Evening folks! Hope we are all well?

Cold today, wasn't it? Not too bad on my long run this morning once I'd got the blood circulating, but I was glad to get home for a hot bath. But it's 10miles ticked off and under my belt (as it were).

Just getting baking ingredients out to make Trip's bananana choc cake, and found that I haven't replaced the bicarb of soda after using it in the abbey crunch biccies the other day. So I'm just nipping up to A!di - anyone want anything bringing in?

Evening all

It's jus' one foot in front of the other, Lisa, one foot in front of the other.

Evening all...

Nice fresh day today and I got a good bit done..
Finally collected the replacement tube for my T5 growlight yesterday. So put that together this morning and set it up in a temporary manner on 2 paint tins...They sure throw out some light
Put some of my chilli plants under it to see if they flourish...Just need someone to tell me how long they leave them on each day now

Sowed some more chilli seeds and sowed my tomato seed in the garage in my sand propagator..
Then did some weeding..
And finally. I made some Twirl banana cake and some chocolate muffins with pecan nuts...

Time for a sit down...hope the cake turns out OK Hazel

Evening all. Have had a usual busy Saturday getting various jobs done. Been to my mom and dads to get some stuff sorted ready to drop off at the local charity shop on Monday.
Have also managed to shift some of my house plant cuttings over to my mom and dads to make room for my veg seeds.
Have a good evening everyone

good evening Folks, it was a nice day here today, and the sun was out and temp. was quite high it hit 6c felt almost summery, if out of the wind, like Hazel I went for a run, but as OH was accompanying me, was not allowed to go too fast, and as she felt it cold I had to turn the heater up a bit, as it doesn`t use petrol I was happy to oblige. We went to a G.C. where I bought more plants for cuttings, and as these plants are much bigger than the ones that you get from b&q etc. well worth the money 10 for £10.0, have been out in the greenhouse potting them on into 4in. pots and will now wait a week or so before taking cuttings. Well I wish You all a good night and enjoy the remainder of the weekend, I am off to see if OH will make a cup of tea, I would do it myself, but feart I might burn the water. Goodnight

In the oven as we speak, Trip.

......like Hazel I went for a run, but as OH was accompanying me, was not allowed to go too fast, and as she felt it cold I had to turn the heater up a bit, as it doesn`t use petrol I was happy to oblige.

Don't worry, Rary, I wasn't going too fast either.

[Hazel at the Hill]

I was going to unwind the string, but I am reminded that 'sleep is a vital part of the training plan' so will turn in now.

Morning all, up early again
Tea anyone?

[Bigmallly]

Morning Sal'n'all from a bitterly cold Nestland. Anyone venturing out will need 2 layers of everything.......................Have a good Sunday.

[Florence Fennel]

Morning Sal and Mal Drizzle here but not sure how cold it is because I'm still tucked up waiting for my tea. Full English is only for three this morning so plenty of time

[Aberdeenplotter]

Morning from a very shiney Aberdeen. Frosty out but I don't mind that as I'll be in here .

Supposed to be having the weekend off decorating but the front door facings and surrounds are all that need painting to finish the front hall so I may well do that just to keep my hand in. Will be out shopping later so paint will have a chance to dry when we are out.

Bathroom touching up to do then the kitchen which is getting the works and that will be it. Finito

Hope I'm not boring you

[Aberdeenplotter]

Meant to say, anyone use Daz Go Pods. Better half fed up of powder sticking in the tray in washing machine so decided to give these a try. Well I'm having first shottie and have a load of towels on. distinct lack of instructions on the box though. Had a gurgle and from reviews discovered that you just chuck a pod into the drum (two if it's a mucky wash) and then set the program and that's it. Anyone else use them? Am I just thick or is there a lack of instruction for use? Be careful how you answer

Morning all. Well, a little watery sunshine and high clouds! Very few 'household jobs' to do today, no supper to cook since I am taking FiL over to BiL later. So .... yes! Leg in a pant and off to the plot for a LOT of work. I shall be taking a flask and snacks, my bare root strawbs to plant (thank you GYO mag for the freebies) and shall spend the day communing with nature and doing satisfying stuff. Enjoy your day too and trust that it will not be all housework.
