    Good morning all 😊 ☕️ 

    Think you’ll find I beat everyone @Nanny Beach ... I was posting in the wee small hours as my shoulder was painful again

    I must give OH a nudge ... he’s having a lie in too

    There’s a full moon tonight. It’s just starting to peep over the eastern range.👏

    It was beautiful at around 10 last night @Pat E ... apparently it’s another super moon ... they seem to come around quite frequently nowadays ... or is that ‘nowanights’? 😆

    Good morning all  :)

    I remember my dad talking about the dreaded Colorado Beetle @Dovefromabove when I was younger too - we helped keep an eye out for them in his veggie patch. He had serious worries about them starving the country of potatoes. Apparently drowning them is the best method - jam jar of washing up liquid water at the ready!

    I also noticed how bright the moon was  - I keep waking between 3 & 5 am, wide awake thinking about things at pace & then falling into a deep sleep. I will be so glad to get back to my usual hectic routine - least I slept without any issues then! 

    Off to check the greenhouse now and then to CdeG to check the cats and the plasterer. 

    Good day to you all.  :)

    Sorry it’s a poor photo. Just stood on the front veranda and used my iPad. It’s amazing that you can barely see the top of the range. 

    Flopped on the lounge again. I’m tired tonight because I couldn’t get to sleep last night for ages. I think about 4am. 😡
    I’ll probably crash tonight.

    hi Dove, this could turn into a competition!! Hope the shoulder is feeling better, I saw the moon before I went to bed, I used to call myself the pyjama gardener, was told I couldnt use it on here because there was already one, but I have never seen it.
