Good morning my friends. One very unusual morning here. I'm early on the net and preparing materials for class. Connections can be overflow later and quite slow. How are you this morning? I'm pretty well. Situation is better after few days of very low spirit.
I send you hugs and kisses, and many positive thoughts from warm and sunny Mediterranean.😁
Good morning Ante and all to follow. I'm glad that you are well and hope that the internet will be able to keep up with all the added pressures. We are facing scary difficult times now after being placed into lockdown. It is now important for us to keep positive and wait this out. Those of us with gardens are so lucky. We can keep a semblance of normality by getting out into them, sowing seeds, taking cuttings and watching all the new growth appearing.

Good morning, didn’t sleep well, in a difficult situation as every day I have to mix with strangers but now cannot see the people I love. I have to go into work I cannot abandon my colleagues but I think I will avoid the buses if possible. Got today off so planning a day in the garden to save my sanity!
Ante good luck with your internet access. Keep safe everyone!
Good morning Ante & LB. An early start for you Ante.
I’ve been tossing and turning all night. The lockdown has just made the already fraught situation with FIL even more difficult. No idea how this will all pan out.
SGL - I really feel for your friend’s son. OH was an airline pilot and many of our friends still are. They are all on significantly reduced rosters - down to about 20% last weekend - maybe down to 0% this coming weekend. We are very glad OH took a redundancy / early retirement deal in 2018.
I keep doing a couple of hours in the garden each day. A productive way to get some exercise in the lovely sunshine we’ve been enjoying - and one which falls within government guidelines🙂
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down
Morning everyone, I didn't sleep well either. I have a routine check up appointment for a mammogram this morning, I really don't know what to do. Part of me wants it done but I'm also worried about going. I've got to get the bus for a start. Such worrying times ahead now. Really hope this doesn't last as long as they're predicting, Take care everyone
Sorry Tbird and Ante you weren't there just now. This is going to be so hard not being able to see the ones we love. It's like a night mare and we all hope we're going to wake up and find out none of it's true What must the little ones be thinking, that they can't go anywhere or see anyone, it breaks my heart
Morning Debs, T'Bird and SGL. Good grief Ante, I just took a look at your YouTube clip. That looks VERY cold. We have just had some wintry weather forecast for here too but not immediately. I do have to say that I've missed snow this winter. I love the first view of the gardens in the morning after a fall of snow in the night. As for now, no thank you!
T'Bird, such a difficult time for you and yours. You must await every call with bated breath. Take care my friend. SGL, you must go for your appointment. Take every precaution we have been advised to and the people doing the scans will be aware of peoples worries and will be prepared as well. You would only worry if you didn't go and you do need to look after your own health too.

When I got up this morning there was a bottle of milk on my doorstep. I normally have milk delivered on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I've just rung the dairy and spoken with a lovely, happy man. Apparently my deliveries for the foreseeable future will be Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday due to the huge increase that they have had in people wanting to get a milk delivery - in glass bottles! Not sure how that works but at least it doesn't mean my milk deliveries will cease. Anything slightly out of the ordinary at the moment gives a tiny twinge of alarm.

LB, lockdown is terrible thing, but at least we have our gardens to keep our sanity.
Debs, watch on yourself. You are doing amazing job but be careful.
T'bird, sorry to hear about your FIL. The garden will make you busy and away of problems.
I can go out just to play in the snow. No digging or planting today.
