Hello all. The rain has reached here now, very chilly after the lovely warm days we have been having, quite a shock to the system! Catching up on indoor things today.
No rain here and none forecast. Clear skies which means cold at night and an expected -4C on Saturday morning. Good job only one of the chooks still has a bit of bare bum needing new feathers.
I need to do an SM run today which means staying clean so now h****work or gardening till after. Sewing then.
Have fun everyone, whatever you're doing. Try and see the positives and enjoy them. This pandemic and confinement cr*ap will pass eventually and wintery weather. I can do 32C @Pat Enow I've had some practice. Enjoy your strawberries.

Well the heavens have opened 🌧 ... just as well I popped out earlier to pick chard for the Ribollita for lunch ... lucky too that the kind neighbour delivered the compost bin a bit earlier than planned ... a large dark green dalek ... perfect 👍
Now to stir the soup as I pass the hob on the way to the studio ...

We had soup that we had combined and stored in the freezer some weeks ago. I made chicken soup from chicken drumsticks and Hubby made soup from the tough stems from broccoli. They combined well. 😜. I’m working on emptying the freezer so that I can start again with fresh stuff.
Oh dear ... poor @WonkyWomble ... as if it’s not hard enough to make a living in lockdown in the rain ... and then some thieving scoundrel comes along and steals her trug with her hand tools in it as she’s unloading her car. 😡

Oh no @Dovefromabove and poor you @WonkyWomble. Grrrr. Sending hugs even though i've only just joined the forum. Hope bad karma follows the thief till s/he mends their ways.
Thanks @Busy-Lizzie and @Desi_in_London (not sure if you know that Wonky is my daughter and a professional gardener). Sadly it’s the area where they live ... there are some lovely folk there but also some unprincipled chancers. The tools were in a lovely wooden trug which had been made as a present for her.
Fortunately there are some early Black Friday deals around so they can be replaced ... but I’ve a feeling suspicious types may be in need of a Cricketer’s Box when she gets her new secateurs. 😡 ✂️

It's been a quiet day. I've done some HW.
