    Thinking about your yoghurt making, Dove. Our Persian friend used to make her yoghurt in a saucepan very successfully. I can remember seeing it setting in a tall pot on the bench. 😊😛.  I’m currently going through a goat yoghurt phase too. I have Greek style goat yoghurt on my toast every morning. Yum!

    Morning Pat. Your weather is just too weird.  ;)
    Pitch black outside so no idea what ours is like.

    Good morning all 😊 ☕️ 
    Happy anniversary to Mr and Mrs @Pat E 🥂 
    Should be a bit lighter with you now @Hostafan1 ... and you’ve got a sunny morning ahead ... according to my phone. 😎

    Good morning.  Happy aniversary @Pat E and bon appetit for the lobster.

    It is wet here with plenty more to come according to the rain radar.  Good, altho OH might not be so pleased as he's playing golf today.   Cool too so I need a cardi and might have to think about socks.   Apart from Monday which will go down to 6C, temps are still in 2 figures at night so no duvet yet.

    Well, I had hoped to get some planting done but that can wait till Tuesday.  Now to find something else to do that doen't involve h****work.  Not in the mood.

    Enjoy your Sunday everyone.

    Happy Anniversary @Pat E 😍😍😍

    Back from Istanbul - an amazing city.  We walked 45 miles in the 3 and a half days we were there 👣👣👣......and took 3 ferries ⛴.  Lots of really ancient stuff, amazing ceilings, and gorgeous tiles 



    Back to a very autumnal looking garden (pretty soggy too).  Off on a shopping trip today and then out for dinner this evening (it’s Birthday Eve 🥳).

    ((hugs)) for @Dovefromabove on the loss of your friend.  Sounds like he leaves a great legacy of memories.

    And belated Happy Bday to @Fairygirl ......funny to think you would have been celebrating your 2nd birthday on the day we got married 😉

    Afties folks. Hope Pat and Mr Pat had a good dinner and are now having a good sleep  :)
    Lovely photo @chicky. You've packed a fair bit in. Yes - I was  just a teeny, weeny toddler....  :D
    Been nice here, although rather chilly first thing. Not quite a frost, but sharp, at 4 degrees again when I got up at half seven.  Two fleeces needed @Obelixx. I had to laugh at you needing to put socks on! Your rain will be helping the ground a fair bit now- hopefully. 
    I've been doing more 'stuff', clearing sweet peas, and general bits and bobs - or pieces and bobs, as we call it. Oldest fairylet could never remember the two phrases, so she combined them. :)
    I'm just about ready for my new compost bins - coming tomorrow. I haven't had a look to see if little froggy is still under the hoghouse, so I might do that now that I've had my lunch. 
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



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

    Night all. 
    Thanks for all your lovely wishes. We enjoyed our lobster very much. Haven’t had one for yonks. 
    Been watching tv for ages. I think I’ve outgrown Jules Holland. didn’t enjoy his artists at all.
