    Good morning all 😊 
    ... again ... those blackbirds were noisy this morning ... seems they know it’s the Spring Equinox. ☕️ ☕️ ☕️ 

    @Pat E  we just get told that there’s ‘severe flooding in NSW’
    ... it’s a big place 😯

    Got to get up early this morning ... taking OH to get his jab 😁

    Ooh it’s cooling down a bit. The rain is blowing right across the veranda and hitting the windows. 🙄

    Sydney’s Waragamba Dam has started to over flow so they are worried that low lying homes below the Dam might flood. 

    We are staying snug inside, but I saw a mother roo and junior snuggling under a rose bush a while ago; but they’ve gone now. Probably better shelter up in the bush on the hill.

    As long as you’re not going to get flooded @Pat E ... we can rest easy 👍

    and now he’s whistling it and I’m singing it ... it takes me right back to when I was very young indeed 😊

    Oh @Hostafan you missed a real treat ....... Carol taking us around Bressingham in the winter .......... I love those gardens  <3

    We just had a bit of fun ... a phone call from "BT Openreach" about 'Madam's computer' ......... I confirmed that I have a computer and when asked to describe it I told him that it was a big one that I've had for years and years.  He told me that it was running slow ... I told him that it was, but that what was worse it kept showing me rude pictures ... he said that was terrible but it was a problem he could fix and asked me to switch my computer on ... I told him it was upstairs ... he asked me to take my phone up to my computer ... I explained that I couldn't do that as the phone is attached to the wall by a wire .......... he kept going through his script but was obviously unable to find an appropriate bit and I then asked him if he would fix my computer ... he said he would ... I asked him what time he would be here and did he like tea or coffee?  By then he could probably hear OH's hysterical giggling .......... he hung up on me ........ that was very rude  :shock: ... next time he phones I'll complain ...  :lol:

    I've just watched it having fallen asleep last night (during the small Leeds backyard bit). I've just got my first de cayenne seeds germinating so MD can take me through my chili growing debut. I've also planted broad beans, dahlias and split my rhubarb so loads of particularly relevant stuff for me.

    Back to grey &dull here.  Typical equinox as I recall,  at least yesterday was a sign of things to come.

    Hi all.

    Going to prick out some seedlings, need to try and pretend I can be gentle.
    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    Darn it Dove. Now I’ve got an ear worm as well! 

    Love your computer story. Makes me feel good.
