    Aloha everyone,

    It's a bright morning but cloudy and very still out there.

    I'll check later how the bonfire went last night. It was 7ft high and had a diameter of about 6ft when I lit it. Before lighting the blue touch paper I had the hose alongside me and had hosed down the trees within 10ft of the fire.

    Once it had burnt down to 4ft high and 3ft diameter I left it to get on with itself as the hundreds of wasps (could have been thousands :scratch:) that were busy in the plum tree were beginning to get annoyed with the smoke.

    There were no big flames by that time because I had piled all the green stuff on to[p of the fire. With a bit of luck the heat from the core of the fire will have kept it burning until everything had become ash. I can't see it from the house so have no idea. :noidea:

    Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

    Aloha!

            Good Morning hope every one is well this morning....what a beautiful day, sun is out and not a cloud in sight

            Mr AB has had to go to work :sad: so I'm going to attempt to lift all the flags around the pond myself this morning and at the very least get the underlay down so that we can put the liner down together later this afternoon.

            Thank you @shiney :heehee: it was Tec7 sealant and not silicone I went to purchase yesterday :lunapic 130165696578242 5: I bet you had a good giggle over that!!

            Whilst at B&Q a friendly member of staff told me that there was a 'Water World' 10 mins away and I'd be better going there... so off I went... :wow: it was great.... a bit trumpy on prices but I've stolen lots of ideas :heehee: and meeting Mr AB there later this morning, I hope he's got his wallet with him :snork:

            Hope you all have a wonderful Sunday and enjoy your day :)

                Good morning my friends,
                I hope you are all well. I've been absent on here again, so much going on I live in hope that things will quieten down :fingers crossed:
                I've not been doing much in the garden, just watering & pulling out the odd weed here & there. The garden is looking quite good, my veggie patch is looking a bit empty but the veg has been really good :)
                Happy gardening folks, enjoy your day :hapydancsmil:

                        Morning all:spinning:

                        Feeling a bit tired:snooze:, dog woke me from my restless slumber at
                        4.30a.m. For my sins yesterday, right as I was finishing putting everything
                        in the car at the boot sale, a wasp got caught under my arm, and stung me :yikes:
                        trust me to have butterflies and flowers on my smock top :heehee:. Suffice to
                        say that my arm, as I do not tolerate stings very well, is now red, and swollen.
                        I have taken an antihistamine again this morning .

                        Fred(asleep on my lap), and myself were watching a series called 'Tut' that I recorded
                        some time ago, so I have nearly caught up with my films on Sky.

                        Lots of work on today, mostly clearing up, finishing unloading the car, and
                        loads of seedlings to pot on.:phew: Started hoovering, but the battery has gone
                        flat on me. :whistle: Pile of laundry to iron :thud:, usual washing up and dusting.

                        A woman's work is never done. :th scifD36: And I still want to stuff some marrow flowers :heehee:

                        Still, have a good one.

                          Good morning everyone, Gosh Lili, you wear me out before I even start the day. True I have a load of washing on clothes horses that need now to go out to finish off drying and airing. But I do not have much energy for much more I can assure you. Amber's walked and watered that something. So fed up of feeling tired all the time expect that is the diabetes although I do not sleep well at night. I hope everyone else is ok and feeling WOO's bounce.
                          Have a good day all, god bless. :wub2:
