    77F (too darn hot) here and the weather map shows the rain coming towards us. It's supposed to reach @moyra by about 7 p.m. and us about 11 p.m.

          Aloha everyone,

          @Beckie76 That's great news :yahoo:

          As of last night our baby doves hadn't arrived but are due any moment :)

          It only drizzled in the night but is due to rain later and a yellow weather warning is in force for today and tomorrow (risk of surface floods) so it will probably be sunny.

          We got lots done yesterday and Mrs Shiney used 300litres of compost with the repotting she has done. I've planted up the new bed and may take a photo if the weather allows.

          Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

          Aloha!

            We are out today looking for a car for Mrs Woo ,this will be the 3rd day,yesterday Mrs woo tried an automatic for the first time,I sat in the back with my owl like eyes shut tightly :heehee:

            We have now looked and tried 12 different cars but Mrs woo said that none of them felt right(what ever that means) she wants a particular colour,she has said that she enjoyed driving the automatic but isn't sure,:lunapic 130165696578242 5: anyway I digress so enjoy your day day:smile:


            @Beckie76 that's great news my friend please please pass on our warm wishes to both of them:grphg:

                  Good morning,

                  We at blessed with rain this morning, the garden was looking quite dry yesterday, after the plants gave had a good drink I'm looking forward to some more sunshine :fingers crossed:

                  @moyra, no name as yet, there's a choice of two names at the moment, but neither had been agreed last night! He was 8lbs 7ounces! I want to upload a photo but they've not put anything on Facebook yet & are still telling relatives so I shall have to wait. I hoping they will be discharged from hospital today so I canpop in on them at home, I'm not a fan of hospital visits. Thank you for all your warm wishes I will pass them on.

                  I'm now off to fetch my car back after taking it for service last week! Apparently they've been short staffed! :whistle:

                  Enjoy your day everyone :grphg:

                    Morning all :spinning:

                    Beckie, congrats. :dbgrtmb:

                    Lovely cool weather here, had a good drop of water overnight, the plants needed it.
                    :yes:
                    Busy potting up Pumpkins, courgettes and squash plants for the boot sale. Tomato
                    plants selling well, still got about 200 left :wow:. starting to sort out flower plants
                    getting them ready for sale as well.

                    Managed to get all my ironing for this week done, been sorting all the clothes
                    for this summer. I started to take up a pair of jeans for my little short legs (inside leg 27'')
                    I can never find anything I like with having to take them up. :whistle:

                    Off to craft class this morning, then on to the dentist.

                    Now having further help with my back, and I also go to a self help group for
                    coping with the pain.

                    Ah well. Must get started, unpicking is calling me.:imphrt:

                        Good morning!
                        congratulations Auntie @Beckie76 !

                        Got a busy work day today as I've got lots of contracts to fill. I need to get ahead of schedule because I am going to be flipping across the border for a few hours tomorrow. I've got to pick up some small parts for OH's 1970 'cuda so in order to make the trip worthwhile for me, I ordered greenhouse trays and domes and a small lean too cold frame. Will do a little bit of shopping while there too.

                        Have a safe day please!
