t you have any last year? lol
They are my constant companion so I don’t need a reminder photo
You look so beautiful in the picture with your favorite top. I couldn’t stop giggling at the Hub. You have become such a special part of my day. I am so looking forward to sharing 2013 with you and the Hub, Tory and Spud.
You have me blushing
I remember so many of these good photos!!!! We have all had a good year. Let us continue it into the new year
Happy dogs … happy boys … happy hub .. and mad Linda. Thanks for all the smile and laughter .. and thanks for the ones I didn’t understand and those I didn’t like.
Lots of fun moments in 2013, I see!
Great memories. I too love your hair with a side parting, it makes you look much younger!
A totally classy year! The hair coming out of your blouse is indeed my favorite! Although the photo of your dancing in the rain is a wonderful photo. The Hub encased in stickers shows me he’s a very, very good sport!
