    Hi all
    Dense fog and heavy rain here, not a gardening day.
    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    We need it Hosta, it’s been so wet, nothing like in Cornwall though, landslides and flooding. Karen almost got blown over, just as well she’s a big(ish) girl. 
    Were you ok delivering yesterday? 
    Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.

    Little Kitty is fine, she’s eating well and using the little tray.

    lots of fallen leaves blocking drains, but nothing too out of the ordinary

    Been piddling down here for the last hour or so too. I'm sure I can find another tedious indoor job though - if my neck and arm can stand it.
    I have found that my arm is much better with all the hammering, post fixing  and sawing I've been doing. The physio did say that - if  I'm doing any heftier work I dont need to do the exercises. Perhaps I should suggest to them that a bit of concrete mixing and stob skelping is better than the exercises and they could introduce that for future patients  ;)

    Good morning.    We have a bit of a shiny thing too @Hostafan1 but it hides occasionally.

    Well done @Lyn.   Kitty too.   Clever puss.

    Saw bits of the Seven Continents while cooking dinner and bakinng a cake @Dovefromabove but have it recorded to watch properly later on when I can pay attention.   I think I have inherited @punkdoc's PITN as I'm being treated to PMs now.

    OH doesn't do any seed sowing @Chicky.   Maybe he should try - if only to make him respect my babies when he's having a weeding blitz.  Pics of greenhouse progress please.

    Well done with that shower @Fairygirl.   I need to do a fix on our pole thingy that the shower head moves up and down on.  The old one broke.  The new one has compatible fittings but, thanks to not-too-clever shower cibicle design by our predecessors, I can't get behind th etop one to tighten the screws............

    Off to ice that cake now and do some prep for this afternoon's patch and mosaic sessions.

    I think it's a right of passage. I had a phase of them too. All unwanted, unsolicited and unanswered.

    I don't know if anyone watches the breakfast news on BBC, but there was an item with Paddy McGuiness's wife about the problems they have in car parks when they use disabled spaces. They have autistic 6 yr old twins and another young child. Someone challenged her [while the blue badge was displayed] and she responded very eloquently. I'm not sure how she had the restraint when she possibly felt like punching him. She gets that cr*p every week. What is wrong with people?
