Good morning all, lovely sunny day here. We have the landlords coming round to discuss the kitchen then off to Ikea, I want a cheap high chair for when my grandchildren visit and also some jars and bottles as planning a jam and cordial making session with produce from the allotment. Also picking up some bits for my niece. And some scented candles obviously. i must be unusual as I love unblocking sinks it’s so satisfying. Hair doesn’t bother me at all.
LB glad you found your keys.
Must get up, my sister is away for a few days and so is lest daughter so I have fish birds and cats to feed and plants to water this morning!
Morning Debs. I hope that you are allowed a good wander around IKEA. It is a fun shop to browse in (a nightmare to negotiate in normal times though!) I was so happy when my nearest store moved the market place, where all the small accessory style items (and plants) can be found, to the ground floor as the upstairs area is just a nightmare. I have to steer clear of the scented candles though because I am allergic to them. Good luck with the menagerie!
My most favourite 'mucky' job is cleaning out my gutters. On my house they are easliy accessible with my big step ladders. There is nothing quite as satisfying as getting a big mulch of leaves clear of the down pipes and the water gurgling free.
Cacoethes: An irresistible urge to do something inadvisable
Morning everyone . It was very sunny when I woke up .Now it’s dull and looks like rain . I am hoping to go in the garden today . Lots of indoor jobs to do also . I am expecting a parcel this morning. See you later .
Morning Ruby and Hazel. No worries Hazel, your tales of the pipes didn't put me off at all. I don't mind cleaning pipes, in fact I like the job, just don't like hair in plug holes. I cannot believe 23 is going to be 3 years old next month. To infinity and beyond!

Morning everyone, Had trouble getting on here this morning. Had to sign in......i never sign out 🤷♀️ Woke a few times in the night too, but not so bad as the night before. The sun is out, but it's very chilly out there. Put the recycling bin out and it was surprisingly Cold. Have fun at Ikea Debs, I really like the market place. Could you pop some candles in your basket for me please......they do a pack of 5........or is it 6🤔 cream candles. Different sizes to arrange together if you want and unscented. Love those. And a couple of lanterns.....I'll send the money via AL. 😉 Goodness Hazel, little 23 will be 3 already 🤗 time does fly. Mind you my youngest poppet will be Soon! Will probably do some weeding today, after all the rain, I'm sure some will have appeared. Have a good day everyone take care
Morning all, Have been out in the garden doing some planting, deadheading and tidying, spotted a comma butterfly, haven't seen one in this garden before. Next doors nettles must have attracted it. They don't 'do' gardening so the weeds run riot. Works quite well they provide the nursery and I provide lots of food.
I like the odd trip to Ikea not keen on flatpack but like the market place for bits and pieces. Found it really useful when First and Secondborn were heading off to uni.
The grow so quickly Songbird. Gabriel will be two in a few weeks it's simply fled by. Have a good day everyone.
Landlords have agreed new kitchen work starts end of August so that’s good news. Booked carpet man to come tomorrow to price up front room carpet Sorted out cats and plants for oldest daughter.
Time does fly baby George is one very soon hard to believe. I am looking forward to seeing more of him as things change.
Lily I’ve had problems getting on here too after several attempts over the day. It’s sunny here at the moment and the starlings have been on the bird feeders. Yvie I’ve pre COVID over time had the odd trip to ikea but find the air not very good but I did get a reasonably priced rug from there and a decent size. Enjoy your visit Debs. Hazel glad your pipes are all clean, not a pleasant job. 23 three already. LB hope you’re enjoying your day and seeing new growth emerging.
