    they're doing their meds round, so after 9 seems to be the answer,  ;)

    Yes, for some reason they start the wake-up, breakfast and meds rounds really early and then things quieten down at about 9, presumably so it's all ship shape for when the consultants do their rounds.

    Drive safely @Hostafan1.  Be careful how you hug!

    Enjoy all the social stuff @Chicky.  Lovely to have the time for all that now.   

    It should stay dry here today and the radar shows any rain skipping by just to the south and west of us.   OH has gone out to tidy up piles of weeds and wants to pick a lettuce and a cabbage he says are ready for eating.  Grumping cos I said no.  We have veg in the fridge and larder to eat up first and stuff in the ground will stay fresher in the ground.

    I need to get on with patch homework for tomorrow but will pop out later for a while and think about where to plant the pawlonia I've been offered.  I really want to get some weeding and planting and transplanting done but have to wait a few days till I'm free to play.

    Have a good time everyone, whatever you're doing today.

    I've just got through to the ward and I can visit any time after 11.30, so I'm going to head up for then.  I've told the nurse that he doesn't like being told what to do, but not to let him away with anything.

    Bon voyage @Hostafan1 :)
    Perhaps hubby could do with a Hattie Jacques style matron to keep him in his place  ;)

    Great news, Hosta  :)

    Thanks for the upholstery advice, Obs and Lizzie. The old sofa has a loose cover so I will be using it as a pattern, as much as possible. It is, quite literally, disintegrating though, so there'll have to be a certain amount of interpretation. My Mum's old furniture that I've inherited all has white covers, which don't suit either my poor housekeeping or my dogs. So I'm figuring out how to do various bits by taking the current covers apart. 

    It rained yesterday, and forecast to rain again today, so sewing it will have to be.

    Hi all

    Cold and grey here, BUT the government has just told me to go and buy some plants, and they will pay :)
