    That imoji means I’ve just sucked on a lemon, or I’m pig sick, which I am at the moment, waited for so long to see this once in a lifetime 🌓 🌒 🌑 
    Butts are an essential here, any size or shape😀😃

    I wish they'd replace it with a properly evil devil or a green, I'm going to upchuck, emoji.

    No rain here as yet. Went out to water the garden and there were big storm clouds to the west. No moon either so that's a b*mmer as well. 
    I can grump today for all of us. Got my satellite cable moved today. He came just as I had to go out. On that wall I said - showed him where the tv was going.  What I should have said was 'exactly here'. It is now in the wrong place by a foot!! Cannot work round it - shall have to get it shifted again. I wish I had the confidence to lift a couple of floorboards myself..................As it is, not only did I have to heave all the furniture round/out and lift the carpet & underlay, I am now having to have a go at sanding my own floor. Where are the tradesmen these days?? Have booked a big sander from the hire shop - never did a whole floor before - not looking forward to it. But I am determined I am not going to wait a month to get a tradesman to do it. Bare floorboards are driving me nuts and it's only been a week and a bit! Bonus with having the carpet up is that I will be able to sand all the skirting boards before painting them and be relatively slap happy with the paint. 
    I really do hope it is raining on Sunday as that is the day I had allocated for the garden this week and I have got so much other work to be getting on with..............

    That's the 'whistle' emoji, isn't it?
    I wish I was a glow worm
    A glow worm's never glum
    Cos how can you be grumpy
    When the sun shines out your bum!

    There's a distinct smell of malt in my garden.   Any ideas?

    Whistle in a sexist, builder sort of way? As in you know you've become old and invisible when you can walk past a building site with impunity?

    Your partner or neighbours or children gave an illicit still at the bottom of your garden or the slugs have started brewing their own beer.

    "  what does this emoji mean?"

    I take it to be sending kisses. Perhaps "I've just had lip implants and now look like Angelina Jolie". Or "I licked a frozen lamp post to see what would happen and now I'm stuck. Please send help".

    Not sure.
    I think it's whistling, in such a manner as to imply : "How much more of my time do you plan on wasting?"
