Ok, so it’s not the end of the world but it was the F.A.Cup Final here today, the biggest day of the year in English football. My team, West Ham, had got to the final for the first time in 26 years. It looked like they might win, as with three minutes to go, they were 3-2 up. Then the sky fell in and Liverpool scored. Half an hour of extra time provided no result so it went to penalties, but the boys had run their socks off and had nothing left. Liverpool won on penalties 
. I’ve supported West Ham since I was 10 and was thrilled to see them reach the final, so will content myself with that.
Have been brave and installed a new template, Fauna. I think it’s beautiful and I first saw it at Chintz Cottage. Julia has told me that it’s very good for Widgets, which I’ve had no experience of, but I fancied a challenge…….and Julia has very kindly said that I can ask her for help if I can’t work anything out……I have a feeling there’ll be a few emails winging her way 
I’ve used another beautiful Russell Flint watercolour, link at bottom of page.
The weather has been horrible today after three beautiful warm and sunny days. Today is typical weekend weather…..damp, cool and cloudy. But tomorrow we’re promised the sun will reappear, so fingers crossed!
American Idol also made me feel sad last night. I was very sorry to see Chris go as I loved his voice. I feel sure that he will still do well though…surely America won’t see a talent like that go to waste? Elliot remains my favourite, his voice is so rich and velvety and he has a wonderful sense of rhythm. He uses his voice like a musical instrument. I do hope he wins!

Hello my dear friend !
Oh I’m sorry your team lost … I am not into sport at all, so don’t talk about teams !!
I hope you’ll have a sunny Sunday today ! Here yesterday was grey, chill (and I didn’t complain, you know why) & today seems to take its revenge ! Aaaghhh ! It’s 26°C outside & don’t think right under the sun, you grill ! See what I meant, now ?!
You are so welcome for the little parcel ! My favorite things are yours too so it was easy to pick !! And I think that “just-because” gifts are as great as occasion-gifts, don’t you think, sweetie ?
The new theme & look here is fantastic ! So easy to navigate ! Great job !
Well, better go now. I have started remodelling my graphic site & I guess that it will be a whole week’s work ! Ugh !
Hugs & kisses !! OXOXOXO

Howdy. I just noticed that your website looks like it has a few code faults at the bottom of these site’s page. I am not sure if anybody is obtaining this same bugginess when searching in your web blog? I’m using a totally various browser than most people, referred to as Opera, to ensure is what can be causing it? I wanted to make sure you know. Thank you for posting some of awesome postings and I will try to come back again with a different browser to check things out.
