Morning
It looks like being a dry sunny day here. The robins still coming in and out of the lean-too so the nests not abandoned like previous years.
No real plans for the day apart from I'm having my hair cut later then calling in at the library on the way back.
enjoy your dayLocation....East Midlands.

Sleet/ snow CG? Just goes to show!
As hoped, today was the last call by the nurses. Even Hibou has been confused as to why our alarm has gone off so early for the past 10 days. She seems to think it’s her roll to wake us up!
We have drizzle at the moment so if it eases up I’ll do a bit more on the gravel path next to the patio. It’ll need scraping to one side soon to lay an electricity cable, so I’d rather be tugging out the weeds whilst they are easy to see. Damp is good - they’ll pull out easier!Last edited by Nicos; 22-03-2024, 07:24 AM."Nicos, Queen of Gooooogle" and... GYO's own Miss Marple

Good morning. I rang up the surgery this morning at 8am for Mr GF. He has no rash, but his back is really itching. He has had this before and has had cream for it but I've none left and it is not on repeat prescription. When the surgery answered I discovered they have implemented a new system. Supposedly while you are waiting (I was number 42 in the queue) you can press 8 and when it gets to your number in the queue they will ring you back. I was, to say the least, sceptical but 20 minutes later they rang back. I explained the problem. The doctor will ring us later today and either prescribe more cream over the phone or if he thinks it's necessary to see his non-existant rash he'll ask us to call in. Isn't it marvellous when a new system actually works!
It is windy here today but the sun is trying to find gaps in the clouds and keeps peeping out.Last edited by greenishfing; 22-03-2024, 08:10 AM.

I've just had my brother in law on the phone to say he loved the bread pudding and the clotted cream ice cream. I had to smile as he's convinced himself that it must be "healthy" as it's got dried fruit but hasn't got butter in it! Maybe now is not the time to mention the sugar and all the sugar and fat in the ice cream.

Morning
Not a very nice day out heavy rain/hail hitting the windows looks like its here for the day, so no gardening.
GF that's a good system at your surgery hopefully it will be implemented nation wide, its much better than listening to the countdown of were you are in the queue.

Morning all. Morning Bren and CG.
Sun shining through the gaps between big thick clouds this morning. Could do anything by the look of it. Though rain isn't due till Monday. Snow a small possibility. Certainly frosts, which will be a shock to the birds.
Not much else to report. More of the usuals. But no news is better than bad news. So no complaints from me.
Have a great day, everyone.

Good morning all.
Bren, this is more or less the recipe I used for the bread pudding, but I made less.

I was impressed with that new appointment system. The doctor did ring later and send a prescription to the chemist for Mr GF.
When I awoke, an hour or so ago the sun was streaming through a tiny gap in my bedroom curtains but since then we've had a heavy shower of driving rain. It's cold. I'll get up when the central heating has done it's job.
I've dilly dallied enough now, I really ought to get up......soon.
