    We've got wine, chocolate and sticky cakes in - what's not to like!

    I'm positive I'm going to put on weight. The sooner we run out of goodies here, the better!
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    I've just phoned in an order for the delivery of some bags of compost and soil conditioner to my local Notcutts GC.  (I bought some the other day, but not enough duh) They can definitely deliver on Wednesday but will try to make it before then ... there is a delivery charge of course, but by doing some judicious buying of 3 for 2 etc, and using my Privilege Card 10% reduction, it cancels out the delivery charge.  I'll have a bit more compost than I actually need, but what the heck ... I'll just have to grow more plants  B)

    Dieting here for the last 5 weeks and 4 kilos and several cms down.  I did buy a small bar of Belgian chocolate with hazelnuts ate the SM this morning, just in case I need a boost.

    Everywhere very quiet and calm.  No patrols.  No crowds, no queues, no pushing and shoving, no panic buying.  Everyone very friendly and co-operative.   Got everything we need except coffee filters but then OH hadn't put those on the list.

    It's a lovely sunny day and getting warmer by the minute.  Lots to smile about.

    Lovely here too @Obelixx and very welcome after the amount of wet stuff.
    Seeing a very sludgy Mr Froggy in the depths of the pond earlier lifted my spirits too  :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



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

    Good.   Frogs here are in full voice and so are the birds.  It's great.

    OH said there was a pair of frogs 'getting together' in the side alleyway last evening ...

    The frogs in my pond are in full gang bang mode. The whole pond vibrates as I walk past.  There is one less mouse in the greenhouse eating my seeds.

    There has been one less mouse in my allotment shed for the last 3 weeks.

    @Dovefromabove However will you cope with having to grow more plants :wink:


    New video game arriving tomorrow!

    And I've got my seeds all sown, mostly. Waiting on some "Tiny Tim" tomato seeds to arrive in the post.
