      Good afternoon @Blue arbour. I am impressed by these people who go to GCs and escape the plants trying to leap into their baskets! That was a very kind thought of your OH on behalf of your neighbour. I am sure he/she will be relieved. I've already started altering some of my clocks and my timer switches.

          We need to put our clocks forward in France too.

          It's still sunny. I pulled out a few weeds but it's really too wet to do anything. I've tidied up a bit and done the ironing in front of GW. Having tea then I'll make the first course and pudding for tomorrow.

              I bought a bag of gravel at a hardware store then went for a stroll around the local park. We met a man who we knew from previous chats about his dogs. He now has a lovely setter/retriever cross and a golden retriever. Our dog was estatic as he found a golf ball on the putting green. It's in the car, ready to be played with again.
              I can't imagine the horror of one's house burning down. The poor, poor neighbour.
              Well done on the ironing, @Busy-Lizzie!

                Ha ha @pattie. You have created a picture in my mind of a very puzzled golfer wondering where his/her golf ball has disappeared to.

                  Evening folks.
                  Back from the Wedding in the Brecon Beacons. A beautiful setting and a gorgeous wedding. It was fine for 99% of the day, just a few spots of rain for some of the photos. They had a drone camera for some outside photos - what a fab idea! We have left the youngsters and people with energy to the evening ‘do’ plus we didn’t fancy the Beacons part of the drive home in the dark. Hats off to my fabulous driver (aka hubby) for going no alcohol today to drive us home safely tonight.

                  I’m shattered now so the clocks can go forward all they like, but I will be having a lie in tomorrow!

                  Take care all.

                    It was good enough for us to be able to have lunch in the garden. :dbgrtmb:

                    Clock times don't really bother me as I'm up 22 hours a day. :)

                    At least in the summer I can start gardening at 4.30 a.m. and enjoy the bees and the birds (thought it better to put those two in that order :heehee:) waking up and ignoring me completely as they start their day foraging.

                    My computer gets turned off at night so as not to wake Mrs Shiney as our office has a glass door and we tend not to close doors (bedroom is next to the office).

                        The birds must have been celebrating last night as they have woken up an hour later than usual :roflol:

                            Good morning all. Whatever you have got planned for today I hope it is wonderful for you.
                            Drat @shiney, the message about the hour change mustn't have got through to the birds!
                            @AuntyRach, it was so nice to read that you had such a lovely day at the wedding.

                              A gentleman by the name of Max Bowden has made a compilation of many funny announcements made in Church bulletins and then in Church services. They are genuine statements and are not meant to offend anyone in any way. I thought this one appropriate for today and will hopefully make you smile:
                              "This being Easter Sunday, we will ask Mrs Lewis to come forward and lay an egg on the altar."
