      Aloha everyone,


      @Beckie76 It's good to see you on here as we've missed you. I hope things are going OK :wub2:


      Yesterday went very well with all our guests although all of them that said they were just 'popping in for a cuppa' ended up staying until 11 p.m. Fortunately I had made a big spag. bol. for supper. :)

      It was much too hot to eat lunch outside and I got rather hot doing the cooking (even with the air-con going in the kitchen :rolleyespink:. Two ovens, a grill and six hobs all working at the same time was a bit more than the air-con could cope with successfully :phew: Having the window open would have been a waste of time with the temperature outside at 82F and I lowered the blind as the sun was pouring in.

      The food was dished up and I left the wait staff (Mrs Shiney :heehee:) to serve it whilst I went and had a wipe down with a cold cloth and then a change of clothes. I then strolled into the dining room all cool and collected :whistle:

      A very hot day forecast today and I've already got the sprinkler going as the plants are quite unhappy with the lack of water. Hopefully Michael will turn up today :scratch:

      Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

      Aloha!

        Good morning everyone, when I looked out this morning and saw how foggy it was it seemed more like a September morning. Good for mushrooming.
        Have a good day all, stay warm and dry and above all safe and well. God bless. :wub2:

                Steve has had fun cutting back the ivy this morning and sliced through my television and broadband cable. Fortunately we found enough bits and pieces to re-establish a connection. Virgin are going to come out to do the job properly on Wednesday afternoon.

                        Aloha everyone,

                        Well, Michael didn't turn up yesterday as his brakes packed up on him. :doh: His vehicle is now in the garage being fixed and he says he'll get his dad to drop him off today :th scifD36: I think it would have been too hot for him yesterday anyway as he has some heavy work to do.

                        What??? Is it the 24th of March already? :snorky:

                        Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

                        Aloha!

                                After Steve's little exercise yesterday with slicing through the cable tv and broadband cable I think perhaps I ought to get him insured for any future expeditions! Good idea?
