  • Good morning.

    An awful night's sleep. I awoke at 2 am, thought it was morning, and could not drop back off again. At 8 am when the tree fellers started up, cutting down the main trunk (totem pole), I felt shattered. Mr GF must be even deafer than I thought without his hearing aids, as he slept through the first hour of the noise of the chainsaw. I did a grory hop yesterday, so the fridge looks happy again. There are 8 litres of milk in there, so we shouldn't run out for a good few days. I am struggling to think of something I'd like to eat for dinner today. A distinct lack of inspiration.

    It's 12°C and drizzling at the moment but there is a possibility that the sun might come out to play later.

    Good luck with the treatment, Jay.

      • Good morning all. Sunny here and its 13 degs.
        Grory hop and a visit to the post office this morning.
        Then having my nails done as it's coming near our holidays.
        Collecting grandson from school this afternoon and so that's my day spoken for.

        Jay, Good luck with your treatment and I hope your day goes well,

        Snoop, I hope you get the rain that's forecast,

        It's a pain when you have a sleepless night, you just cant function the next day.

        Take care all and have a good one.

        And when your back stops aching,
        And your hands begin to harden.
        You will find yourself a partner,
        In the glory of the garden.

            • Afternoon All I've been in the garden clearing summer bedding. Now enjoying a cup of tea and a sit down. It's looking like rain now, so that's probably all I'll get done today.
              I've seen loads of chocolates going cheap lately, but the use by date is November 24, so no good for my Saturnalia goody bags. Have yours got a longer date GF?

                      I dare say I will.😁😁 However, if not, best before dates are completely ignored here......within reason. (What is reason???)

                        • Mornin n’alln’all

                          Another bad night sleeping so it’s a late start for me.
                          Looks like we have the wind and drizzle today, so not sure what gardening will get done!

                          We have to collect our pneumonia vaccines at some point today so apart from that, not quite sure!

                          Anyway, enjoy your day peeps

                          • Morning
                            According to 3 weather forecasts its supposed to be fine here we just got the laundry out as it rained. Don't you just hate that.

                            Plan for today is sorting out the GH, removing finished plants and general tidying.

                            Enjoy your day

                              • Good morning all.

                                Commiserations Nicos, I'm another who has had a bad night's sleep. Awake at 4.30am, ended up doing sudokus on my phone. We can't blame the full moon....it's a new one.

                                Why do you have to collect your vaccines, Nicos? What do you do with them then?

                                I've just had a text reminder to my phone that Mr GF, his brother and myself have got our flu jabs tomorrow at our surgery. Last year the doctor stuck a pneumococcal vaccine in my other arm while I was there for the flu jab.

                                Time to get something done now.
