    Hello everyone, just read back to catch up - Woo that is a lovely photo as always.
    Today I had my first hours hospital appointment and I have been shown how to do this at home. I hope it all helps - she did say I would be in trouble if I didn't wear these compression stockings and are reviewing what would be best for me.
    Looking forward to Shineys do - it will soon be here!

      Aloha everyone,

      What a lovely sunny day it was yesterday :SUNsmile: and there's no frost this morning. :blue thumb:

      They did forecast rain overnight but it's still dry so I'll get out in the garden and do some more of the edging.

      Jazmine, when you come along we can have a session of 'you show me yours and I'll show you mine' ;) - compression stockings, of course!

      Folly Mon has said he will come down again for Open Day :dancy:. It'll be good to see him back with us. :)

      Have a great day :biggrin:

      Aloha!

          Aloha everyone,

          Good morning everyone. It looks like there will a good turn out for GC members at this years show. Are we all coming on the saturday or sunday. Myself I think I would prefer Sunday but will go along with the majority of members who are coming to Shineyland.

          Have a good day all and please stay safe and warm. Weather not so nice today.

          Aloha!:wub2:

            Morning :)

            Moyra, I'm planning to visit shineyland on the Saturday, but, I'm going in disguise until I see who turns up first ;)

            After a fabulous day weatherwise yesterday, today is overcast (again!). It's not bothering the local wood pigeons, they've just been having a group bath in my pond :heehee:

            Good luck with your stockings, Jazmine; hope it works for you.

            Penny, hope you got your taxes sorted out - sounds very dull to me, but it's probably a necessary evil for you. I have home accounts to do today and normally I quite enjoy it, but my heart isn't in it today, so it will be a trudge.

            Wellness wishes to one and all
            Miles of smiles

              Good morning everyone,
              Hope everyone is on form:dbgrtmb:
              I'm so looking forward to meeting everyone at Shineyland:dancy: slight complications with my leave from work but i've got round that one;) :biggrin: it will be great to see Shineys garden in the 'flesh' so to speak,the pics have always looked great but to be able to wander around it ....in the SUNSHINE will be a real treat:dbgrtmb:

              It's a damp but mild day here so won't be outside in it as i'm STILL trying to shake off this cold....it's turned into a right stinker:sick0026: i'm going to make a big pan of Fennel and Celeriac soup and a loaf as i don't fancy anything more substantial.....

              Have a great day everyone,Take care:SUNsmile:

                The GC invite is usually for the Saturday as we open all day. On the Sunday we only open in the afternoon and we don't have any of the entertainment. I make sandwiches for lunch for GC members (and all the helpers) and some of the members stay till the evening and come to the Indian restaurant with us.

                Last year the ones that stayed for the Indian (trying to get my brain in gear and hope I don't miss anyone) were: ARMANDII, Ziggy, Willow, Strongy and Mrs Strongy, and Kristen (who came down just for the meal because he couldn't make it during the day as his daughter had a performance).

                Disguises are allowed :dbgrtmb:

                Now you're putting the pressure on! :)

                  Morning everyone,

                  The sun's out here, its so nice to see the sun instead of overcast skies, for a change!!

                  Not sure if i am in Toronto today or not, just waiting to hear if the parts are done, if not then I'll be going down tomorrow.

                  I have a couple things i need to do today, as well as popping into the grocery store.

                  Hope everyone has a great day!!

                    Well it looks like it will be Saturday for Shineyland then. Hope Steve is going to be home to look after Amber as I can only leave her a couple or three hours on her own.

                    Received my new Rollator. It arrived all in pieces and I had to put it all together. The instructions were not that brilliant but I managed and then took it for a walk with Amber. She was good and walked alongside it without any trouble and half way through her walk I was able to rest and sit down on it while she had a run around the green and then we walked back and took in the other green as well so it worked well. Really chuffed with it. [​IMG]

                      Sounds great, Moyra! Well done to Amber.

                      Re: shineyland - could you let Steve know *now* so that he can arrange to be there for Amber?

                        I am not sure of the dates and it is around the time of his 50th birthday so I am just praying there is no clashing of dates. I am off to the Goodnight thread now as is my wont as I am going to pull the plug in a little while.

                          I split my working week so that I could catch the last of the forecast good weather and amble over to Moore Nature Reserve, near Warrington, to explore it for a few hours. But first I made myself clean out the Green House ready for spraying it inside and out with Jeyes Fluid.
                          So it was nice just have a gentle walk around one of the Nature Reserve's lakes and take a few pics of it and the wild fowl.
                          As you say, Shiney, the pressure is on for the Open Day!!!:loll: Still, I know everyone will really enjoy it. The Indian meal we had was really nice and a good finish off to the day. I'll book accommodation at the nearby Farm as soon as you can confirm the details................no pressure.:heehee:
