    Good morning everyone,

    It drizzled a bit yesterday but we still managed to get a few things done in the garden. Although it rained again in the night we now have lovely sunshine.

    I'll check the weather forecast as we may go to visit Kirtling Tower, near Newmarket, which has one of its open days for charity today. They usually open at this time because of their daffodils. They have 70,000 of them and have recently planted 30,000 muscari and chionodoxa.

    Have a great day. :D

    Penny have a good day what is left of it you too Kandy.
    Shiney hope you enjoy the garden, we went to Blickling Hall which is a National Trust house and garden and was free today so a saving of nearly twenty pounds. There were a lot of people there!

    Morning Rosa,glad that you had a good day yesterday out with your friend:gnthb:

    Good Luck with the patches,Mr Kandy packed up the pipe with patches and it has been two years next month,and I never ever thought that he would pack up.I even joked that if he passed away before me i would make sure he had his pipe in one hand and his lighter in the other when they put him in his wooden overcoat:hehe:

    Let us know how it goes and will be thinking of you:thmb::luv:

    Have a good day:)

    Good morning everyone,

    Woo, I met one of your family yesterday and he said he is keeping an eye on you :hehe:

    Kandy, enjoy your shopping :thumb:

    rosa, if you're going to get your arches sorted it might be a good idea to go with Kandy and get some shoes that fit right! :hehe: :lollol:

    Yesterday we didn't get as far as Kirtling Tower as we went to the village of Thriplow. They had their annual daffodil fair. Normally the village would be a mass of gold from the thousands of daffs planted all around it. The daffs weren't in bloom but there were dozens of stalls and lots of activities all over the village and plenty of opportunities to have a variety of food. There were displays of various sorts including old cars, stationary engines, face painting for the kids, horse and cart rides, a brass band, morris dancing, an organist playing tunes from classical to rock and lots of other things.

    We spent about four hours there in the warm sunshine amongst the crowds of people.

    We managed to get some gardening done before and after the visit and hope to get more done today.

    Have a great day :D

    Good afternoon everyone,

    Shiney lovely eye photo of the European Eagle Owl and i see you stood well back and zoomed in to get the photo:D I love visiting places that have plenty going on especially if there are either birds of prey or horses present:hehe:

    Jazmine you might have not eaten enough last week so your body has clung onto the extra calories,hence no weight loss.Never mind put it behind you and make more effort ready for next weeks weigh in.Last week it looked like I had put a couple of lbs back on but the next day I weighed myself again and it had gone again,don't know where but it had gone walkabout and I would have had to work out to extremes to lose those couple of lbs in a day.:DMr Kandy is upset as he has put a lb back on again:hehe:When i go for my blood test next month I will see whether my efforts have been worth it,or I shall be very sad:p

    Change of plan from this morning.Mr Kandy informed me that we were going to have rain so never went shopping but took my onion sets over to the allotment and got them in so that is one job out of the way,shallots to do next and by the way it has just started raining here now so looks like it will be shopping tomorrow instead as I must get a top ready for next Tuesday plus have my hair chopped,plus get some new shoes,plus I might have a look round M&S,Next and Laura Ashley while I am about it:D

    PS,The Bxxxxy builders are back next door and as usual they have to leave the machinery running while they have a chat.I won't even be able to sit in my sun room through the summer with all that awful noise going on:mad:.I will have to make sure I am out of the house between eight and four each day to escape it.Perhaps Mr and Mrs Shiney will let me stay in their summerhouse through the summer for a small fee:p

    Hello everybody :) Not been on over the weekend - so much going on at the moment. I'm feeling totally exhausted after this little cold that continues to hang on - just now enjoying some citrus and ginger tea and then going to hit the sack early methinks :)

    Kandy - good to see you back - sorry you've been having a hard time with the sciatica - not nice at all :(

    Looking forward to seeing your finished garden pics Rosa - you've worked so hard on it already and spring has just barely sprung! Well done!

    Going off to catch up on what everybody is up to.......and then snooze time :)

    Have a good one everybody!

    Evening all...
    Kandy, luckily I had stayed the same phew but must get going again this week as I want to fit into my summer clothes! Marks had a sale so I bought some bits today. Some stuff was down to only five pounds! I have stocked up now. I got a new swimmimg costume and pretty slip on top for putting over my costume and OH said "ANOTHER costume, you have 6 already" Ooops.

    Natalie, you are always running about after your family, maybe your body is saying it needs a rest and some me time.
