Saturdays...are good!


Saturdays remind me of ham salad with salad cream,
bread and butter and tea!
My husband was brought up on Sausages and Mash...
always on Saturdays!
My daughter says Saturdays mean sleeping, cooked breakfast,
Jonathan Ross on the radio and Dr. Who on the TV.

Click on the picture to see why the boy looks forward to Saturdays...
What do Saturdays mean to You?

Words I Like - Cosy

Cosy
comfortable, secure, warm, cuddled up,
sheltered, snug, tucked up.

Cosy Corner Dining Table and Chairs
Unusual!
The seats can make the table longer!


This is Cosy!!
I cannot imagine my dog being in the same room with a cat - nevermind a bed!

Places I have lived in the UK - Dorchester

The house on the left with the green door is the one we lived in. It is a beautiful house with curved walls and unusual detail. Pondbury Village is different and we are not likely to ever live somewhere like it again! Prince Charles' Village! Oh Yes!

We thoroughly enjoyed living there and when the time came we were very sad to leave. Charming backgarden, pedestrianized, quiet and within walking distance of Dorchester town centre. If you look out for Poundbury online you'll soon realize what an expensive area this is. We got to know so many people there and were able to mix well with the town groups and churches.

The Salvation Army in Dorchester is small and we met in the Methodist Church for worship but its Charity Shop was amazing and raised a really fantastic amount of money.There were many volunteers working in the charity shop and we had great fun rearranging the shop, introducing a book area and lots of extra shelving. We were involved in all sorts of other things including the OverSixties and Luncheon Club.

The homelessness situation in the area was noticeable with vast numbers of men, families and women queuing up for clothing, toiletries and hot drinks among other things. We met some very interesting people that way and it was a pleasure to help them, yes, even the very smelly ones! Christians opened a centre where they could shower!


We hope and Pray the Salvation Army in Dorchester continues to expand and do well.
