          @"M" Tiered seed sprouter ? Sounds interesting. Whatever it is, I'm glad it is working for you. This reminds me to start some sweat pea seeds too. Plus I have seed collected for Gallairdia that I should be starting up.

          Going to spend my day puttering around and playing with dirt. Then it's off to take the mustang for new brakes and go to the optician to order new glasses and contact lenses. And then stop and say hello to my friends at the pub.

          This is a request- Please, everyone, mend quickly - the weather is soon going to demand that we be in shape to tend our gardens!

            It's a gadget for making sprouting seeds for eating - particularly good during the winter when fresh "salad" greens are either un-growable/expensive to buy.
            Looks similar to this:-

            It was @shiney who tipped us off that he uses it for beginning some seeds for the garden. So, I thought I would try it with my sweet peas this year and it has worked a treat :dbgrtmb:

                    Morning all.

                    It's a bright, chilly morning here after some rain overnight. I've fed the chickens and chucked the last of the windfall apples out on the grass for the blackbirds. They were hopping around the lawn expectantly, so I couldn't let them down could I?

                    Forecast is a bit mixed for today, so I'll probably sort through some more paperwork if it turns wet, or take myself out for a walk if it's dry.

                    Got a friend coming round for a chat and a cuppa this morning, we've known each other all our lives so it's always good to catch up and have a natter about old times. :coffee:

                    Hope you are all well or on the mend, have a good day. :)

                      Aloha everyone,

                      Sorry to be on here late but I've been on the UK or EU thread putting in my twopenn'th (actually, I would guess it was at least a guinea's worth :heehee:).

                      It's a lovely sunny day. :SUNsmile:

                      Blood tests today :sad:

                      Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

                      Aloha!

                        Good morning all, looks a better morning out there at the moment. Had a bad night up and down to the loo, no more pork loin chops for me. Sinuses were bad but I think on the improve.
                        Shiney hope that back of yours is continuing to slowly improve. Wish Lolimac would come back do miss her input, hope her boys are ok.
                        Have a good day everyone, stay warm and dry and above all safe and well, God bless. :wub2:

                          I'll tell her you said that @moyra :thumbsup:

                          Bright and windy here, better than wet and dull :SUNsmile:

                          Should finish the 17 century window today, oh for a working camera :doh:

                              Good morning WW'ers

                              Lovely sunshine here this morning which will make our trip to the woods very pleasant. It will be interesting to see how the bluebells are doing too.
                              It's on the agenda woo - hoping you do too!

                              Best make a pot full ... that's a lot of talking ;) :heehee:

                              As a reader, I'd say your input was priceless :blue thumb: While fence sitting is becoming a career for me on that subject, you certainly make some very interesting points which I'm sure many who read that thread find illuminating. Keep it up :blue thumb:

                              Sorry to hear that :grphg: Hoping you manage a nap later to catch up on your bad night.
                              Glad you're improving :whistle: :heehee: Shame about the camera, I was looking forward to seeing it.
                              Oh no! She's off again :rolleyespink: :heehee: Glad your brother is improving, Beckie, totally empathise with the worry of it for you. :grphg: I've been the same with #1 son. It's been dreadful since he was attacked, but now he's picking up within himself, it is getting easier to be optimistic.

                              All the girls are out scratching around for bugs and juicy things. Now I'm getting two eggs per day ( :yes: ). I love how the one's who are not laying will go and sit with the one who is laying :heehee: I'm not sure if they are watching and learning or watching and reassuring but, it happens each year at the start of the season. :chicken: By the time one of them goes broody though, it's back to pushing and shoving in the nest box to get the best position (which includes sitting on top of one another) :roflol:

                              Only a few more days to go until Mothering Sunday and .... my day trip to RHS Wisley!! :hapydancsmil:
                              Which reminds me, must have my camera charged.

                              Healing vibes for all who need them and miles of smiles for all xxMxx
