The last Roses of summer

These are the roses I cut the other day. All summer they have been pink, they are from the two "Tickled Pink" standard roses that the girls gave us for our Ruby wedding. These though, which have all opened since I brought them in are much more peach in colour, strange. They've bloomed profusely all summer right up till now, but I decided it was time to give them a severe pruning before the weather gets too cold. I must take a picture of them pruned so that when they flower next summer I can compare them.
Church this morning, we had 31 which is pretty good, all suitably spaced and social distanced/bemasked as usual thank goodness we have our new boiler... I do miss singing though.
This afternoon we took Colin's car down for its MOT, pick it up again tomorrow hopefully. On the way back I popped by to drop off some oatmeal for Katy and the girls they were making flapjacks. They showed me their beautifully painted nails, Katy says she's glad that their bathroom /nail salon is a place of function rather than beauty lol!
Back home I transferred our group phone list onto a spread sheet and put it in alphabetical order. So nice when I can press a button and it does all the work for me. I was pretty p***** when I went to print it out though, to discover that yesterday's Mac OS upgrade has removed the ability for it to communicate with our elderly printer. I can use another laptop to print but it's so annoying when something which worked perfectly is no longer compatible. They may yet release a driver for it, so fingers crossed.
I took up the hem on a pair of "short" length trousers by 4" how ridiculous, I'm not exactly tiny at 5'4". I was very lazy and used my machine, but it's pretty well invisible and I never go anywhere or see anybody these days anyway. Talking of which I made a rookie mistake and put on lipstick this morning , duh! Nobody can see it when you are wearing a mask and it gets all over the inside of the mask too. I won't make that mistake again.

After a delicious today chicken dinner we settled down and watched the last episode of Roadkill. Enjoyed the series and they've left the door open for the next series too very good cast and good photography too.

I also watched, unplanned, the opening episode of I'm A Celebrity, not my usual viewing but it is set in a part of Wales which I used to know very well as my mum was from Old Colwyn. Sleeping in an unheated old castle in sleeping bags on hard beds in November, brrrrr.

When I opened up my blip this evening I was amused to see the first two thumbnails, see extra, which were perfectly matched.

Keep safe everybody, another week already and 244 days - a day short of 35 weeks since Colin and I first locked ourselves down in March. I'd only been back from India for a week so it was all rather surreal, and still is.
