Clari......my dreams are probably more important to me than real life sometimes.....I can recall and recite , verbatim, what conversations goes on in them .....my wife , yep the one who studied psychology, is now enthralled by some of the stuff I can just roll out ......mine thankfully tend to be more of the flying variety ......but also frustration when I just cannot step onto a step ......I can lift my foot but just can't make it
Home now. I even managed to pop the van onto the drive and have a cuppa with Hubby before my last drop at one of our neighbours. She's a teacher and I had 45 minutes to kill. I was still early , She's happy , hubby's happy ,I'm happy as I got a cuppa, and Waitrose were happy I was back early.

So after Clari's revelations........we had a bit of a melt down with our water system today .....but finally we are back on stream ......Heath Robinson would be proud of this ...really.....sometimes we have to stick a tube in and suck some of the stuff through
On another note ......before I came to Russia .......I never used moisturiser ....never had a manicure or pedicure ......my wife changed all that .....I stared to buy stuff in Boots I would never have dreamed of...like this stuff.....but what pisses me off....yep"grumpy old git " again.....you find something which really works for you and then ....boom.....it's no longer available .....is it just me ?
Something similar happens with supermarket own brand foods. You buy it once or twice - nice. You buy it again and it's horrible at worst, bland at best.
The supermarket has said, " How can we make it cheaper without anyone noticing?"
The answer is - you can't. There's only so many olives you can take out of the jar.

Evening all.

That's a win win win WIN Hosta.
Managed to pick the raspberries before darkness fell (just!).
Dacha ... I know it's frustrating, but you need to keep your foot up until it stops being so sore!
I'll rest on the sofa with you 'cos my back really feels the lawnmowing I did this morning
Hosta that's good planning
Liri ... if you want some more raspberries come and help yourself ... we just can't keep up with them ...
Now it's time for Coast to do the wonderful East Anglian coastline

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
I think your wife would be concerned as to the company you keep if she knew of my dreams.
Dove, I could swap some tripe for your excess raspberries...
Raspberries , what a coincidence, Picked last few Autumn berries today for Porridges breakfast tomorrow
Had a good day at allotment today
Hope you are all well
Botanics and mechanics.....

Not just you Dacha: I can't find it online anywhere.
