    Please unpromise that....we need lots of cute pictures these days 😀😀😀

    About to go for our daily constitutional - will be harvesting wild garlic (with the neighbours permission) to make pesto later.  They always say yes, in exchange for a jar of said pesto 😋

    @chicky  ... enjoy 😊 
    I received a (well sealed) tub of wild garlic pesto in the post today from @WonkyWomble 😋 She used home-roasted local walnuts and cashews in it.  I’ve frozen some of it in ice-cube trays ... the rest is in a jar in the fridge under some extra EVOO ... it smells wonderful 🤤

    I brought some wild garlic/ransomes from Belgium and am nurturing it in the hopes of being able to make my own pesto with it one day.   wild garlic in this area is the 3 cornered leek variety so I've got some of that to nurture too but it's a slow business. 

    Hope you find loads @Chicky.   What will you plant in your extended herb bed @Dovefromabove?

    Hi everyone, well get us in the modern techno age we have been on Zoom for family chats as it was youngest GD's birthday yesterday. She is 12 going on 21, it doesn't seem 5 minutes since her pics looked a bit  like you new GS @Hostafan1. (being a bloke I think all babies look the same of course  :D) Cloud & cold wind quickly replaced the sun this am so not been far today, descaled the coffee maker earlier I must be bored!

    Been a bit of a stressful day, staff at ARI so busy that not surprisingly the phone does not get answered.
    Turns out MIL does have COVID and she is 86 and not that well, so who knows.

    Keep well everybody.

    hugs to you all @punkdoc.
    I was due to see surgeon next week, but can't get through to hospital. No need for me to see him now but wanted to make sure the appointment was cancelled.

    You can only hope for the best @punkdoc, and I'm aware that's of no comfort whatsoever. 

    You don't expect the entitled to go without their 'organic kwinoa' do you?  :/

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



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