      Good Morning everyone, rather a grey morning out there so expect we shall have more rain, will have to get Amber out before it starts.

      Have a good day all, God bless. :wub2:

          Aloha everyone,

          @wiseowl Wish you better, Woo :grphg:

          @moyra according to the weather map you may get some intermittent light showers this morning and sun this afternoon. :blue thumb:

          Busy day today but I want to do some mowing first.

          The birds are really happy today as I got my delivery of bird food yesterday :dbgrtmb:. 20kg of mixed kibbled and chopped seeds and nuts, 2.5kg of peanuts and some 1kg fat cakes. Nothing but the best for our birds :snork: I've decanted all of that into the containers.

          After breakfast I have to move 50kg of salt into the loft for our water softener :phew: and need some other things out of the loft.

          We're well into the cutting back and tidying up phase of our gardening and, since Tuesday, have filled three wheelie bins, have another bonfire built that's 5ft diameter and 6ft high, have finished filling one compost heap and half of another, with a third having been cleared out ready for more. :)

          I've also registered my R85 so that I now don't pay any tax on bank and building society interest (new tax laws this year :blue thumb:). Doesn't save much with the cr@ppy interest rates but every little bit helps!

          Have a great day :biggrin:

          Aloha!

            Good afternoon everyone, late again! Hope that you soon get better @wiseowl. Thanks for the heads up about R85 @shiney, I will be looking into that later.
            It has been a lovely day here so far, that will no doubt tempt fate, I will get my brolly out now.
            Bailey and I went for our walk this morning and came across a large amount of blackberries. We ate a few and then went back later with my OH and some containers, blackberry and apple pie for tea with a bit of luck.
            Enjoy what is left of this wonderful day.

              @lykewakewalker apart from your basic tax allowance (£10,600) there is now an allowance of £5,000 for unearned income from bank and building society interest.

              The way I read it is that if your total income (pensions plus interest) is above £15,600 then you can't claim for your interest to be given to you gross (R85 form) but may be able to claim some back at the end of the tax year.

              If it's below a total of £15,600 then you can.

              Unearned income from investments does not come into the equation as it's either taxed at source or has paid notional tax. ISA's are also outside of the equation.

              Check it out for yourself as I'm not qualified to give financial advice.

              Some banks allow you to register for R85 over the telephone. :blue thumb:

                  @shiney, read and understood. I will have a look at it tomorrow.
                  By the way, the blackberry and apple pie was delicious!

                    Good evening my friends,

                    I'm so sorry to hear that you are feeling poorly @wiseowl , I wish you a speedy recovery, prehaps a few extra mice for tea will help!

                    I'm very late today, but I have some very exciting news.........5 NEW HENS! :hapfeet::hapydancsmil:, I couldn't find any Buff Orpingtons locally so I've settled for Hybrid hens, tomorrow I will post some photos, they are very pretty :wub2:, it's so nice to be back up to seven hens again :dancy:

                    I've also got to pick my plums & raspberries, my raspberries are coming thick & fast now :dbgrtmb:

                    I'm off to bed, good night, sleep tight & watch the bedbugs don't bite! :heehee::snooze:

                        Aloha everyone,

                        The sun is just waking up so it should warm up out there soon. :SUNsmile:

                        Woo, I hope you're feeling better on this bright morning :blue thumb:

                        We got lots done yesterday and I mowed four lawns, picked loads of runners, French bean, rhubarb, blackberries, pears, courgettes, chillies and picked up lots of windfalls :dbgrtmb: Our golden plums finished weeks ago and the black plums have a couple of weeks to go before being ready.

                        It's a busy non-gardening day today. :)

                        Have a great day :biggrin:

                        Aloha!

                            Morning @shiney, @wiseowl and everyone, it's a sunny if cool morning here in WY, just the kind of morning for a long walk with Bailey. I hope that you are feeling better @wiseowl.
                            I would love to save you a slice @Apple Blossom but with 4 kids and 8 grandchildren the pies wont go too far ;)
                            Have a good day all

                              Good morning everyone,

                              AB thanks for asking about the parking situation it has been better since I put the notes on the cars. The one Mercedes has been dumped there not moved for about 5 weeks and I see someone has broken the mirror obviously pushing through between the two cars. I have warned the police and the council that the vehicle is dumped has a window partially open and now a broken wing mirror. Done some time on Saturday night last as I noticed it first thing last Sunday morning.

                              WOO do hope you are feeling a lot better now my dear friend.

                              Beckie, how wonderful, look forward to seeing the photos of the new chooks. How lovely.

                              Hope everyone else is ok, Shiney your foot back on the mend again and Lilli all well with you and OH now. Have a good day everyone,
                              God bless. :wub2:
