Morning Grapeland, happy weekend to all you workers.............need to go give my Toms a good talking to cos nothing else seems to be working.............

[Hazel at the Hill]

Morning all! First round of cleaning done & a pause for a coffee and catch up on what you're all up to.

[Hazel at the Hill]

uh-oh - I have the washing on the line but noticed what I think is a couple of mould patches on a poly/cotton table cloth. Serves me right for letting in sit in the machine with a damp teatowel for too long.

Any tiips on getting the mould off?

[veggiechicken]

Put a glass of wine of top of the mould marks, keep refilling it, after a while the marks will fade.....

Aaaaaaaaaarternoooooon Peeps! Anyone else losing patience with a lousy internet connection?

Sorry to hear about Maisie's health issues. A little sad here today, too, as I lost one of my Batties yesterday.

Just realised the time - no wonder I'm hungry!

Hazel...try soaking the area in the cheapest white distilled vinegar you can find...not diluted...a couple if hours should do the trick

Then if that fails...try VC's trick

Eeeeeeeeeeevenin' Peeps! I came home, on a high, and ready to attack the front jungle. Got as far as resurrecting a poor dying Kerria (yes, a dying Kerria - who'da thunk it!? ) from the clutches of the bramble, marestail, ivy and assorted hedgerow seedings... It'll probably live now - they generally do!

Anyway, I'm pooped, so I'm sat back on my arris. Think I'll put the kettle on ...

Evening everyone, have spent the day trying to sort out the drive, thought I would get it finished today, but noway. ended up riddling the soil to get all the gravel from the drive out. B****** hell its hard work. Have sown 2 packets of seeds, just a race now to see which germinate first the night scented stocks or the weeds

No gardening today but I've had a wonder around looking how much stuffs grown during this weeks rain.

Ta, Nicos - bought some white vinegar when in Morries last night, by chance, so half of it is in a bowl with the offending bits of mouldy tablecloth.

Typical this should happen the day before the very rare occasion that I am entertaining. Sounds grander than it is - friend and family and my family getting together after the 13k fun run tomorrow.

Mum phoned to ask if I had any juice, or are we all drinking tea? I told her we will be drinking a choice of juice and/or tea, of course. As soon as I put the phone down I had to hot-foot it up to Aldi to get (a)juice of various sorts what with having none, and (b) milk as I haven't got enough.

Realised when I got home that I although I can muster 8 glasses to drink from, the motley assortment includes sherry glasses, a couple of tumblers, and two sizes of wine glass. I have mustered a rather more uniform collection of tumblers after a frantic plea to the Next-doors.

[Nicos]

Fingers crossed it works Hazel x

Good luck with tomorrow!

[Bal]

Good luck with the run hazel. I take my hat off to you, I can't even run for the bus

[Bren In Pots]

All the best for tomorrows run Hazel and enjoy your get together after

[Hazel at the Hill]

The tablecloth doesn't look brill, if I'm honest, after the vinegar treatment, but another whizz though the machine might work wonders. Can't do that and iron it for tomorrow before I leave for the start, so I've got a table runner which will have to do.

Folk's will be too busy eating sarnies and drinking tea/juice from an assortment of approximately-the-same-size glasses to notice!

Edit to add pic - getting excited now!
