Morning all - off to the lottie later after I pick up a reel for the small strimmer - stage 2 of the pipe trenching beckons. Think sun is on the way.

Good morning Folks its warm but damp here, or should that be damp warm here At my sons waiting for someone to come and do a repair,time between nine and one, so looks like I am not going to be able to take my wife anywhere to let her spend money on me if this workman comes early enough I hope to do some work in the garden, as I have a couple of Rowan trees to take away as OH doesn't like them, (I think I read some where that witches either don't like or can't walk past Rowan trees and those two are in the entrance to the back grass area where I put up a washing line which is rarely used as her feet get wet with the grass) I think I will monitor this, for she definitely bewitched me. Well have a good day whatever you are doing and enjoy the weather what ever you get, remember there's many a body would be grateful to get out whatever the weather.

Mornin n'all n'all!

Wish it were Wednesday Susie...then I'd have an extra day

Need to nip to the shops soon to get a few things, but apart from that, it's a crafting day again for me....

Have a great day peeps, sorry I'm not around much at the moment......

Slightly confused here Nicos it is Wednesday?

[Nicos]

Ha!...yes indeed it is!

Phew.....got an extra day then

Te he.....

[Jay22]

Morning all, yes I don't get that either GL, just had to check it was Wednesday!

Well it's humid and damp this morning. Sun is trying to show his face but having a hard time. Going for a walk today so hopefully the rain stays away. Hope you all have a great day...off for a cuppa, anyone want one?

[rary]

I will have a cuppa Jay, is there any biscuits or home baking to go with it
I am sitting here bored with nothing to do I like to keep active, even if it's just dodging housework

[SusieG]

Rary, I've made coffee if that'll do you ~ and just nibbling (well, scoffing really!!) a fig roll biscuit .......trouble is, I can't just eat one ~ I have to ration them out !!! So you're welcome to some, so I don't snaffle them all .....!!!!!

Plenty of housework going begging here too if you're at a loose end.....!!!!!!!!

I've got my corms planted out..!!!

[rary]

Thanks Susie, a wee cuppa would go down fine I know what you mean about the fig rolls, I am the same with jaffa cakes but be ing strong willed I can limit myself to one a day, when I am tempted to go and open an other packet I just repeat to myself, one packet a day should be enough. But I must tell you I can't do housework I think I am allergic to it, as I break out in a cold sweat when ever my wife brings the subject up, so thanks but the ends aren't that loose

[rary]

Should also have asked what corms have you been plantding

[Bren In Pots]

Afternoon i don't mind how dreary the day started off, we've now got sunshine
You can eat jaffa cakes Rary they contain the two things I don't really like and that's jelly and chocolate, give me a plain digestive every time

[Nannysally99]

Afternoon all, sun has managed to come out - just.
Going to a friends 'conservatory opening afternoon tea.'Just another excuse for a get together really. Our poorly friend M is the guest of honour and there will be a red ribbon for her to cut lol.
Alas, we will Not be drinking prosecco as M is not allowed to drink in her condition - sounds like she's pregnant doesn't it - she's not lol
Garden is starting to look bare as more crops finish. Sad really.
Have a great afternoon, will let you know how it went

[Nicos]

Fig rolls???...mmmmm * drools.....

Well- I shouldn't complain cos I've just been scoffing baklava.
Why on earth is it soooo addictive???

just checked...fig roll = 70 calories ....and baklava =95 calories EACH!!

* sucks nuts from teeth for the next couple of hours.....

[rary]

Back home now, the job that had to be done at my sons will now be done on Friday, if we are lucky, good British companies, ha, no matter some good came of it OH has now cleaned the conservatory, and bedroom why she didn't leave there for the two of us to do I don't know, and Bren I like plain digestive biscuits also especially with cheese and black current jam, now that's nice, Nicos what are baklava, oh and calories?
Hope you enjoy your afternoon NS, will need to go and collect 4 grandsons shortly see you all later

Afternoon all,what a hot day,DR says it IS just a virus,and it should play itself out by 2 or 3 weeks ,if not go back,had a session in the hospital this morning at MR appointment,even she thought i had a chest infection,never mind,my clock is still ticking,like the sound of that sieve gagget for the mixer,i shall have to look into that one,the last 2 lots have been forced through the little fine sieve with a wooden spoon,hard work on the arms,but very nice jam,

Stage 2 of the pipe trench only took an hour or so as a better method of working was discovered and we had an extra body - note him wiping the sweat away and 2 of the group laughing whilst they watched him at work.
