    Good Morning and G’day all. 
    Many Happy Returns to the Birthday girl - anything planned? 
    Suffering with another neck spasm/stiff neck since yesterday morning - bit easier since last night but I’m still walking like a robot! 
    Have a good day all. 
    My garden and I live in South Wales.

    LG - let's just hope Bow is unnecessarily self-critical and does well for the next 2.
    It seems she was (though her report of how it went convinced me, too, that it was a no-hoper) - got a late night email effusively offering her a place! Which has certainly put her in a better frame of mind for the next two. 

    Happy Birthday to Wonky! Hope you have a good day :smile:

    I'm on a mission to clear up the end of the garden this spring & summer - very messy patch where everything gets dumped / stored. I'm a hoarder so you can probably imagine what it's like: old pallets, bags of sand, plastic pots etc all under some enormous leylandii. The problem I have is that whenever I'm sorting another bit of the garden, things get moved to the end... There's nowhere left to move those things to while I clear up and sort them. It'll be good to reclaim that space though. 

    But today and tomorrow is mainly auditions. See you later!

    Wonderful news LG, well done Bow!
    Afternoon Pat 😊
    Auntyrach, hope the neck sorts itself out!
    Nothing planned for birthday, we have a few friends coming over for the evening on Saturday and I'm meeting up with a friend Saturday morning for a stomp in the countryside. OH is off with me today so busy pottering and not working so if anyone could send me done warmth and sunshine, that's all I need...oh and quiet, immobile neighbors! 🙄😀

    Have a lovely day with OH Wonky ((hugs))   Some warmer weather would be welcome here too ... flippin cold out there brrr!!

    Well done to Bow 👍 

    @AuntyRach hope that neck is easier soon. 

    Ive just had a man called ‘William from BT’s technical department’ phone me up ... apparently he’s worried about my internet connection and asked if I was in front of my computer?  I said I hadn’t got one 🤥 and asked if he thought I should buy one?  He muttered something that sounded rude and hung up on me ... that wasn’t very nice of him was it 🤣

    Poor William - and how sweet of him to be worried about your internet connection! If I were you, Dove, I'd immediately give him access to my bank account so he can fix it and bill me seamlessly.

    Hope you have a good extended birthday, Wonky - it's piddling down here at the moment so I won't send any of this weather over.

    Sorry to hear your neck has 'gone' again, AuntyR. Very difficult to work when that happens. Hope you can find the cause and alleviate it.

    How's the weather on the island, Liri? Can you hear me...........?

    Wonky the sun is trying it's best here but the cold wind isn't helping, an ok day for the greenhouse or similar. Have a good day anyway.
    Well done to Bow LG.

      Have a great day Wonky!

    Well done Bow.  Let's hope the next 2 go well and then she'll have the agony of choosing.

    Sorry you're aching AR.  Must admit, I'm a bit weary after yesterday's exertions and have a stiff trapezius on the left side.   Very tender.

    Sunshine here for now but plenty of cloud and wind and rainy bits too.  No gardening as I have machine patch this pm and then dancing later so I need to be clean.

    Enjoy your day everyone.   Hugs to those who need them.

    Allotmentboy, thanks! I've got two tops on one large jumper and a body warmer and will not be deterred! 😀
    Thank you Obelixx and LG 😊
