    Morning everyone,

    It is a beautiful day out there. The birds are singing and the sun is shining so I want to make the most of it.:D

    I spoke to my friend yesterday who is in Portugal and was gently letting her know what to expect when she would be arriving home last night.I have no idea the full extent of the problem because we couldn't get into the house.I just hope she wasn't too upset and I also warned her about the electrics because we don't know if they were affected by the water pouring through the ceilings:(It is such a shame as they are a real nice family and me and their kids look on each other like we are family:) They can claim off of the Insurance but if it was me I would be worried every time I left the house.Next time I think they need to leave a key with someone and turn the water off before they go away.Something I don't think many of us do:p

    Rosa,glad you got the car ok and now we have some sun you will be enjoying it once you get the hang of that roof:D

    Jazmine,know what you mean about housework.It is like painting the forth bridge in this house.I just wish my hubby and the cats would stop acting like Hotel guests and learn to pick up after themselves:hehe: We are not growing toms this year as we lost them the last two years to blight so gave up in the end.:(

    Right I had better get on or else I am going to miss all that good weather.Hope you all have a great day in all that you do:luv:

    Good morning Kandy and everyone,

    I haven't had time to get on here lately. We have workmen all over the place and we are trying to get ready for holiday.

    Helen, I hope you are OK as I see you haven't been on here for some days.

    Doorbell is ringing. :(

    Have a great day :D

    Good morning Kandy, Shiney and everyone,

    The sun is shining here :yho: after endless fog and drizzle! Lots of catching up to do in the veg garden, we haven't been able to work on the soil as it's been so wet. Did some more rock-digging in the front garden yesterday and nearly threw in the towel at one point, it's so hard digging out all that builders' rubble etc, and such slow progress.
    But a cup of tea and 3 digestives later, I went back and did a bit more...triumph of hope over common sense :)
    Kandy, hope your friends are coping with their house, that's an awful thing to happen, makes you count your blessings (especially me grumbling about weather !)
    Rosa, you must be really proud of your car. My vehicle-mad 4 year old spent ages looking at the photos, he likes your galloping horses too!
    Shiney, hope you'll soon be able to relax and enjoy your holiday, and Helen, hope you're ok :)
    Have a great day, and hope you all have sunshine! :)

    Its been a busy week here for me, we had some nicer days at the beginning of the week, so i have been outside as much as i can, and getting some cleaning done, and working outside.
    Hope everyone is well.

    Morning Shiney,Rosa and everyone:)

    I've been up since before five as the brids were singing and the sun was shining so have been sorting through a load of my photos that I have taken over the last couple of weeks and have put some of them on the thread about our stolen rotavator.

    We have a lot to do today,have to get back over to the allotment to finish off securing the shed and hope that the thieves haven't been back in the night.:(Looks like it is going to be another hot day as well:)

    Shineyhope the decorating is going well.I bet you are glad you will be away to miss all the mess.I would just get rid of all those boxes of stuff you have been hoarding for the last fifty years,the minimilistic look is the norm these days,less stuff to dust:flag::)

    Rosa,glad you had a good day and nice to hear your Grandson enjoyed the car nad nice to hear you enjoyed going topless up the motorway:D

    Have a good day everyone and sorry if I have missed you today,it's just that I have a lot on my mind at the moment:luv:

    Rosa,I bet your balcony looks nice with your flowering plants.Well done you for brightening up the place and are able to sit and enjoy your plants:thumb:Hope you get your car problems sorted.This is somehting you don't need at this moment in time:(:cnfs::scratch:

    Shiney have a good week and hope the weather stays fine for both you and Mrs Shiney:thmb::luv:

    Well Poppy has just come in through the lounge window and is doing her utmost to attract my attentionk-l so better go and sort her out so I can have some peace:D
