Cor, just realised, it'll be September when we wake up

Ah well...it's been a glorious summer and we still keep getting reminders eh?

[Tripmeup]

Should have added I am also for a wee (large) brandy to sip while reading, now that is something I rarely do, and it is actually one I bought myself, so if anyone cares to join me you are more than welcome, just bring a smile

I'll bring a smile Rary and some good rum..and some quality Irish whiskey...any good to you??
Your smile will be wider after those 2..

Morning all and pinch-a-punch. Blummin heck it's nearly autumn (already thinking foraged wild mushrooms).

Sun's out again and it's unseasonably mild, most welcome though
Happy Saturdays

[Nicos]

Mornin n'alln'all
First upBones?

Nice choice of frock
I was thinking the same thing about mushrooms just the other day!
We know of a wood where there are a few areas of lawyer's wigs . Not many at a time, but a lovely treat for a change.
Domestics for me today...plus decorating a few stones for the craft fair.

Happy September peeps...see ya later!

Morning its September already but the suns out so its going to be a good day

[Snoop Puss]

Rary, I smile every time you say something like share a smile or bring a smile. Just so's you know. Even though you can't see it.

And to the mushroom hunters, the only good thing about no rain here is no mushrooms. Our land is prime wild mushroom territory. Sends the dogs mad, all these strangers rustling about in the undergrowth and trying to pretend they're not there. Plus, it's amazing the amount of damage they do, crushing plants and overturning soil. We would not be very popular if we were to fence in our land... Plus it would be expensive and probably serve no purpose.

So, on to today. Bright and blue, but everywhere covered with dew. A bit of clothes organisation to start off and then on with work. Could be worse.

Big news is Mr Snoop has become a lot more enthusiastic about the freezer. He's been trying to dissuade me from using it. Till I mentioned freezing plums for crumble over winter. All of a sudden it's a great idea!

Have a great day everyone. With plenty of smiles.

Morning everyone. A bit foggy here first thing here but seems to be slowly going now.
The kids are back now so its a busy day making sure they are all sorted ready for start of school on Wednesday.
Going to see my mom and dad today then might go and have a quick look at the allotment.
Have a good day everyone.

Snoop, I freeze bags of ready made crumble mix -often 6-8 x the quantity so can grab a couple of handfuls( usually more) to put on top of defrosted fruit.
So quick to prepare and cuts down on the washing up and importantly freezer space!

[Nicos]

It's turning out to be hot sunshine so far today....warmer than I expected!
* tootles off to change top for something cooler....

[Florence Fennel]

Good Morning All Beautiful day here too. Have a good day

[Florence Fennel]

We've got a rat in the garden, it comes out regularly from under the shed. I've put down poison, but it has plenty to eat while the apples keep falling and the tomatoes are ripening so I doubt it will take it. I just hope it's on its own

'Me' day yesterday was a goodun!

Spent the morning digging the plot and as a bonus collected a few worms for the afternoon fishing excursion.
Had some lunch then spent the rest of the day fishing. I was the only one on the water which is the way I like it.
Managed to catch a trout and lost a few, but as usual it was always the big ones that got away
Got my breakfast out of it anyway!

[Thelma Sanders]

Mornings!
Chilly last night down to 9C so a heavy dew here as well, but nice and sunny and 20C now
It's been such a strange growing year that I've lost my allotment mojo atm but hope I find it later today

Have a good'un whatever you're up to

[Jay22]

Morning not so good here, dull and damp, not too chilly though. September already who'd have thunk it?
Hope you all have a great day, especially those with the sunshine you lucky lot.
