    The greenhouse roof was a solo mission,  jolly cold one too!
     OH not feeling great so let him off and got up a ladder with a silicon gun.  Seems to be holding.  Oh got me a wireless speaker for the kitchen as I get fed up with the radio not playing my music.  This way I can connect to my phone and sing away happily.  Bless him! Considering that we don't do valentines,  I got a card from him too so just as well i got him one! And steak,  new potatoes, baked vine tomatoes, asparagus and onion rings for dinner. 
    Hope everyone is having a lovely day.  😀

    Exactly @punkdoc have to sing when cooking! Radio 2 is usually good as I love jo whiley but I have an eclectic taste and radio doesn't always fit the bill!
    Enjoy your steak!

    We've never done Valentine's Day here.   Roast whole leg of lamb for dinner with oodles of leftovers for shepherd's pie anther day.   Celeriac dauphinoise, carrots and broccoli.

    Lovely iris @Lizzie27.  I went for a stroll earlier on after seeing the chooks and found we have some too around the feet of Japanese maples which have moved from pots to beds.   Great to see they've survived and are even flowering.

    Well done @WonkyWomble.  Hope the silicon holds for you.  You too @Busy-Lizzie.  Still much too cold here so I've been sorting my fabric stash and reminding myself what I have.  Loads.  Oops.  Must stop buying it just cos I like it.

    Hooray! Just seen the news, they've done it! 15 million vaccinated with 1st jabs in just two months. What a fantastic achievement!

    15 million is an amazing achievement 🎉 I hope we can keep that up. 

    Just had chicken dinner and homemade apple crumble (made with my apples back in the Autumn then frozen). Have a bag of lemons (for the pancakes) so made a lemon and herb crust/stuffing for the chicken too. 

    Have a good week ahead folks. 

    My garden and I live in South Wales. 
  • Fantastic news! Love the NHS 💙 so grateful to them, the research scientists and everyone who have worked so hard to make my jab tomorrow, and everyone else’s, possible. 😍 

    I fell asleep on the sofa and have been sent to bed ... night night all ... sleep tight. 😴

    My daughter had the same near Heathfield in Sussex - she sent me these:


    It looks like those images you see in ice-storms. Shame the mucky water has tainted the colour or else it would have been absolutely stunning. Cars were stopping to take photos apparently.
