Morning everyone, Raining here too. Just walked down the garden to pick up a large plastic bag that has blown in from somewhere. The garden is like a bog as I squelched down to retrieve it. @Chivetalking hope your mum is feeling better today. Love the Tweety pic. I slept well too Rosie, I'll join you in a cup of tea 😉☕☕ Pretty good morning pic @Ladybird4 sounds like you have the same weather as us. Do hope the sun returns soon. @Rubee are you crocheting any more squares after finishing your pretty scarf. @Topbird both those companies are good. Ive used M&S in the past, but not for awhile. But they were lovely flowers too. Must admit I use our little local florist mainly, but then most of the flowers I send are nearby and she delivers herself. So always know her arrangements are beautiful. Not like relying on the the well known delivery service that can differ from shop to shop in the nearest area. Can't guarantee you get what you ask for or the quality of arrangement. Have a good day everyone
Lily ,I received a set of very large crochet hooks this morning . I am planning to try to make a small rug when I am more adept . Need to learn more stitches .
Afternoon Folks, Congratulations to your Mum Hazel 100 years is an amazing age. Just think of all the changes she has lived through.
@Ladybird4 Just a quick question. How do you turn images around when they are posted on the site. I never had a problem until recently and it's really annoying me. I've been out this morning and treated myself to a bird house from Ashwoods. I've posted a photo on Forkers but it's the wrong way round. If I can find out how to do it I'll post one on here the right way up.
Still raining and flippin cold here too. Have a lovely birthday chat with your mum Hazel. Hope its not long before you all get together and have a proper birthday celebration for her. Made some leek and potatoe soup for lunch, plenty left for tomorrow and the freezer.
Congratulations! on your 100th Birthday to Hazels mum 🥳🥳🥳🥂🍾🎉
Hazel I hope your mum enjoys her special day, all the FaceTime chats with her family will be wonderful, what an amazing age! Did she receive her telegram from the Queen?
Yvie, I can only advise you how to do it if you use Windows and a laptop. You need to go to wherever your photos are stored on your device, open up the required picture, find the edit button where you can rotate and save the image. I know nothing of the Apple stuff I'm afraid. I can get the picture for you and put it the right way up on here if you would like. Just let me know.
p.s. RosieBB it was Chive who posted the picture of Tweetie Pie.
Cacoethes: An irresistible urge to do something inadvisable
Afternoon everyone, it did stop raining but it has stayed grey overcast & cold, RosieBB I’m pleased you slept well last night, so glad your package arrived safely too, SGL I can’t leave rubbish when I see it, our front garden collects things that blow in off the street. Thank you mum eyes are improving, each day is a little better, I’m glad you slept well too, Rubee I do admire your willingness to try new things, I have every confidence you’ll succeed with your crochet rug, Yvie did you get your boiler fixed the other day? Sorry if I missed the update, I hope it was all sorted out. LB I popped out to sweep some leaves and that was my lot, did you manage to get out in the garden?
Chive, I went out and pottered but came in about 13:45 because I had done enough and now I notice that it has gone very dark and it is proper raining - not just the spits and spots I had before. It is also much cooler and there is frost forecast again for tonight. I'm like you Chive, I am forever picking up litter from my front garden where the wind has lodged it and I pick it up from the grass verge opposite my house. This is looking a little war torn after the gas main layers used it as a car park and fencing storage area the other week.
Hazel, it sounds as though your Mum has had a lovely day. Smiles all round.
