[Greenleaves]

Morning All

Mix of sun and cloud here but definitely cooler.

Shopping today

Enjoy your Wednesday

[Cadalot]

Morning All - Gray and cooler here as well, did my morning nip out in the PJ's as usual to check on things and water in the Space Saver Greenhouse. but decided I would leave the door closed and the Coldframe shut today unless the sun comes out.

Have a good one everyone

Morning all, mix of sun and cloud here too, no wind either which is a bonus. Spent a couple of full days on the lotty enjoying the sun but have a guest arriving today so started a ciabatta loaf last night and now have it resting at the next stage.

Enjoy the day

So page 404, a number that will eventually take over from 13 as unlucky (error 404 not found)

Right, that's enough silliness.

Brightish today but a chilly start.

Hope today is as productive as yesterday. Got absolutely masses of paid work out of the way.

Not much other news. Half-price chicken/rabbit runs arrived yesterday from Amazon. Mr Snoop says they weigh a ton. Ordinarily we'd build our own, but there are too many other things to do before building work starts, and at half price they seemed good value.

Hope you all have a great day.

Good morning,a lovely sunny morning at my daughter's and sitting near her patio doors and the Sun beating in and it is warm the overnight temperature was 4c, will be taking it easy today as legs are a bit sore after laying some slabs last night OH wanted a path altered so her request is my command, when she wants anything it's to be done right away, but if I want anything, I have to wait, the sooner we have equality the better, in fact I will start a campaign demanding this,,, if she lets me

[Thelma Sanders]

Quite cool here, 12C with a strong NE breeze, so I reckon it's a catch-up with housework and then read a book kind of day. Right now I'm trying to resist putting the heating back on again

Have a good'un!

Morning all. Cooler here today as well. Taking dog for her laser therapy in a bit and expecting a massive bill to pay Lots of domestics to do, and a customer to visit. When will OH learn to put things away and not just dump them in a heap for me to do

Youngest much better, eldest has a sore elbow, bashed it at climbing last night. Right, got to move cars around on drive before vets. Have a good one whatever you're up to.

Well said that man tis really funny how things work like that, but I taught my little triffid early on that there are reasons men do things they way they do. I was installing some boarding in the loft and screwing it down, drilling pilot holes and countersinking and SWMBO informed me that her Dad would have just nailed the timbers, and that I was making a mountain out of a mole hill of a job and should be able to do it faster.

OK said I, I'll do it your way, I went and got a hammer and some nails and said to her "just watch the ceiling and you tell me when you want me to stop!"

She looked at me somewhat puzzled and then asked why she needed to look at the ceiling

"You'll see" I said, and proceeded to hammer a nail into the ceiling joist.

Stop Stop Stop!

Why do you want me to stop?

Because there are circles of ceiling falling off!

Yep that will be the skim over the fixing holding the plasterboard to the ceiling joists and that's why I'm screwing and not hammering nails. Shall I now return to the way I was doing it before ?

Well you can guess the answer and I left the damaged ceiling for some time before I repaired it, and often remind her of it when I get questioned why I do things the way I do.

It's far easier to train a puppy than a wife

Happy Wendsdy evening!
Been playing in the garden for most of it - nothing to show for it though!

Now, don't take this the wrong way, but I have a Great Tit in my cavity - or is it my vent?
Its a bit of a shock, I can tell you.
I was in the bedroom when I realised something was amiss - it was the cheeping - coming from somewhere it didn't ought to.
Thought I'd better go outside and get some fresh air and then I saw it - a Great Tit with a full beak, flying up to the ventilation grill in the wall under the eaves. Hope the chicks don't eat too much, they need to be able to squeeze out through the grill.
It explains why the dogs keep staring at the roof, they knew but they didn't bother to tell me. I suppose that's what they mean by Watch dogs?

On another note, has anyone else noticed that the Vine keeps going down - last night and this afternoon. Is there maintenance going on, does anyone know?

[Nicos]

No idea about the maintenance VC' but I've noticed a few times over the last couple of days that ,on occasion , it's taking ages to send a post or pm I've made.

Guess who went swimming yesterday -I'm aching all over at the moment!

[Florence Fennel]
