Oh and by the way you will need to bear to starboard/right at some point in your journey.

Potty

[Hazel at the Hill]

Of course - just turn left and keep straight on

Oh and by the way you will need to bear to starboard/right at some point in your journey.

Potty

Looking at those detailed navigations that you have, I'm at about the 'comfort stop' point in your journey - I'll have the kettle on too. If you overshoot far and miss me, Bins will pick you up, give you a bacon sarnie and send you on a sharp left to reach Potty.

Nutters! (see above few posts)

VC, those crates will last you for years. I watched four guys trying to dismantle some, once. They're pretty indestructible, and take for ever to rot, too.

pulled into garage yesterday and a 'very nice man' in sh**l uniform asked if i'd like him to put the petrol in for me! Never had that happen before....old-fashioned service, he even offered to check the oil and water

The other day I was watching a family of buzzards circling around at the lottie and this morning was watching two greenfinches on the seed feeder..........and even better, baby robin sat on the table being fed his breakfast .........

... till the Buzzard comes back ...

[binley100]

Naw he's at the lottie ...........'tis the sparrowhawk we have to worry about at home ...

I shouldn't laugh at this really but they do, so I think it's ok! I'm friends with a couple who have been married a very long time and they're both, shall we say, a little bored. Instead of having affairs they've decided to go about taking petty revenge on each other. Yesterday she found her cake tin cupboard filled with jars of nails and screws and he found his pyjama button holes had been sewn up just enough that he couldn't get the buttons through.

Remind anyone else of Roald Dahl's 'The Twits'?

Now that made me really giggle! (No, I haven't read the book.) It's got to be better than bitching at each other, like my Folks do! Hilarious!

I'm thinking of Michael Douglas and the fish in the oven

Finally submitting the horrid essay Ain't gonna win any prizes, but I'm not thinking about it any more!

I've finally caught up at the plot, spent every spare, exhausting moment I had there till it was done. Only thing left to plant out is leeks, I never thought I would get there this year, it's such a good feeling.

Plus, I've just booked a long weekend in Ireland at the end of the month, thanks to our amazing Son for covering for us caring for Dad, he is such a godsend

My clever daughter ........

omg that's come out huge.........

Hearing that something which was most likely life-threatening to a friend's partner, in fact isn't. The relief and joy is incredibly humbling, if you know what I mean. I seem to have a leak in my face somewhere.
