    Aloha everyone,

    A beautiful warm and sunny day :SUNsmile:

    I had to go to the village hall to sort out some things and now I'm off to town to try and sort some plumbing gear :sad:.

    I should be in the garden instead! :doh:

    Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

    Aloha!

              Hello, what a lovely thread! I was struck by its title,because I am concerned as my hardy lavenders and fuchsias (which are all in pots) are still asleep, or worse, are completely deaded. Maybe if someone in authority, or may have a louder voice than me, can shout a Wakey Wakey in their direction and stir the little blighters!

              ps I am very much a newbie to the forum and am still trying hard to find my way around it. I hope it's ok to browse/lurk until I find something in which I can contribute... also although have gardened for many years, I'm still learning, making mistakes and hoping to provide a nice garden not just for me, but to hopefully give pleasure to those who pass by.

                  Morning all!

                  Hope you are well and that a wonderful weekend is ahead of everyone!

                  Not been too well here but hopefully that will be changing soon! Fingers crossed! It is nice and dry at the moment (there has been flooding in the past week!) but apparently will rain later... Here's hoping for good sunny weather for everyone, and enjoy the weekend! :):spinning::hapfeet:

                    Aloha everyone,

                    @wiseowl good to see you up and about :blue thumb:. Best wishes to you and the WOOs for the weekend. :grphg:

                    @pattie You're very welcome to the thread. :dbgrtmb: It's just a friendly morning (and sometimes at other times of the day) brief chat. No need to lurk much and don't be afraid to ask questions or make comments. Being knowledgeable about things helps but don't let that stop you commenting - it's never stopped me :snorky:. You'll see around the forum that we chat about almost anything. :)

                    @toppington hope you're feeling better soon. :grphg:

                    As usual, I've been overdoing things in the garden and am suffering a bit today. I'm having the usual trouble with my back and finding it difficult to get in and out of my armchair :old:. My arm is painful, just muscular, and my arthritic thumbs are a bit seized up - but apart from that I'm fine. Well! That's apart from being a bit nutty and grumpy - as usual. :heehee:

                    We have friends coming this evening for dinner so am planning the meal and will make it an easy one. Starters will be smoked salmon and avocado with a little salad to make it look more colourful - haven't decided what dressing to make. :scratch:

                    Main course will be grilled trout, with a light touch of lemon, spring onion and ginger flavouring with Rosemary roast baby new potatoes and stir fry veg (finely sliced onion fried to a caramelised finish, with carrots, French beans, courgettes and mushrooms).

                    Dessert will be gluten, dairy, sugar and fat free apple crumble and a mixed fruit salad of fresh mango, melon, pineapple and blueberries.

                    Apart from having bought the trout yesterday I've only just planned the meal whilst typing this :)

                    I'll get Mrs Shiney to give me a treatment on my back and use the Scenar machine on my thumbs. If that doesn't work then a clip round the ear and a 'get on with it!' will have to do :lunapic 130165696578242 5:

                    This morning I'll spend a couple of hours trimming the lawn edges as I can do that without bending :thumbsup:

                    Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

                    Aloha!

                              Good morning everyone and thank you very much for your warm welcomes. One thing I'm very good at is chatting:smile:.
                              It's a bit of a wet day here so no gardening today, but hopefully tomorrow.
                              I hope the day is good to all.
