Afternoon All, pleased to report a negative result thank goodness, LB Thank you for the tips & info on the seeds that’s really handy to know. I’ve not tried Sweet peas before so this will give me a good head start I hope 😊 I’ve got a seed compost ordered to collect in the week so I can get them started next weekend. I hope your handy brothers team wins the match ⚽️ Biglad I half expected you to have a skating rink in the garden, but it still sounds very damp and breezy there, Enjoy your evening everyone.
Sorry T’bird I didn’t turn the page, thank you it sounds like the Poppies should be straightforward if I can find a spot they like. You’re good cleaning the oven that’s not a job I relish doing, good luck with finishing off. Hazel Thank you yes I was lucky today. I hope you’re feeling ok & taking it easy, it’s that time of day for me when I feel 😴
Great news with your negative result Chive. Huge relief!. T'Bird, when I cleaned my oven last year (gosh that seems an age ago!) the feeling of relief once it was done was tremendous. It has made me a bit obsessive about cleaning it every time I use it now - not the full deep clean I gave it before but any tiny crumb or splash and I'm on it.
Sorry Col TT.
Just watching the snowy pictures on the Beeb news. Incredible. Can there be any sadder picture than an over turned gritter??
Cacoethes: An irresistible urge to do something inadvisable
Thanks @Songbird-1. I wrongly assumed that the 4 vent holes in the cover would provide enough air flow I've had it open for an hour this afternoon, drained anything holding too much water and repotted a couple of things that looked in need. Put the soggy stuff into the shed (the bonemeal had a few mouldy bits but I'll still use it) and binned anything that was too manky/ruined.
I learned my lesson from the previous 'blow away' incident so there's weighting down and strapping to fence posts in place.
Haven't managed much proper work yet so will be a longer stint this evening. Timetable reshuffle due to wanting to be outside in the fresh air for longer whilst it was light
Depending on the result, might not be fancying doing much after the 5pm game though
Thank you for your support it is a relief that’s 3rd time lucky for me, but I’m sorry for those less fortunate. T'bird Crumbs Oven doors are heavy I don’t know how you’ve lifted it off. I hope the fire is now lit and Jaffa cakes are out, Hazel Those poppies look gorgeous the orange is a really zingy colour and it looks great in that setting. I look forward to seeing mine flower one day (all being well). I’m not surprised you’re flagging after last night, so put your feet up and relax if you can. Have a nice evening everyone.
Hazel , thank you for the info and for taking the trouble to go outside in this cold weather . I will be looking for that lovely shrub on the net later today .

Chive - good news on the all clear!
Think it might be time to light the log burner and have a cuppa and a jaffa cake or two...
