    Morning all. 

    Just done the census so will make some breakfast now. Looks a bit grey outside but aim to do some more pottering today. Found some cucumelon seeds in SM yesterday so going to try those! 

    Anyone see the rugby? The Wales v France match was nail-biting right past 80 minutes! 

    Have a lovely Sunday folks.

    Morning all,  we did our census yesterday.  It's a bit brighter here than yesterday.  We had a good view of the ISS last night, tracking just S of us. I  know it doesn't look much from the ground but it's still fascinating that it's up there.  I agree about Monty removing the box it looks so much better.

    Aunty Rach I grew Cucamelons last year. We enjoyed them, but had to keep them covered on the trellis from birds also enjoying them. 😳 I must try them again next spring. I’ve still got some seeds.

    @Lizzie27 My laptop has a cursor which I can't get the hang of; my son, being 'in computers' sent me a mouse and an attachment for the laptop. Much better.

    We did our census last night just in case the site crashed today. So much less hassle online than the old paper forms ... although I do love paper and pen and real writing 😊 Years and years ago I used to have to decipher old legal documents and handwriting used to help me picture the writer ... 

    Good news @Loraine3 :D

    We watched all the rugby yesterday @AuntyRach the Wales v France was so exciting right to the end. Have been struggling with heavy nosebleeds the last couple of days so feeling rather lazy at the moment, I guess the very cold weather set them off again.
    My family laugh at me @Loraine3 as I also have to use a mouse with my laptop, it is so much quicker for me.

    Greetings Forkers.  Started off sunny but is now cloudy and dull and very cold.  Can someone please turn off that northerly wind!!   Fed up.  

    I am much better with a mouse than the touch pad but I seem to kill them and my laptop is old enough now to have slightly dodgy connections in its USB ports so I put up with having a flighty cursor.   Frustrating.

    Love your views @Pat E
