Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

Is that the show in Cranage Jazzy ?, I keep thinking about going but never get organised, not been to a show for a long time.

Yep that's the one BJ.
There are a lot of exbitors so should be good.

Morning everybody. The sun hasn't fully come out here in County Durham and it is very windy. So I'm sat here in a summer dress feeling like a bit of a divvy!
Last night after I posted, at around 11.15pm the police knocked on our door. Wrong house, they were looking for the neighbour. I don't know what to do now. The police wouldn't routinely do that unless they had something to tell you. My brother, ex police officer, says if it is good news I.e the person has been found they would do it by phone but the bad news calls are always in person. Very worrying. I was going to put a note through the door just reiterating that if she wants to come round she will be welcome or to be more proactive and knock and see how she is, assuming she answers. What do you think?

Bloody hell. It sound like very bad news.

Audiophile or just a good listener ?

Both really blue. It's a big hobby of mine ( much to Mrs Js dismay)

 

[Gwladysover]

Really?. You've spoilt my Friday.?

Sorry about that.

 

[Barnfred 55]

Sorry about that.

No you're not?

Ha ha. Cal used to always say that whenever I said sorry to her. And most of the time she'd be right.?

I think you should try to see signs of action from the house first and then knock . She might be in a heck of a state though so be prepared .

Curses, you guessed . Your Cal was a very wise woman, obviously could read you like a book.lol

Doesn’t sound very good but I sincerely hope that I’m wrong. You could try knocking but if you don’t get a reply pop a note through saying that you are there if needed. Hope the sun came out for you. It’s very windy here too but also very hot 31 degrees.

Take it from me, if the police have delivered bad news, she will, (or should) have a victim support team helping her. That said, a note offering to help with the mundane stuff if she needs it would most likely be welcomed. Basically because the chances are she hasnt even thought of them yet. Things like a small shop, any meetings/commitments that need cancelling, that sort of stuff.

Lets hope for the best mind.

Kind of. My ex wife's 2nd husband was killed in a RTA, ages ago now, and I immediately took over the kids stuff; school run, gave them tea before they went back to her later in the day, (if she was up to it). She simply didnt not have the capacity to deal with mundane, cos the police helped her with the actual important/had to be done stuff.

With Nik passing, it was slightly different, cos it wasnt sudden, nor that unexpected, so the shock of an instant transformation in your everyday life just wasnt there.

Thats awesome, have you ever seen Karakuri puzzles? handmade wooden puzzles with mechanisms, some are amazing.

That’s beautiful … there’s a reason all of my chisels and saws are Japanese tools
