    Gardeners World tonight.  This is a worm that lives under pots. This is a worm that lives in burrows.. GRRR What are the scientific names ? So I am shouting Lumbricus terrestris  at the screen.  Some expert!!!

    :) Don’t know why but I’ve never had a bad reaction to a jab. 5 mind aftef I’ve had if I’ve forgotten about it. I’m very lucky  :)

    @WonkyWomble very pleased for StepWomble... hope he enjoyed his celebration supper  :) also very pleased your Darjeeling stash has been replenished   B)

    Hope all of you suffering from Callum’s attentions have got your hard hats on and your hatches well battened ((hug))

    Obelissk, are you able to buy Telfast over there? Worked well for my itchy bits.

    Still nothing on our news about “Callum”, but hope everyone is ok. It’s all about Florida’s worst storm “ever”.  

    Im glad that I’m not the only one having bother with my computer deciding what word I wanted to type Dove. Drives me bonkers. I think it’s because I type too fast for the system to keep up.🤭

    Congrats to Wonky’s step son. It’ll open up a whole new world for him. 

    I also had a heavy, sore arm after my flu injection in April.  Maybe they’ve made the mix stronger this time.

    Hi Pat - have you had any rain yet?
    Think there's a few folk here would gladly send you some. South Wales seems to have taken the brunt of it. Hope Wild edges is alright - he's in that neck of the woods.  :/
    'Norn' had a lot of grief too - plantpauper sometimes posts on this thread, so hope she's ok too.
    Dry and calm here for now, but we're expecting lots of rain soon. 
    Congrats to Wonks' stepson too. I'm hoping fairylet will pass when the time comes. It will make it easier for her to broaden her horizons and get another job.
    Glad I've not had the flu jab now - I don't want two sore arms  :D

    Good morning all  :)
    wondering how S Wales rellies are getting on ... probably fine ... they’re practical folk.

    Morning all and good evening Pat!.

    Pat hope your hubby is feeling a lot better?

    weather is very wet here. I’m off to the hair dressers this am, then taking my hubby to the emergency dentist but they don’t open until 3pm, looks like his back tooth as cracked so he’s been in pain all night 😷.
    im hoping for a dry weekend next week as I want to clear leafs up and cut my lawn, can’t do it during the week as it’s dark when we get home from work now.

    Morning Dove. Meant to say those other pix of the rainbow were lovely. One is more like a fogbow :)  
    I almost laughed last night watching the Scottish news re the Fair Isle now getting 24 hour leccy. We moan when there's a power cut, because we just take it for granted, but we never think there are still areas of Britain which don't have it on tap! Wonder if they've sat up all night with all the lights on..... ;)

    Morning all, afternoon Pat, 
    Woken by neighbors again, nothing new, having coffee then may go to a car boot sale. Thanks for the congratulations for step Womble Fairy, Dove and Pat, he had had a year of commuting to another town with bad train service and bus replacement as an incentive to pass!
    Hope oh tooth gets sorted Flumpy, horrid to have tooth pain any time, but the weekend?! Not on!
    Have a lovely day all!
