Disappointed with the Easter weekend?

[Hazel at the Hill]

One thing about miserable, damp weather is that the weeds, love it - if you don't make time for a visit to the allotment soon, Wayne, the weeds will have all grown up....

No prevaricating, that man - get yer hoe out!

[straightline]

I know I am - weather-wise that is.

I booked the Thursday off in the hope that there would be at least one day I could get to the allotment. Alas, withe a combination of visitors weather and other jobs to do, it was not to be.

Looks like I might get a couple of hours on Wednesday evening though...

On the upside, I spent loads of time with my family so it wasn't all bad.

Funnily enough I was going to start a thread on how everybody's weekend went! Sorry for all those who couldn't quite do what was planned, but my whole weekend, from Thursday evening through to Sunday night was, in a word, perfect. Not bad weather, great allotment time. Fantastic time with my kids, all of whom have got really wonderful partners (no fruit loops!) and great time with my OH.

Beautiful weather over the holiday (well I was working until Sunday) Monday went to a giant flea market (over 1500 stalls!) bought some great vintage tools for very little money, Tuesday finishing a garden for a lovely client, weather like summer, but early hours now of Wednesday raining, nice though as I can think of nothing better than being with OH snoozing away to the sound of rain ... mmmmmmmmmmmmmmzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Hi Craig

Yep - both me and hubby were at the con over Easter - great panels including one on why the films get martial arts wrong on purpose, a live orchestra performance of music influenced by or used in science fiction and fantasy, and a brilliant talk on the urban legend of Spring Heeled jack (who I had never heard of but apparently haunted Sheffield at one point). Are you a con goer Craig?
