Morning well it looked a nice start to the day but its just started raining and I wanted to build my bean row today and it looks like it might be housework instead now

Morning all


It's pppppppp purrrrrr sisting down here

[Deano's "Diggin It"]

Morning All!

I do wish it was possible to load up reasonable size photos from IPad, the ones from phone are just so tiny.

Gis a mo!

[Jeanied]

Now that is clever, Deano - and I don't even have an IPad

Morning all, Raining heavily in sunny Devon, but at least its warm rain.

[Jeanied]

My settee smells of wet dog and wet human now - just waiting for the wet cat to join us

[Hazel at the Hill]

It's been raining all morning here, but I don't mind as I've had my head down costing a proposal for a Client. Now I've done that, I see that it has stopped raining and I can go out for a lunchtime run without getting wet - hurrah!

Although having been bone-idle on the beach for the past 10 days, I might be stretching the definition of the word 'run' a bit!

[veggiechicken]

A proposal, Hazel??? Should I buy a hat

Been chucking it down here all day - not nice at all
Coffi?

[Tripmeup]

Afternoon all....

Miserable wet morning here too...starting to brighten up now tho....
I haven't done any hardening off of my toms or chillis this year..they are either still inside or else went straight out to one of the greenhouses...(one of which currently has no door)
They all seem to be getting on with it and some are even growing

Well now, the rainy weather has made me get my tool box out and start some more projects indoors. This time it is a broken loo seat - the seat itself has some chips and one of the hinge bolts had broken so time for a new one.
Purchased one in wilkos yesterday - took the old one off today, cleaned all round, tried to fit the new one and the shape was just wrong - no-one likes to touch the porcelain!
Back to the shop, swapped the first new one for a second new one (£8 cheaper!) home and fitted in minutes - looks great - much nicer than the first replacement!

Time taken - an hour and a half overall including shopping!
Hassle factor - probably a 6
Satisfaction factor - definitely an 8

Jeanie i feel a bit lazy compared to you I've done a bit of shopping then spent the last couple of hours watching Harry Potter in 3D

Rain stopped allotment play here too. Done usual house clean but washing is all on the airer and have even resorted to tumbling, as No1 son is going back to uni on Saturday and guess whose clothes are in the wash.
Ordered some veggiemesh to cover a "cage" I bought last Autumn but the netting is so poor I thought I'd replace it with veggiemesh to keep the butterflies out.
Time for a cup of tea I think.

Just noticed my max min thermometer read a low last night of 11.3 deg, that's the first time its been over ten for months.

[Florence Fennel]

Evening All, anyone about? Drizzling here so no more toms being potted on tonight.

[Bren In Pots]

I'm here Flo just drinking a mug of tea and wishing the custard tart I've just taken out of the oven was coo enough to eat.
