    Is that 6 months all at once PP or bits and pieces?   I'd find it confusing moving between and running two homes and gardens and would always forget something essential.

    Speaking of which, Busy and her OH move to the new cottage on Friday and may need some positive waves to help sort out all the boxes.  She's too busy to post at the mo but says Hi.

    Yes Hazel - all too easy to spend such a sum isn't it?

    Ready tucked up in bed for Jaws ... the film was on tv tonight ... we’ve recorded it ... we like the film ... it’s far less gory than the Book @ Bedtime reading 😱

    Sweet dreams all 😴🐑🐑🐑

    Six months in each place Obes. I'm in the happy position of working all Winter and resting gardening all Summer. 
    I live a charmed life and every day I appreciate it.  <3
    eta I sew when it rains and today looks like a sewing day...  :)

    Sounds like a great arrangement Ppauper 😀.  Good luck with the move Lizzie 📦📦📦🏡

    We were promised rain today, but it seems to have evaporated overnight.  Not keen on the new BBC weather provider .......they seem to get it more wrong than right.  Need to download the Met Office one 😳

    Morning all. 
    @debs64, they're thinking kidney stones, but I've had all sorts of scans etc and they never find anything. Little bleeders eh?

    Good morning all.
    We were just saying that we haven’t had to water pots and baskets for about a month. Forever drizzle, usually turning to rain.

    Morning all- it is still morning isn't it? Afties Pat if you're around.
    Lousy looking day here too - 12 degrees and weeing down. Meant to clear, but it's not looking like it at the moment. Ideal for the grass seed I've sown, but whether it'll ever germinate is another matter.
    Youngest's birthday so I may have to make cake. Chocolate is the preference, but she doesn't want any icing on it. She's weird.  :D
    I know people who've had stones in odd, and very painful,  places too Hosta - but you'd think they would show on a scan of some kind if you have them. Very strange.
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    I wouldn’t want icing on the chocolate cake either fairy.  Just melted chocolate for me. 🍩🍫

    I’ve know people with stones as well, but they usually show up and get pain more frequently than 9 monthly.
