Those hang up Keep Safe tokens are going a bit soggy. They needed clear varnish but they'll maybe dry out OK anyway. We've even seen them hung in bushes and on low branches on our walks.
So long and thanks for all the fish

Nice picture though, I wish I could paint like that. I probably could if it had numbers.
my wife wrote the numbers on before I coloured it...  :)

Well, you can only paint where the numbers are. Don't beat yourself up over it.

They have one next door but I don't think it is as good as mine. I think they may be younger than me though so perhaps that's the reason. They didn't put their age on theirs so I can't be certain.

The hang up Keep Safe token went so soggy that it fell off the ribbon. The postman trod on it and traipsed it all up the path and onto the front step. Still a nice thought which is more than I can say for mine when I had to scrape it up in the rain. Hey ho.

Waste of scarce flour if you ask me. What are people thinking about.

The letters he put through the door were to both me and my wife. They were from the bank telling us that the interest rate of our cash ISAs were being reduced to 0.02% from May 15th.


I wonder if I could do some more rainbows and sell them.

I think we have all had similar letters. It worries me that we might be in some sort of a jam before too long. Best thing to do is spend it now while it's still worth something.

The cost of the stamps was probably more than the first years interest and they'd already told me by email anyway.

I think I can rely on my wife and children for assistance with that plan.
