    Week 3 challenge completed
    And my week 3 challenge of for the first time ever posting 1000 posts on a Forum had been completed and then "un-completed " or "dis-completed" by the nasty POST SHAVING system...

    So I have to re-complete my challenge with some posts before Sunday
    I dream of a better tomorrow, where chickens can cross the road and not be questioned about their motives....

    • Week 3 Challenge completed The car is in the garage - I'm sure its grown since the last time it was in there One very large zinc-ish planter had to be evicted into the garden - looks a bit stupid with nothing in it - more like a big wastebin All the other clutter has been squeezed up to the back of the garage - with a narrow alleyway to the freezer. Hope its wide enough for me!!

      • Well my week 3 challenge is gonna have to brave the elements & get down to the lottie. I've got an empty dalek that needs filling up with rotted chippings..................I'm not as brave as Shen who goes down in all weathers........He'll be telling us he does it in his kilt next............

            • Second grandaughter decided to join in the knitting instructions. Got ger a pair of needles and we're up and running if a little tentatively.
              They don't know quite have the hang of it yet but already they ambitiously want to knit hats scarves and gloves.
              We'll see how long the enthusiasm lasts.

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

              • Still to cold to defrost those two freezers in the shed so challenge this week is to go through all the old greeting cards I have been hoarding for years and years. Sort and get rid of all the old tapes and cd's we no longer use and make our box room back into a decent living space.

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

                  I remember buying one of these - a green plastic thingy with slightly rounded projections - it was about half a tray size - I gave it to my daughter when I gave her my greenhouse many years back - wonder if she's still got it? Nice job though - well done

                            • I seem to have lost a few weeks there somewhere. 1. Taking the daughter and nag to the showjumping comp. 2. Backing up the horsefloat several times a day (and not taking out one fence...it was close, but it didn't happen.) 3.

                              When does week 3 finish? A date please not today or yesterday, as I then have to think about which day you're all having first.

                              If it finishes today (here) or tomorrow (here) then it will have to be: Fold up soft float cover. It's enormous and hard to manage when it's spread out, and the cats like to hide in it as well!
                              And maybe to make it a real challenge................put the Christmas tree away.

                              • The Week finishes at midnight on Sunday, starts 1 second later on Monday. So you can use your own calendar to decide what day you're on
