    It's dry and there is a smear of blue amid the grey clouds....sshhhh...I'm going to creep out there before the weather realises this oversight. :hapydancsmil:

          Aloha everyone,

          It's a wonderful, bright sunny morning :SUNsmile: but well below freezing.

          The birds were all waiting for me to fill up the feeders and I, once again, had a bird sit on my shoulder whilst I was doing it. Don't know if it was the same bird. :)

          Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

          Aloha!

            Good Morning everyone,
            Shiney, well pleased you are on the mend. Hope you are yet again able to sort poor Barry's problems out.

            Beckie, that is lovely that you have a blue tit, hope it does nest there. I have a nest box on the back of the flat which they used last year so am hoping they will do so again.

            WOO you are obvious by your absence I do hope that you are not unwell again, please take care of you and your family. God bless.
            Have a good day everyone, stay warm and dry and above all safe and well, God bless. :wub2:

              Morning all. Another bright and frosty start here.

              Got an exciting day doing housework planned for today, might even wander round to the shops later. :rolleyespink:

              Hope you are all well, have a good day.

                Good Morning,

                Beautiful day here, cold & bright.

                Kev put up the new bird box last night, I have everything crossed that the blue tit will return today & move in :fingers crossed:

                I went to Wilko's yesterday, they certainly have some nice bits & bobs for the garden in there at the moment :thumbsup:, worth a trip if you want Daliahs, they are only £1 :blue thumb:

                I'm desperate to get in the garden,I can hardly think of anything else! :whistle:

                I'm just going to make us all a cuppa :coffee: can someone bring the cake? ;)

                Enjoy your day everyone :grphg: Don't over do it @shiney & @Trunky :thumbsup:

                      Good morning all our lovely GC WW'ers :spinning:

                      Yes! Too much hand beating will put a strain on your back.

                      Here ya go @Beckie76 [​IMG]

                      @wiseowl - oooh lambing!!! :hapydancsmil: Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy :thumbsup:

                      @Trunky - :heehee: Oh the joys of being a househusband :whistle: Do try and make time to watch Jeremy Vile ... I hear that is what people do between the hovering and polishing :lunapic 130165696578242 5:

                      @moyra - hope your sinuses have now cleared?

                      @liliana - "cream for that" :loll::loll:

                      @CanadianLori - hope you have a great day ahead of you, Grambo :thumbsup:

                      @shiney - I reckon it may well be the same bird ... hope you check the back of your shirt afterwards, just in case he has rewarded you with a little "present" :whistle:

                      I've got a lot of IT work to do today (boo, hiss) so won't be out in the garden for any length of time. Mind you, sometimes just sitting out there and having a :coffee: is enough to get some benefits.

                      Enjoy your day today everyone xxMxx

                        I am expecting the clouds to part and provide lots of sunshine for me to enjoy while I dismantle and reassemble my smaller greenhouse. Changing out twinwall for polycarbonate. Cosmetic reasons only. I like the clear stuff. :)

                        Going to be bringing out the sun oven to do some baking for me while I am working. Think I'll start with hard cooked eggs for starting a potato salad. :)

                        Have a safe day all.

                        Oh, and forgot to mention that I take a break around 11 my time and come in to watch BBC news. Tried to watch the business at parliament but felt that I would nod off - yours is just as plodding as ours - should paint the wall next to the television to figure out which one is more interesting to watch, one drying or .... :snorky:

                          Good Morning everyone,
                          Hope backs and hands are all happy this morning.

                          I cannot believe how quickly the days are flying by. I still haven't been able to get out onto my lawn yet. Before now I have cut the grass in February. At this rate it will be April before it gets its first cut.

                          WOO do be careful bricklaying, however enjoy the spring lambs. Shiney, hope you were able to sort poor Barry out with the Council.
                          Have a good day everyone, stay warm and dry and above all safe and well. God bless. :wub2:

                              Aloha everyone,

                              The heavy frost of last night suddenly cleared about 4.30 a.m. and it looks as though we may have a good day.

                              My back is still easing up :blue thumb: but having a bit of trouble with me leg, now :doh:but it's better than yesterday.

                              @moyra I don't think that I'll have any problem sorting Barry out. I shall be taking him to the Town Hall next week just to give him confidence. Now that we've sorted out the paperwork he can do it quite easily himself but 'officials' worry him.

                              Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

                              Aloha!

                                Morning all. Bit of a dull, misty start here this morning.

                                Hope everyone is well. The hand is coming along nicely thanks @moyra, I'm hoping one more week off work should be enough, I'm gradually doing more with it each day. :)

                                I don't mind housework @"M", Mrs Trunky has spent about 30 years training me, so I'm quite domesticated now. :heehee:
                                Never watched Jeremy Vile in my life, I'd probably just end up shouting at the TV if I did. Actually, my preferred entertainment while doing the housework is a Canadian based classic rock station, via the internet, with the volume turned up VERY LOUD!!
