    Morning SGL and Ruby. Glad to hear you got a decent night's sleep last night SGL. It does make all the difference. Constant bad nights can leave me feeling a bit raggy round the edges. Its not sunny here Ruby but at least its dry. Hoping to get into the garden myself after a quick trip to 'sco.

    Morning - sunny and dry here so think we’ll be tackling some outdoor jobs today.

    LB - The Fall is excellent - you’ll love it!

    Hmmm - just had a look on iPlayer and I can’t see The Fall (serial murder series starring Gillian Anderson).
    How are you watching it @debs64? Is it on TV or are you watching on Netflix or some other service? I could enjoy watching it again.

    Morning all, I loved The Fall too.  Looking after Jonah today as Secondborn forgot to book him into nursery.  He starts full time school tomorrow and is going for a bit of a play date there later this afternoon.  Had a lovely present this morning when some strawberry runners arrived from @Fairygirl, so I'll be eating scottish strawberries with a bit of luck next summer. 
    Noticed that the Acers have started changing colour already.  I dread the dark nights.  Hopefully we still have time for some lovely weather before then. 
    Hope you get on well with your new Supervisor Debs.
    Have a great day everyone.

    Good afternoon, I struggled to get on line am as my tablet kept jamming.  Debs have a good day at work.  Hope the supervisor settles in well.  Hazel take a break today you’ve had some busy days. LB enjoy your trip to **sco.  Lily Let’s hope you can feel more rested soon.  Topbird I haven’t seen the fall, I’ll have to take a look.  No sun at the moment and cool.

    Think it might be on Netflix @Rosie.b.. We don't have Netflix at the moment and we've got a few days away planned over the next few weeks - but I'm now seriously considering signing up for a month's free trial when we come back.

    I could easily watch all 3 series of The Fall and both series of Happy Valley again plus all the series of The Crown which I haven't seen. Probably some films to enjoy as well. Could get a lot of value out of a free month😁

    Afties all. I feel like I am experiencing Groundhog Day. It is absolutely hissing down here so I have not been able to get into the garden at all, in fact I only just made it back from a walk to the post box 3 hours ago before the rain started. Ante, I hope that you have got rain over there. We used to find that the minute we went back to school in September the sun came out!
    Sorry to hear that you had a problem with your tablet Rosie. Do a Basil Fawlty on it. It won't fix it but boy it will make you feel great! I'm going to check to see if I can get 'The Fall' T'Bird.

    Hi Hazel, yes you have misread it. It was 3 hours ago from the time of that post of mine that I walked to the post box.
    T'Bird, I can get 'The Fall' on Catch Up so I might just give it a whirl after the recommendations.
