    Evening one and all. I can't adjust to the 'new' time - maybe it will sort itself out overnight! 
    Enjoyed a sunny day gardening today - hope those who could managed some too.
    Post dinner chores - then I'll pop in later.

    My garden and I live in South Wales.

    Evening all.

    My stomach takes a few days to adjust to new meal times when we change the clocks, AuntyRach.  And as usual, one person forgot to put their clock forward and arrived at church near the end of the service today... not me this time!!

    Today I cleared the decks for the electrician, who's due to come tomorrow to do 6 little jobs for us.  It'll be lovely to have a proper light in the en suite at last.

    Hope you feel a bit better soon, Punkdoc.  
    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    I did get out into the garden in the end and attacked the long border. Been relaxing in front of the TV all evening.
    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    Still trying to learn the chords, let alone the rhythms, Hazel. Sore finger tips too. 😄 fun though, and nice people.

    Glad your garden onslaught has begun Lizzie 😀. And that you had a good time with your Uke group Pat 🎼

    we had a good walk on the South Downs - although it was too cloudy to really appreciate the views this time.  The aim is to complete the rest of the South Downs way in stages - having done the Brighton to Eastbourne stretch in our marathon effort last year.  Next time we’ll start at Winchester and do some of the very first stretches.

    Dark this morning, but the birds are chirping merrily away. We keep seeing a buzzard perched in one of our oak trees - we’ve always had them soaring over the garden, but never seen them stationary before.  There is a twiggy mass in the same tree ......think we might have a nest .....much excitement 🦅🦅🦅

    Morning all. Having a bit of a problem sleeping due to aches and pains from gardening yesterday. 

     Chicky you are up bright and early. Exciting news about buzzards. Keep us posted.
