*yawn…..

NTG must have had a late night last night sleeping on like this.
Won’t disturb him - he needs his beauty sleep

[Nicos]

Gosh gf….you should write them all down.
Do you remember the TV series ‘Tales of the Unexpected’ ….the scriptwriters could bounce off your ideas!!…you’d make a fortune!

I just dread to think what a psychiatrist would make of my weird sub conscious.
Halfway through chopping orange, lemon and grapefruit peel now. Having a break and a coffee.

I've put the kettle on for a fresh brew, Nicos.

There's a thunderstorm here and heavy rain. It's very windy too, so hopefully it will blow away soon.

MH my mum got the gp letter for the flu jab & it said in the letter to phone the surgery after 10am to make the appointment for it,she phoned in the afternoon when it’s less busy. Mum had a blood test appointment yesterday at the surgery,there was three other patients waiting which was paranormal to see there,usually there’s average twenty people. I was waiting for mum & I heard another woman at the reception trying to make a follow up appointment with the nurse she usually sees for continual care,the receptionist said that nurse is off until December & she doesn’t have that months appointments yet. I wondered whys the nurse having so long off,then I thought there’s probably only one doctor in the building,the others must have a month off,is that because of isolating after going abroad? We had to go to a & e to see a doctor the other week,daughter had a swelling on her knee needed antibiotics,could only get a phone call from our GP,I said to the receptionist a doctor needs to see it,she agreed go to a & e to have it looked at. Have a great day all,it’s nice we’ve got the sun at the mo

Thanks MH...although I think we should all agree that NTG should drink the cold stewed one!
Do you think I should sit down now?

[mothhawk]

Ay Nicos, sit down lass. No doubt Nick's at the allotment and forgotten the time....

Sun's out now, thunder's gone

[nick the grief]

nope I was up at sparrows fart this moring but I've been busy busy busy ... you know what us men are like. All this talk of battery tools reminded me I needed to charge the batteries on my drill so I dug the charger out and popped those on. Been indulging in my other pastime of short wave listeneing this morning as I'd not had a listen for a couple of weeks and as its been bucketing down I didn't fancy going out side.

been sorting the seeds out for next year and I was going to pop a couple of trays cut and come again lettuces for Mrs G I've some big trays about 2ft x 4ft and so they should be OK and I was going to see if I could find all my old mushroom trays to put some in those too.

Right I'm in need of a refill

Afternoon all.

Sorry I'm so late. Woke up feeling a bit low for some reason, so thought I'd chivvy the smiles on their way and get on with some work to settle myself.

Had quite a productive day in the end. But I should have dropped in earlier, I'm parched. A cup of tea would have done me good. I'll put the kettle on for an afternoon cuppa. Peanut butter cookies in the tin... That's another thing that improved my mood.

Hope you all had a lovely day, with a nice evening to come.

That's a big one Nick, size does matter! You've got the iced version to dispose of first. Sun is shining here now after lots of rain. I'm stealing a march on Saturnalia and starting to wrap presents! Have a lovely evening. Thanks Bren and Nicos, glad to be back

Advent calendar! I'm sure I 've seen one advertised somewhere with a different miniature of gin for every day ..... or did I dream it in one of the mad dreams?

Mine’s a Milka chocolate one with old fashioned chocolate shapes like toy steam trains, 1920’s cars, bells, wreaths, snowmen, grandfather clock , Xmas tree….I love trying to guess them
