Hosta - glad to hear it. I was slightly concerned that you'd just been left screaming and roaring on your own!
Well - there's sunshine here, but a right chilly breeze. Good for the washing though. Roast beef for dinner, but I can't be bothered doing it. Does anyone fancy doing the prep? I can offer one of these in return...
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Hi everyone. Yum - tagine... I really must make one as my tagine pot is currently just an ornament on kitchen shelf. I actually dusted it the other day it has been untouched for so long!
A very pleasant September day outside - just had a lovely potter and picked up a few more apples which had been deposited by the high winds.
They do look good FG but none for me ta. Just had a bowl of spag bol, a bit late but I didn't land till 8pm and had a car to unpack and hysterical dogs and purry kittens to greet altho Minstrel is starting to look almost cat like.
Left Namur at 10am and 13C in sunshine - a relief after early downpours as no parking close to the apartment. Hit more rain as I headed south west but no storms and no jams. Did have to stop for a zizz as I was awoken at 6am by more street cleaning machines and chaps bringing in stuff for the fêtes de Wallonie. It's going to be a noisy, rowdy and, for some, drunken weekend.
Got home to find our grass has turned green as we've had an inch of rain in the last week. OH asked what the chandelier was for. To hang from the ceiling! Definitely not a hat, is it?
Early night for me I think. It's going to be very quiet with no Possum or visits or major shopping expeditions. You'll be in the same boat next week Chicky but you do have your trip to look forward to so it will fly by.
Hosta - yes, keep nagging till they fix you! Diary of food, activity and symptoms is a good idea.
Liri - sounds like you've had a good holiday, especially if you need a rest now. Know how you feel.
Greetings to everyone else. Hope all is well and WW's pains ease.
Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.

Glad to hear your dad is doing ok, Chicky, and hope he now makes steady progress. And are you feeling any benefit yet from the injection, Wonky? Enjoy the enforced rest!
Sorry you've had another "episode", Hosta. Hopefully the medics will get to the bottom of this problem soon.
We've pretty well finished the rental house upgrade so I've had an evening to do something different, which is very welcome. Tomorrow all that remains to be done is to clear up after the builder, who is putting a vent into the cellar, and to chase up the boiler man for the gas safety certificate.
On Saturday I'll be celebrating by going to the Harrogate autumn flower show with a college friend. Looking forward to it!
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

It was superb Hosta
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Did that myself last Sunday

Hello all.
It's quiet again on here this evening...
Nice to see you back, LilyP.

Oh, sorry Obelixx. Missed you there while I was slowly writing my post. It was Lily who had the tiring holiday!
Glad you've had some much-needed rain.
Oops - got my Liri confused with LP. Comes of being tired. Glad the rental is finally coming together. You've been working hard.
I know what you mean about being tired... I used to be able to do this sort of thing for days on end, but don't have as much stamina now I'm 27...
