Yawn yawn - wakey wakey..!! Mk 4

Morning all.

Haven't we been blessed with the weather lately, it's been positively gorgeous. Mind you, could do with a drop of the wet stuff now I think.. Not too much mind.

Have been busy doing some odd jobs about the house and garden the last few days, trips to the tip etc. Still got an awful lot of clearing to be done, but I'll get there if it kills me! I'm a tad excited this week, as my Greenhouse is being delivered on Friday. :yess: :happydance:
I just hope that if it does rain, that it's dry again by the weekend so the chaps can come and build it!

Well, a day of pottering and ironing beckons, so I think I'll put the kettle on for one more cuppa before I start.

Have a wonderful Tuesday everyone. xx

 

been up since 3am lovely looking day ahead of us up here,doing a clients garden today or at least tackling some of it -a sloping bramble and whin wilderness:gaagh: grass up to my knees , double :gaagh: oh well nice relaxing cup of tea or 2 before i get the bairns organised for school and make a start,hope everyone gets the weather they want or need today

 

Good morning everyone,

Its warmer here, but of course...its raining.

 

Good morning everyone,

Nice to see other members popping by to say Hi:yess: and it is nice to hear what others are doing in their day:D

Shiney,hope that you don't have too much extra to do in the run up to your big day as there is still a month to go and you don't want to ruin your health before it gets here.We often say it would be nice to have a bigger garden but don't think we could manage too much now at our age and getting stiffer joints :D

Joolz,had a quick loom at your album photos and you ahve a nice sized garden and it will benefit from the greenhouse when it gets here at the weekend and if you are anyhting like us you will soon fill it :D

Bam,know what you mean about wildernesses,my father in law is 91 and has a very big garden and his is running away with it's self and refuses to pay someone to work on it {he has the money}We spent for hours last Sarturday clearing a bit for his runner beans and sweetcorn and it nearly killled me in the heat soi you have my sympathies:yess:

Penny I bet you are looking ofrward to the spring and getting a lot warmer weather than what you have been getting of late .We could do with some more rain though {ten spots fifiteen minutes ago :yess:}

Anyway,we went over to the allotment last night and got the runner bean seeds sown and watered everything and mr Kandy showed me all the rabbit proof netting he has put up but I forgot to take some photos of it for my records :wallbang:

Here is the photo as promised of the sun {dog as Mr K calls it}Hope you all have a good day

 

Hi Shiney,

We have cold weather here now so i am a bit dissapointed with the change as i had got used to the warmth seeping into my creaky bones:yess:I cut my lawns on Monday as the back one had got quiet long in just a short time and I hadn't put the blade down to low for fear of scalping it and then the moss comes back

We only see the goldcrests in the wild,usually up high in the fir trees so can never get a good piccky of them so you are lucky to have them so close to youWhere we used to live,we had a fir tree and would often get Long Tailed Tits in it but can't remember whether we ever had a Goldcrest visit

Mr Kandy said our neighbour was trying to clear his windscreen after the rain spots had hit it,because his windscreen is filthy with dust and mixed in with the rain spots was making a mess of it

Enjoy your day

 

Morning everyone,

Its going to be nice here until around noon, and rain and thunderstorms this afternoon, and into tomorrow.

I wish i could send you some rain, Kandy.......its finally warming up to where it should be here, but its still raining.

 

Good morning everyone,

Rather chilly this morning so have put the heating back on.Dry again as well and the cracks in my borders are getting even wider through the lack of rain

Just watching the news about the people camping out raedy for the wedding tomorrow.I am glad that we are not there as once the crowds get a hundred deep whereever you are standing,when the time comes to have a wee,it would be a battle to fight your way to the loos,queue for an hour{like us women always have to}then try to remember the exact spot where you were standing,before fighting your way back through the crowds to reach the front again,the royal carriage will have gone past so we would rather sit and watch the event in the comfort of our home in the warm and with a nice clean loo just a few yards away A very large tent has gone up in one of the gardens in the village so someone is planning on making it a big event:D

Penny,yes send us some rain but make it Saturday please after the wedding.Are they celebrating it over in Canada and will you be watching it if they are showing it on TV?

Have a good day everyone

 

Good morning everyone,

Its warm here, and the sun's out....however its pouring rain...again.

Hiya Kandy:D.......absolutely, Canada is celebrating the wedding:yess:, alot of restaurants are opening early here, around 3am (8am your time)....my MIL and her sister are hosting a luncheon at noon, and they have 70 women coming, all dressed in their finery and hats(i am not going, staying home):WINK1:....and every channel here, is carrying the wedding, coverage starting at 3am.....i am getting up around 5am(10am, for you)....grabbing a quick shower, and turning on my coffee, and i will definitely be watching.

I remember when i was in grade 3, Princess Margaret was in the town that i grew up in, and the whole school went to see her, and back then i thought that was pretty amazing:D:D.....plus i got up too when Charles and Diana married:WINK1:...didnt see Andrew get married though.

Canada LOVES its royals :yess::yess::yess:

 

Good morning Woo and everyone on this special day that I and billions of others round the world will enjoy:yess:

Woo,hope you have a good day and that you enjoy whatever you have planned today with your family

Shiney sounds like you have got everything planned quiet well for todays meals.We are not having anything special today for our evening meal but hope that you all enjoy yours

Penny I have been up sice 5.30am this morning and already have the telly on to enjoy every miniute of it as I do love these special occassions along with you and many people around the globe :yess:Hope you and your family and friends and the whole of Canada have a really lovely day and have lots of happy memories of this well loved coupleMy only gripe is that I hope we don't have to know Catherine as Princess William,rather would have it as Princess Catherine:yess:Nice to see William out last night shaking hands with all the well wishers rather than being tucked up in bed.I bet it made their day :D

Looking forward also to seeing Catherines dress and the the trees inside Westminster Abbey,that she asked for I am going to get Mr Kandy

Well we have rain here falling ever so gently at the moment.It came with some force that woke me up at 5.20am but now has turned to very fine stuff so just hoping and praying that it isn't a washout for the many thousands of people lining the London Streets as I type this post

Have a good day everyone in all that you do and please watch some of THE wedding of the century and History in the making :D
