    I hope you get some rest later Yvie.
    I got back to sleep around 5ish, now up for coal face duties. 
    Lovely sunny day here, but none too warm. ( heating on )

    Hi all.
    Don't go to a GC on a Sunday morning. Ran out of MPC yesterday, thought quick trip out, they were queuing to get in. Oh well there is always tomorrow.

    When you live at the coast, avoid going out on a sunny Sunday.  Roads jam packed this morning so the peace of the garden for the rest of the day.

    Son was doing the PA at the Beowulf Festival on the River Deben last weekend ... we thought it would be a lovely place to go ... only an hour away on normal days  ... and then the sun came out  B) and the roads were packed :o  ...... we decided to stay at home and relax rather than sit in the car for a couple of hours minimum (and that's just to get there). :/

    I try and avoid all shops on a Sunday as I hate the fact that they are open at all! Sunday is for gardening, relaxing and prepping for work the next day.
    So I've potted on the blueberry bush, weeded the gooseberry bed and had a tidy. I'm planning a pond but am at the sitting in the garden watching where the sun and shade falls to see if I have a suitable spot stage at the moment 😊

    I rather like working on a Sunday. 
    Not so much this morning when I locked the keys inside the back of the van. 
    I called store 14 times ( checked call log ) to no avail. I ended up using the customers' phone to call Hubby ( I had no signal on my mobile ) and he had to drive down to store. What did they do.......? Sent me , not one, but 2 text messages saying " call store" !!!
    NO SH*T I thought , why didn't I think of that.
    I eventually got a call to say the phones were on "silent" and I got hold of "Central Transport" and they told me where the secret over-ride cable was located. 
    What a palaver.
    I'm sending the customers a £20 voucher for their help.
