Yawn ... wakey, wakey ...

Morning Hel,Rosa and:wlcm: Shiney

Hel and Rosa,do take it easy with your back problems,I know how much we all love our gadening and balconys but need to take things steady now we are getting er:D

Shiney it will take too long to try and catch up so I wouldn't bother if i was you:D

Penny hope your daughter has a great Birthday

 

hi kandy hehe you to need to take care of your back and your dear hands also hun, the weather is lovely here nice and warm do hope you have a great day and dont overdo things

 

Hi Rosa,I know I have to look after me old back and this gammy hand but as usual I was thinking of other people {you and Hel} to make sure you don't over do it like I did and end up the same:D.,though having said that the Dr did say in the begining that a lot of key board users suffer with the same problem so perhaps I have been doing too much finger work on the old keyboard as it is my thumb and wrist that are the ones playing up:D

I have been outside and washed my car as best as I can as it hasn't been done for months then collected some carborad boxes from my neighbour to hoard in the garage.As fast as Mr K gets rid of one lot another lot appears:hehe:Our friends at the allotment think we have either come into some money or are alcholics going by the pictures on some of the boxes and the fact that a lot of them are wine boxes:D:D

Hope you enjoyed your morning with your friend.I am just off to get myself something to eat

 

Morning Woo and everyone,don't know about you Woo but I think April has just flownin fact the whole year has whizzed by:DDon't do BBQ's Woo as I always think the weather here is hardly ever warm enough and with the time it takes to light it and get the food cooked and on the plate my hungry hubby would have gone down to the nearest chippy:D.My neighbour who is a chef has them nearly every evening and even in the really cold weather he is out there in shorts and T.shirt and tongs in hand:D

Just been outside to read the meters and it is freezing cold out there,brrrr.I want some sun:(:D

Hope you all have a great day and please don't get too cold

 

Morning Woo, Kandy and all.
Hiya Shiney welcome back sweetie.:wuvu:
Woo not too sure about a barbeque today it's quite really wet here but not cold thank goodness for that. Have to agree April has flown pass so very quickly or is that solely because as we get older time seems so fleeting?

Kandy/Rose this old bird is still up and about I just have to jack myself up for a re-charge (excise) and I'll be ready for the day maybe I'll have another cuppa first and a slice or two of toast but that toast might have to be changed to bran to get things working...... another thing we have to keep in order.:hehe:

Rosa I forgot I had sown some nasturtiums seeds in my borders and was just about to pull the seedlings out the other day thinking they were weeds .... I really must keep an upto date sowing diary. I do love nasturtium sadly so do blackfly they nearly wiped mine out last year until Bob played 'Bugbuster' and killed them all:ntwrth: He does come in handy I think I'll keep him.:hehe:

Dentist this morning with one of my boys so no lie in for Harry today shame as it's his day off too.:ywn: Have a nice day guys.Hel.xxx.

 

morning woo, kandy, helen and everyone,
kandy hun you always think of everyone else but you mind thats not a bad thing shows you care for your friends on here, and thats were my pain in my hand starts from my thumb and up my wrist so i guess ive got the same it must be all this typing we do, mines in my left hand thats my writing hand.
helen my friend gave me the nasturciam seeds havnt noticed any black fly, i seem to get a lot of green fly and they go for my clematis so i keep and eye out every day and give them a good blast with the bug killer hehe, you can eat the nasturcian flowers according to my friend, wonder what they taste like, i will keep an eye on them they are 3 inches grown now.
woo i would love to barbeque iff i had a nice big garden but i did try a little one on my balcony and the flames were unbelievable i was terrified so ive not done that anymore hehe
have a great day everyone

 

I used to keep Racing Piddy's, , I loved them ,great hobby.Hope the owner lets you know when it gets home. We somtimes got them back with a note inside the race ring.

 

Hi everyone,

Popping in to say hi, today was my errands day and grocery shopping, and i've been outside, putting down grass seed in some spots where the grass is not growing.
Hope everyone is well.

 

Good Morning Woo and everyone and Happy May 1st

Well it is Mr Kandy's Birthday next Wednesday so have been busy trying to wrap up all the goodies I have got for him and he is having the day off work on the day so hopefully if the weather stays nice we will go out for the day.Might look in the book and see what the NT has to offer.Might as well use it as we have paid for it:D

Rosa,what are you like trying to set light to your flats with that barby eeeek:hehe: Yes that is me all over thinking of the well being of others.I do tend to put everyone else first and me last but that is me and it is too late to change:D
I didn't know you were a lefty Rosa, I thought you were right handed like me
Did you hear on the News that someone from Newcastle has got that Swine flu?

Hel,I never have any problems as I eat plenty of granary bread,plus Weetabix in the summer and Porridge in the winter months and always have plenty of water to drink during the day.I like mine cold straight from the fridge,can't drink it warm from the tap:p

Shiney,hope you got the freezer working ok,not good when they play up

Well my right hand has started itching so had better go and get myself a lottery ticket because they say left hand leave right hand recieve so some money might be coming my way:lollol:

Hope you all have a great day :luv:

 

Morning Woo, Kandy and all.

Not sure Bob and I can cope with temps around 30+ Woo we start to melt at 18! I do hope it's not too hot just warm enough for t-shirts and and that will do us of course we will be wearing shorts or trousers to save our blushes as well.:D

Yes Rosa your friend is quite right you can indeed eat the flowers of nasturtiums they have a kind of peppery taste and look stunning in a salad.

Kandy have you got your beloved something nice for next week? I do hope the weather is nice for you so you can really make the most of his day off.

Penny I have a couple of 'lovely' bare spots in my lawn too a little present from our two old ladies they have started to 'go' among our borders as well now I really don't know which is worst!

Shiney fingers crossed that your freezer gets sorted without costing you your hard earned money.

Joyce there are so many wild pigeons around us here that I wonder if the council will start a cull on them it's starting to look like Trafalgar Square!

Strange how the newbies down on the plots look at me in horror when I suggest hunting the rabbits and pigeons to eat, most of them see them as pets not pests. People need to remember that at one time your meat came fresh still skinned not cling filmed wrapped!

Yesterday went to the pickle factory in Sheffield to pick up some water butts only manged to squeeze 3 in the car and that's with the back seats folded up against the front ones the butts were HUGE, two guys came out to help the guy that was trying to get the butts in the car and called out 'Can we be of any help? cheeky Bob answered 'Yes if you're magicians! Can't take him anywhere!:o

Have a nice day guys.Hel.xxx.
