A very Good Mornin' from my dark patch of the east mids .....
Had my 'flu jab at work yesterday, and my arm is quite stiff and sore today ..... I'm not allowed to fuss though, as I see all the 'oldies' waiting in line to have theirs - and they all leave happily nattering to each other, as if they're at the local social-do .....
Have a triffic Tuesday...!

I'm classed as in the 'at risk' group - asthma, old bird - but I've never had the offered flu jab. I wonder each year, should I, shouldn't I. My concern is, how does it actually help because it's based on old flu info? Or is that not the case?
Today I shall be clearing a 4 X 4m raised bed of a ton of crystal lemon cake plants that produced tons of flowers and fruits, the fruits were too bitter to eat ... the bees were very happy
Grey sky here. Off the the allotment in a bit to start digging over beds and sowing green manure and then transferring plants from the old plot to my new plot. Still not got a clue where I want them to go yet.
Drizzle...lovely drizzle!
I'm so thrilled to see the lawn slowly turning back to green.
Strange how it goes through an orange stage first.
It does make you wonder...anyone know?....where do the worms etc go when the soil is dry down to at least 18".
I know worms curl up to retain moisture - but what about insects etc?
The hens are certainly scratching up loads again...and loving it!
More domestics for me.
OH got up early and has a bœuf bourguignon in the oven gently cooking away!
Watermelon for brekkies again ..yum...
Flu injection? Yeh, were supposed to have them too. We have the prescription come through the post. We buy it at the chemist then find a local nurse to give it to us.
Thing is, we often don't bother, although I know we should!
Hope everyone has a great day

Same breakfast as most days here - 3-egg cheese omelette with cayenne pepper, cooked in butter.
Interesting on the flu jab! How many times have you had (actual) flu in your adult lifetime? I can only recall three times - that's jolly good odds, erm, I think!
Morning all im off out later and really should be thinking about preparing dinner so there's something on the table for later but I can't be bothered this morning another cup or coffee is required, anyone else need a top up?
I've had proper flu just once in early childhood and once about 30 years ago.
Both times lasting the full 2 weeks.
Good odds yes, but once you're vulnerable you really shouldn't run the risk * smacks own wrist.
And yup- I'm on the vulnerable list so will be a good girl this year and take my own health seriously!

Morning all, been up a while but had a message at 7.20. am from my poorly friend M. She was stuck in her bedroom!
Got hubby up and she was rescued in due course, he had to break in though, the lock had seized up.
Because the hubby had carers there is a key box outside, thank goodness.
Just had breakfast and 2nd cup of tea - phew, what a start
Nothing planned today thank goodness
Have a great day everyone

Morning a but dull and misty early one but it soon cleared, today I'm hoping it'll be dry enough to pick my saves pea pods otherwise I'll leave them until later.
Nicos I love veg omelettes usually made using leftover veg that we've froze, nice with salad and sourdough bread.
