About ten minutes after my last post it started chucking it down. Light rain/drizzle now.

Morning, its raining here so I went to the supermarket in the car instead of taking my trolley, I'm sure it takes longer to drive and park up. Anyway home again armpitted my GH toms but that's it for gardening today I think.
Make the best of your day

Pleasant morning here, bit of sun and a lot of cloud, no breeze, bet it won't stay like it for long, grass will need cutting again and there's the last of the old apple tree stumps to shift, better get the safety gear on as the chain saw will be required. Stay safe all and enjoy the day.

Good morni g all.
Sunny with some cloud around but its dry.
Off out to walk 8n the park as rain is forecast for later in the day.
Hoping to get some gardening done later.
Enjoy your day and stay safe.

Morning all.

Housework done and off shopping soon.

I large plant to shift to the front garden later and if it stays dry I will probably play with my chainsaw. I'm impressed with the way my wildflower meadow is looking at the top of the garden and I find even the grass flower heads are decorative. Deffo one of my better ideas and the bees are loving it.

Bit Autumnal ain't it?
( well - it is here!)

My outdoor tomatoes are finally starting to flower!...thing is 'he who shalln't be named' accidentally jumbled up the seedlings and their labels so I'm not quite sure what I have growing!!!!!
Looks like it is 2gardeners delight and 17 pineapple tomatoes...I was hoping it was the other way round! The flowers (and plants) do look very, very different.

We had the roofer over yesterday and, weather permitting, he's going to sort out a leak in the roof tomorrow . Can't normally tell there is a problem -it depends on the wind direction. Bit dangerous cos when it does pour in it puddles on the wooden staircase!
And yes-he wore a mask!... good lad

I was planning on going shopping today but decided to put it off another week -we can make do .

Cor blimey Bones!... that was an early start!!!- bet it was lovely?!!

Have fun playing with your chainsaws Burnie and Snadge! -it's one of my OHs favourite boyztoyz

See ya later peeps...

[Nicos]

Bet you see loads more butterflies too Snadge?- that's what we noticed when we created ours.

Afternoon, all.

Hot again. Thunderstorms forecast for this afternoon and evening. One forecast says not much rain, the other says a lot. Hope the first one is right as a load of concrete is being poured on the garage roof, which is pitched...

Anyway, not much news. Still deaf in one ear, that's four weeks now. Still got lots of work to do. Got one cat and one dog for company down in the basement. Much cooler and quieter down here than up near where the builders are hard at it.

So, on with the show. Catch you later. Have a good one meanwhile.

Morning all.

Still dry here. It got very overcast and heavy earlier, but now I can see blue sky between the clouds. Went out for an early walk, then made some hummus with yellow split peas for lunch.

My blood donor session on Sunday has been changed from the local school to a venue (Holiday Inn) within a stone's throw of the lockdown boundary, so with regret I've cancelled it.

Hopefully I can reschedule it later and safer.

It never really stopped raining/drizzling today so no gardenning. This afternoon I got the sewing machine out and made 4 cloth face masks. The first 2 were flowery, but I realised there wasn't a cat in hells chance my husband would wear one, so did a couple of non-flowery ones. I'll keep them in the car.

[bramble]

Good evening all.
We had a lovely sunny day even though rain had been forecast.
An hours walk in the park then sat in the rose garden.

Spent the afternoon in the garden and greenhouse.
Potted 6 tomato armpits into their final pots.
Tied in the tomatoes, and cut the bottom leaves off,
Gave them all a feed of tomirite.
The peppers are starting to ripen.

Off to make the dinner now.
Have a good evening all.

Early start for me - just incase the roofer arrives at stupido'clock.fr
I did ask for an approx time and he shrugged...oh well!
Good thing is that it's not raining, nor windy!

Time for a cuppa me thinks......and get a washerload on the go....
