Thanks Snoop, I needed that. I gave one to a Latvian girl doctor yesterday. She was here in Sheffield on her own at Christmas and her Grandma was taken into hospital on Christmas Eve in Latvia and died on New Year's Day. Makes you glad of friends and family and grateful for welcome hugs. On a lighter note I'm about to make an apple pie

I'm dieting so couldn't eat a real one, but you could always send me a cyber portion of pie - that'd be lovely

Winging it's way to you Thelma - it's all butter shortcrust covered in sugar and Bramley Apples. Best thing of all is zero calories

Good evening all.
Spent part of the day tidying presses and drawers.
Partly because I had been saving €2 coins in a tin.
Opened it before Christmas and OH took it to the bank and got a bank draft.
Searched everywhere for it over the Christmas period with no luck.
Finally found it today in a drawer that I never use.
I owe St Anthony big time.

Good evening, very wet uneventful fishing trip last night, mini lay in - dentist this morning, yearly check up - all good, see you next year!

Decent day at work, little quiet.
Cane home to a crust less quiche! Superb.

Evenin!
Just had someone over to give a quote on 2exterior doors and a small staircase.
You know sometimes you just know they're not going to be the right ones???!
Well...I'm more than happy to be proved wrong but I have a gut feeling that they want to sell us ultra top quality at an ultra top quality price

Next peeps for a quote is next week.

Soup went down a treat...thanks for the suggestion. So much so we couldn't eat it all!!!!!
Will freeze the leftovers so I'm not tempted to sample a little bit at a time throughout the day

Miso Snoop?...thanks...will look into that -always up for suggestions!

Very wet again here this evening, although we had a wonderful orange/pink sunset.

Good evening, had my granddaughter on the phone earlier she was in tears because someone had smashed off a wing mirror from her car, it was in a car park while she was at work, so guess who's going down with her tomorrow morning when she goes to pick up her car and she starts her work at 11.30 so I don't even get a long lie in bed enjoy your day tomorrow and keep smiling

[Florence Fennel]

Good Morning All No frost but it's cold. Have a good day

[rary]

Good morning dry just now, still too dark to say how it will go today, enjoy your day

[Bren In Pots]

Morning its going to be a dry day here so I'll be able to get in the garden again.

[Snoop Puss]

Blue skies everywhere except the bit between us and the sun. Solar panels and batteries going hungry.

Not such a cold night, but not what I'd call warm this morning. Will have to get the range going very soon.

Had a very friendly meeting with the builder last night. What do you do when a really lovely person lets you down? I had my rant the other day. Didn't need another.

Off to another meeting this evening, this one about a proposal for 84 wind turbines in our area.

More of the same today, workwise. So better hop to it.

Oh, surprising how two days of no alcohol after the festive excesses already seems to be helping my crise de foie, as the French would put it.

Hope you all have lovely days. Hope Mrs Rary is doing better.

Good morning peeps!

Little tired today, up late last night baking my first ever cheese cake.. Sugar free of course!

It's remarkably lovely for a first ever attempt.

Have a great day all!

[Thelma Sanders]

Mornings!
I've not long surfaced after a good night's sleep. Couldn't resist weighing myself after 3 days, and 2lb lost already. I know it is only water at this stage but it's always encouraging at the start Onwards and upw….. downwards!

Grey and damp after more overnight rain and just 5C, so apart from cutting some cabbage and swede, don't think anything will get done on the plot for a while. Must start taking a bag of compost round on my trolley, each time I go, ready for the 'grow potatoes in big pots' experiment. It seems to work for the youtube brigade, so fingers crossed.

Have a good'un

[bramble]

Good morning all.
A lovely bright clear morning but just 4 degs.
Off to the hairdressers shortly so that will be a few hours lost.
May get out to the garden this afternoon.
Have a good day all.
