Yawn Yawn, Wakey WAKEY...!! 2014 part 2...

Good Afternoon WW'ers

Seems the weather and I have something in common: neither of us can make our minds up today I took my cue from the weather when I saw a beautiful rainbow and decided that I would look at which rainbow colours would go into my garden plan for my shade garden; surprising amount really! Now I need to research acers because I've taken rather a fancy to those.

Hope you managed to get Amber out without being soaked Moyra

Fab pic of (Willow?) on the barrow Loli

Shiney - love the menu title

Miles of smiles to one and all xMx

 

Evening all

Sorry not to have been on for a couple of days but we have adopted a couple of dogs and been spending time with them settling them in. They are fab but need lots of training as they obviously haven't had any. They also make it difficult to type as they like to clamp themselves onto my legs and drape themselves over the keyboard On the upside they don't seem bothered by fireworks which are kicking off here like cannon fire, apart from barking at some dogs who are barking at the fireworks . Having had severely noise phobic dogs previously this is a huge bonus

Hope everyone is well and will try to resume normal postings tomorrow

 

Good evening everyone,

Eve.......Looking forward to hearing how your 2 furries are settling in

Hope everyone is settled down for the night and cozy,the wind and rain was horrendous an hour since and folk were still letting off fireworks...

Have a good night all

 

Morning everyone,

Eve, I assume you will have to get your two new furries passports so they can come and go with you between Eastbourne and France.

Loli, yes despite or in spite of the weather they were out there letting off fireworks again last night, hopefully this weekend will see the end of them!

Shiney, hope you managed to spread your muck around ok. Your plants will think it is spring already with the warmth from the manure!

WOO and all our other friends, hope all is well with you all. Have a good day all, stay safe, dry and warm.
God bless.

 

Good morning everyone,

Woo...Hope you're steadily getting back to full fight

Moyra...How you doing? hope your sinus problems are abating

Shiney...The sun is out here too...I'm sure your (ATLML) menu will be delicious ,you'll have to let us know what you decide on I really must stop thinking about food all the time

Sat here looking out of the window at the garden I have big plans to perform miracles out there today...let's see how far I get I think another cup of tea is in order while I think about it

Waves to all,have a lovely day and take care

 

Morning early people

Bit of a storm going on here, should blow out soon though.

Hope all are well

Have a good day everyone and don't buy any Poppies off ebay.

 

Mmmm that sounds lovely ShineyI'm drooling worse than the dogs

 

Morning all

Sunny and breezy here.

Shiney that meal sounds gorgeous. Lucky friends.

Moyra, their pet passports are already done. We asked the kennels where they were being boarded to get them done when they were getting them vaccinated etc prior to rehoming so they're ready to travel when we are . We know they're good on long journeys as they've had a 3 hour trip from the kennels to Eastbourne and, apart from the initial excitement when we set off, they settled down beautifully.

Enjoy the miracle performing in your garden Loli.

Hope you're continuing to improve Woo.

Don't blow away in the storm Zigs.

Hope everyone is well and has a wonderful Saturday

 

Good morning WW'ers

Eve - sounds as though Cooper & Honey are settling in well It's good that they enjoy travelling. When we got Ozzy we were told he gets car sick ... ... erm, no, he doesn't!

Loli - ooh miracles, eh! When you've performed yours, would you pop down here and perform a couple for me, please

Shy Knee - your menu sounds delicious! I'm really glad you posted the ingredients for the crumble, I was really scratching my head over "gluten free, fat free, sugar free" and imagined it was a "topless" crumble (Pretty much in the same vain as one of my mother's vegetarian Sunday roasts ... a Sunday dinner without any meat!) How do you make your coconut milk thick and creamy, please?

Zigs - hope the storm blew over before you did.

Moyra - enjoy your day and hope Amber is doing well

Woo and anyone else I may have missed - waving in your direction

Well this mornings sunshine tempted me outside with my tape measure and I now have all the measurements I need to create my Layout Plan. I'm not going to do anything with the (ugly concrete) patio other than keep pot plants on it - with a few thyme popped into the cracks. But now I have decided how to utilise the rest of the garden. Spent hours yesterday researching plants as well as searching threads on here and I can almost see the end result in my minds eye. It is going to be quite a while before I get any where near to that result though

Eve...That's interesting to hear about the passports,when they first came out,back in my Duggys day it was months before all the paper work etc was finalised and he was older and infirm so we didn't bother as I thought the journeys would be too much for him.

'Mum' (sorry old habits die hard)...I'd love to perform 'miracles' in your garden but I'm sure you will have it completely under control ...the rain has stopped any impending miracles here did get a little done but even I'm not daft enough to get soaked through to the skin more than once in 24 hours...

I wonder if it would work with a thin skim of cement on top and then gravel pressed into it...Just an idea

The poor chooks are sulking because they want to come out to play but the garden is turning into a swamp (perfect chicken digging material) so they're entertaining themselves with some Spring greens instead

Stay dry everyone
