Afternoon, it’s been a good day in the garden washing’s dry, I’ve weeded, gathered fruit and veg for the freezer and dinner then got rained of. Never mind.

Afternoon All Raining here too Bren, but having said that the sun has just come out! Picked loads of apples yesterday and there are hundreds more on the tree. It's Bank Holiday next Monday (31st) Nicos and I'm on holiday all that week. Not heard anything about the funeral yet, so have no idea how many will be allowed to attend. I hope all went well for Lottie's meeting. Enjoy your Sunday

Afternoon all. Having a good day. Lots of domestic stuff done, then made a raspberry trifle for lunch dessert as a treat. Delicious!

Feeling happy for no particular reason, and that's one of the best happies.

Really glad to hear from you, LD. And glad to hear of your husband's response and that of your other family. I was a bit worried about your husband, as people with dementia can suffer from house moves, but if he's positive, then that is a good sign. Big hug. Mums always try and do their best and you clearly have been doing so for years. Time to think of you now. You and especially your husband need peace of mind and no stress. Good luck.

Good evening all.
Lottie, you are a strong woman and you will get through this.
Mothers cope with so much without complaint.
I hope everything settles down for you.

Spent a good part of the day in the garden..
Watered all the Tom's and peppers in the greenhouse.
Made a batch of soup from my Orange Banana tomatoes.
Have another batch ready to go tomorrow from Berkley Tie Dye
Hope everybody had a good weekend.

Morning all. For the first time in days nice weather this morning. No wind, no rain. After a trip to the opticians we're off to the allotment. Tonight and tomorrow morning I am going to make "Indian chutney" using windfall Bramleys up.

Morning, glad some sort of progress for your life LD, sounds complicated to say the least, keep safe everyone and look after yourselves.

[Snadger]

Morning all. Not much to say really. Just thought I would pop in. Take care all.

[Snoop Puss]

Afternoon all. Not much to say either, for once...

Clients are starting to return to work after their August hols, so it's back to the normal madness for me. Temps have dropped, though due to rise again tomorrow apparently.

Hope you all have a lovely day. Catch you all later.

Well done Lottie-not an experience you want to have had but you got through it xx

Ongoing diy for us.
This morning I had my weigh in and contacted my diet buddy to compare progress. Doing OK but not as well as with the Fast 800.
(Don't want to go so strict just yet with all the yummy summer fruit available)
