    Morning 😘
    Lovely here but going to be hot again. I've watered and weeded the veggie patch before it gets too hot. It's a long walk up there with heavy watering cans. 

    Charlie is working at a neighbour's house again today, he's up to 30€ now, very motivated. 😁
    I am helping builder shift soil, spreading it around the flowerbeds and mixing in the compost that needs shifting from the compost heap. I'm certainly starting to lose a bit of my Corona Chub. 😅
    Have a good day all, hope you're all fit and well today. 🙂

    Morning early birds - I'm off for a walk before the hordes appear. It's nice and cool anyway.
    Corona chub @D0rdogne_Damsel :D
    Glad it's all starting to get underway again for you. We'll know where to come for a loan too - Charlie  ;)

    Morning all. 
    @D0rdogne_Damsel, yeah, I'm fine thanks. I've been told to call the surgeon's secretary to inform him about my "episode" hey ho.
    @Fairygirl, have a lovely walk.  I noticed lots of cars in Waitrose car park yesterday which had "Grockle" written all over them. Maybe they're all here to sort out childcare?

    Good morning all 😊 ☕️ 
    a gorgeous morning here with a real ‘Simpson’s’ sky. 

    I had a painfree day yesterday so tried a bit of knitting ... within ten minutes my left shoulder and arm were so painful I had to stop ... an hour later it was still so painful I had to take paracetamol 🙄 
    Grrr I don’t like sitting without knitting ...

    That's a bu**er @Dovefromabove  :/
    Sitting without knitting eh? Are you in the palace with the chalice?  ;)

    Thats a pain @Dovefromabove ......literally 😮

    Just come in from some early morning gardening, before the sun gets going.  Done some potting on and sowed some sweetcorn and courgettes.  I know it is very very late, but it is only over the last week that I’ve realised that we are actually going to have veg beds fit for planting in this year.  The mammoth weeding sessions are bearing fruit 😀.  My very late sown tomatoes, cucumbers and sweetpeas are looking very good this year - you told me on here they would catch up .....and you were very right 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻.  So fingers crossed for late sweetcorn and courgettes too 🤞🏻.

    Now its time to go collect my SM shopping (we “clicked” yesterday).  Then I am going down to sit in Dad’s garden whilst he sits in his conservatory.  Should have followed my instincts and done it weeks ago - haven’t seen him since 4th February - but hey ho, I am simply a mere mortal 🙄
