Well, some of them are *blush*

Mind you, at 70 I never thought of myself that way, until the Gov insisted that people of my age are.

Good evening peeps...Hope everyone is all well.

Evening everybody apologies I have not been posting for the last 2 weeks but I have been away on holidays n the Canary Islands - Fuerteventura. I never post when I’m away as it is only an indicator that the house could be empty.
Anyway I got back on Tuesday night by scheduled Ryanair flight, with full service on the flight. We had experienced lockdown from midnight last Saturday until when we left on Tuesday evening. It was very strange and what as even stranger was the sun seemed to go into self isolation as well, the clouds came over and the temperatures dropped to around 20’C from previously in the mid 20’s.

Anyway we all got home safe and are in self isolation but 5hat doesn’t mean I’m able to do lots around the garden or house as I still have my normal day job to do which I can do from home.

Today I managed to get out and cut the grass, did a bit of tidying up in the garden, topped the curly kale that was starting to go to seed and pulled off a load of the lower leaves and put them in the composter.
I sowed my first spuds of the year, 12 x type Nicola in my poly tunnel. Still having bits of frost,

I hope everybody on here are all healthy and well, stay safe, stay indoors and away from people if not necessary and keep those hands washed.
Also please keep drinking warm/hot drinks and keep sipping water.

Like Thelma I think some of them are but not in this house I think its one of those myths, they are old so they must get up early, its like that other one, "an understanding wife" of course there was a probability of grass being in my shoes, I had just cut the grass, and how was I to know there was some on my shoes right off to make a coffee it might put her in a good, nah its just a cup of coffee not a wonder drink

Ever since I stopped work I've avoided going out early mornings, - the roads are usually full of commuters and school traffic.
The roads may look a little quieter now................but still not enough to make me go shopping at 8am. Unless there are yellow stickers at that time, I'm not going.

No chance of yellow stickers. Nothing left to stick them on.

That's it then - I'll live off whatever I can find at the back of the cupboard, in the depths of the freezer and The Little Shop at the Bottom of the Garden.
