    Enjoy your 'trot' @Biglad. Get it up to a canter if you can.... ;)
    I had 6 and 15 @Dovefromabove. A shocker. The bonuses were lousy. If I hadn't got one in the 2nd round it would have been even worse  :D

  • Morning all,  sunny start here today,  sat in garden with shed cat and second coffee. 
    Glad to hear you will be going on your mini break Pdoc, like Dove says,  you have taken bigger risks for the well-being of strangers so great yourself as kindly  :)
    Have a good day folks,  off to work.

    Morning all.
    We are off to the SM soon. Got up very late, reading in bed.

    I hope you have a good trip @Obelixx and Possum's move goes well and you find all you want in the shops.

    Morning all, a bit stiff this morning after a 3 hour session with the pickaxe yesterday. Got up a big section of rhodo and a large conifer stump from a tree I cut down 20 years ago. I  seem to recall someone saying at the time those stumps will rot down in a few years. Not! Amusingly there was a lot of fancy rock around the roots which makes me think it was planted as a "dwarf" conifer in a rockery in the 60s. It was 30 feet high and wide when I took it down.

    Hi peeps 👋🏻

    @punkdoc - island sounds idyllic 🏝....only maybe without the palms 🤣.

    Hope the move goes well @Obelixx....enjoy seeing Possum ....its been a looooong time.

    Going to get my mane tamed today 🦁.  And while I am in town I’m going to visit the framers.  Finally finished my second Christmas project last night (miles of gold thread and 1250 seed beads) so hoping they can get them both framed in time for Christmas 🎄.  I am unashamedly using that word in September.....if they are going to try and cancel it this year, I need to get my fix in early 🤶🏼🎅🏻🎄




  • Those are gorgeous @chicky :)

    Thanks @Dovefromabove 😍.  I’m going to get them framed the same size as two pictures we already have in the living room, so I can just do a swap for the month of December 📆

    I think they're brilliant  - they remind me of the sort of stuff Past Times used to sell.

    Good idea - same size frames. Is that so that you don't see how dirty your walls are @chicky:D
    Lovely. 
    The 'dwarf conifer in a rockery' @steephill. A staple of many a Scottish garden  ;)
    Easily recognised some years later by the fact the owners have their lights on all day after the 'dwarf' grows and blocks every scrap of daylight... 
    I really must get daughter to look at these PMs. I think I've pressed something I shouldn't. Most likely. Apologies to anyone who has sent me one recently.
