Ought to go out in the garden today but can’t be bothered. It was beautifully sunny all morning, but extremely cold. We have just had quite a...
Had to laugh, @glosmike! It’s very tempting, but we are neither fit nor flexible enough to get out again! We do have a special stick we use to...
Ha, just wondering why you were signing out so early, @Ladybird4, until I looked at the clock! I don’t know where the day went. I’ve changed the...
Doesn’t seem that we actually do much for Commonwealth Day in the UK. Have been in Gibraltar twice on birthday trips, and was surprised to find...
How confusing, had no idea there was such variation across the country. As I’ve posted, we pay for a fortnightly green waste collection ( in a...
I’d be inclined to drop the blazer in to the school, @lizzie27. Somewhere there will be a frustrated parent wondering how it is possible that...
Thanks for all the birthday wishes! Made me feel very happy! We are out for breakfast at the Donkeys, lovely and sunny apart from the occasional...
Very careful where we buy from on line. Never use Amazon or eBay. I mainly buy from John Lewis and Marks and Spencer. If I am tempted by...
I’ve filled three big bags of heather and ivy, and cleared round the base of a couple of dwarf maples. It doesn’t actually look that different...
Please, @Obelix-Vendée, come over here and take as much wild garlic as you want. They seem to like the same conditions as the bluebells in our...
So sorry about the ear worm, @AnniD! I’ve had one for days, after OH showed me some videos of kittens ‘singing’ Korean pop songs. Quite amusing,...
Glad you had an enjoyable birthday, @Liriodendron. Is that Killaloe where Paddy McGinty’s goat lived? Glad @lizzie27 and @Busy-Lizzie are safely...
Came out of the shops this morning to find hailstones all over the ground! Glad we missed that!
9C, no sun. It was slightly brighter earlier, but the cloud is thickening. Still dry, as it has been for the last few days, but expecting some...
We pay £50 per bin, fortnightly collection, and we have two bins. We have a large garden, and nearly always manage to fill both bins. It’s worth...
Every time I’ve had anything done involving a general anaesthetic, I’ve had extensive pre op tests to check everything was ok. On the morning of...
Happy birthday for tomorrow, @Liriodendron! All the best people are born in March! (My dearest friend yesterday, and me on Sunday) I am being...
Back home and relaxing with a cup of tea. A pleasant walk up to the village, and the talk was very interesting. However, by the time I walked back...
The sun is shining here, but it’s also misty. Very pretty. 7C so a much warmer morning. No gardening this morning, I’m off to the women’s group...
A productive day. I’ve cleared the last clump of shrubs that I had my eye on, and still managed to get two lots of laundry done.OH took down a...
