You have been busy, Lottie, you and your good man . Bet you're enjoying having YOUR own Shed
My garden does look different, but its still a mess, lots more to do there, just give me another year or two Going to do some serious pruning and clearing over winter, when the leaves have fallen and I can see the trees again. Still, its nice to have a project....

Evening all.... Long day at work but over now, and it's the weekend thankfully..
Got my scan done too.. No big deal- just hope it shows something up when results come thru... Trying to settle my stomach as it feels stuffed, so having a brandy and port. ..(purely for medicinal purposes)

[veggiechicken]

Hiya Trip. Do you drink brandy and port in the same glass? Am I missing something here?

[rustylady]

Brandy and port in the same glass VC - lovely stuff. Purely medicinal of course.

[lottie dolly]

your welcome to the drink TMU,
VC it's projects that keep the grey matter moving,it's a bit like going to work,only we set the pace and hours,according to how we feel,and feel like doing,the rewards and payements are far,far better,thats 1 of the good things about leaf drop,you can see the bones,and what needs amputating,hard work ahead for you then,

[veggiechicken]

Strewth, Rusty, not sure I could mix them............maybe I've never been ill enough
Brandy and ginger, yes, or even port and port, but brandy and port............
Just poured myself another tonic water to recover

I'll need to get a shirtless man in for the amputations I don't do ladders and saws
You're right though, one of the pleasures of retirement is to choose what you do and when you do it, no more clock watching - just being your own boss

Thats odd, Ap, 'cos I thought it would be the other way round - a big brandy and a thimbleful of port

[Tripmeup]

The beauty of it is VC, you can do it whatever way you want

[veggiechicken]

I've just raided the booze store found some cognac and some vintage port but, it seems a shame to open them just to experiment I'll wait until I need something medicinal

[Aberdeenplotter]

a brandy with a little port has the edge taken off the sharpness of the brandy. A port with a little brandy puts a wee edge on the smoothness. Whatever floats your boat
