    OK to feel down for a short while Pdoc but the, as you know, you need to come out fighting for your sake and, more importantly, your BH's.  Plenty of support on here when you're ready.   

    I have made 6 wee socks for Cosmos.   Next trick will be to get one on.

    Good for you LP.  Great thing to do.

    Big hugs from here too Pdoc

  • And from me, PD.

    I'll be a bit sporadic on here from now - leaving early tomorrow morning for Scotland.  Internet access only on the mobile from the top of a nearby hill for the next 3 weeks.  image

    Chicky, hope you have a fantastic time in Aus.  image

    Best wishes to all!

    We have a prediction of minus 2c tomorrow morning. Our raingauge registered 44 mm for the last two nights. Very exceptional and appreciated. Our water tanks capacity are 27,000 litres each So can see us through most long dry spells. We aren’t free and easy with our water though. We always remind visitors to have short showers. In facts have a little sign in the shower recess, just for visitors.imageimage

    I hope Cosmos’s Paw gets sorted soon. It occurred to me that those little finger puppets I knitted last winter might just be the thing for him. Let me know if you need the pattern. Very quick and easy.image

    Thinking of you Punkdoc. 

    Memory gone now. Best wishes to all.

    Morning, very wet during the night. Think I might sink if I go into the garden

    Pat  glad that you getting it and your tanks filling. We take so much for granted here!

    Chicky, you best remember the Australian rhyme. "Slip,Slop, Slap"   Slip in a top, slop on some sunscreen and slap on a hat!  my kids were brought up on this at school  bet you are all so excited.

  • Good morning all image Dry here and definitely milder than yesterday. Hope we're not in for too much rain ... Wonky says her best wellies have split and she won't be able to get some more until the weekend. Fortunately the splits on top of the foot not the sole. 

    Weve just watched a magpie chasing a sparrowhawk around The Rise ... fascinating.
