      • Morning all.

        A bit more rain in the night. Enough to collect briefly in puddles! Will go off and do a bit of gardening this morning and then work this afternoon.

        Have a great day, everyone.

        • Good Morning All
          Just waiting for my Grory hop delivery with no barking Frank today, my GG is going to see Coldplay so Frank has to be boarded elsewhere for an overnight stay.
          Cloudy again here with what looks like rain on the way.
          Have a good day

              I completely agree with you about the lack of patience with delivery drivers, both my wife and I have mobilety problems and at times I think they are trying to break the door down when we are not there instantly, but I believe that the delivery drivers have to make a certain delivery quota, hence the lack of patience, so the problem lies with the company but the driver will pay for the loss, which also accounts for them speeding, the companies are looking for the maximum output in the minimum time and cost, what you might call greed.

                • Good morning.

                  It's cold here again. A chilly 9°C at the moment and forecast to dip to an even chillier 6°C tonight.

                  The breadmaker is chugging away and the washer is on it's spin cycle and still Mr GF sleeps on! 😴

                    GF we've not had a overnight temp that low for a while its usually around 9-10c in my GH, hope your plants pick up ok.

                    A bit of potting on but that's it for gardening today I think plenty of other things to do instead.

                    Enjoy your day

                      Bright and blue. Solar panels hard at work, but I am not. Better get a move on. Loads to do today.

                      Have a great day, everyone.

                        Warm and sunny here.
                        Routine bloods this morning and another outing with a GG this afternoon.
                        I've made a cream filled Victoria sandwich cake for family tomorrow.

                        • Good morning all.
                          A dull start to the day but the cloud is beginning to break up.
                          A trip to town this morning.
                          We are away on holidays in just over a week so I have a list of bits to pick up.
                          Hopefully I will get a bit of gardening done in the afternoon.
                          Have a good day all,

                            • Hi All,
                              Good day to you all Sunny and Bright here in Warwickshire, rary - I cannot imagine what people such as yourself feel having made it to the door after a knock only to find no one there, frustrating is a word that comes to mind but all deliveries should be made by law to leave a Del Attempted Card, not much use if you get a letter,e-mail or a phone call telling you there was an attempt but no answer.....

                              As for the seller of the book that was damaged it looks like he may have tried to pull a fast one by refunding my money for the price of the book only immediately, this in turn prevented me from starting a claim for postage costs ? ? After 1hr+ on the phone to a couple of EBay reps they enabled this to go forward and the seller now has 3-Days to refund the postage cost inc if he wants the book returned to the US as he then has to claim himself against the courier.

                              Netflix Recommendation:- Godless I have been watching this series and although for the main part women centric characters it is very good IMPO. If you like westerns this should be right up your alley the only thing that lets it down in my opinion is the fake flames they actually ruin what would otherwise be good TV or Movies.....


                              Well I'll be out in the garden after this little jaunt it is actually starting to look like a garden again, just needs more tenderness and feeding of the soil...

                              Geoff.

                              • Good evening all.
                                All shopped out and an empty purse but it was enjoyable.

                                More flowers planted out, nearly finished now.

                                Nicos, indeed, once all is in order the fun can begin.
                                A different holiday for us this time around.
                                We are going with our daughter, her hubby and teenage daughter.
                                We are taking our car on the ship from Dublin to Cherbourg
                                Staying in a mobile home in Brittany, nearly your next door neighbour.
                                Hope you're enjoying your time in Yorkshire.

                                Have a good evening all..

                                And when your back stops aching,
                                And your hands begin to harden.
                                You will find yourself a partner,
