Afternoon, boy it feels chilly today. Bramble I’m ashamed to say i did no ironing yesterday and none again today!!!
I’m off for a coffee to heat myself up, have a great day everyone x

[Nicos]

I’ve hidden my ironing in a spare bedroom Jay!…completely forget about it until someone on here mentions it
Its only bedding so no hurry- I’ve plenty spare

Good afternoon all, and a very rainy one it is too.

Afternoon all.

Very late on parade today. Not sure I made it at all yesterday.

Mr Fennel has a serious chocolate habit, Flo. Me, I'll eat most sweets, though not the ones that Mr GF likes. And I am most definitely a milk chocolate fan. No dark chocolate for me if I can help it.

I used to slice tomatoes top to bottom but now I like them cut across, especially if they're home-grown and I've got lots, so I don't feel guilty about giving the first and last slices to the dog.

As for news here. Well, I had a big argument with some Spanish cops yesterday. And won. Which I and especially they did not expect. Since then, I've been head down, clacking away at the keyboard doing very tedious work. Probably just as well, as it has calmed me down. I did get a bit aeriated. Mind you, if I hadn't, I think they'd have just shown me the door rather than take me seriously.

Have a lovely evening, everyone.

Well done Snoop on your battle with the police…if they are similar to the French ones, then you were very brave.
Well done indeed, especially as you knew you were correct
Bet you feel very relieved now that’s sorted x

[Snoop Puss]

One thing sorted out of a long list, Nicos. An assortment, I suppose you might call it.

[Nicos]

Variety?…oh joy!

Good evening all.A bright and sunny day here with temp at 16 degs.
Spent the afternoon in the garden
I topped up my many containers of daffodils with fresh soil.
Dead headed the dahlias and sweetpeas and saved the seeds, sweetpeas are almost finished.
Trimmed a lot of leaves from the tomato plants and picked lots of cherry tomatoes.
Got two lots of laundry out and dried.
All in all quite a productive day.

Evening

Apart from the odd mint and a mini Magnum (Aldi's) in summer that's it for sweets. Its probably down to the mountain I ate as a kid when my Mum worked for a sweet company, I'm sure she bought out the staff store each Friday.

[Florence Fennel]

It's rained all day again here. I was hoping to clear my tomato plants this afternoon, but it will have to be tomorrow.
The Ginger Tom came back today, but he clearly doesn't trust me any more. He ate the chicken I had saved for him, but just inside the doorway and then skidaddled sharpish! Cats obviously have good memories.
