Lily Your oh will have been pleased to see a friend yesterday. I’m glad you slept. I hope you’ll have a relaxing evening. Hazel I’m glad to hear the wasp situation is sorted. You’ll be much relieved. Topbird enjoy your days away. LB I hope you had a lovely catch up with bestie. I visited mum and dad and it was lovely to see them both. Chive I like heucheras. I hope yours enjoyed a drink. Lily I’m glad the fresh air has helped your headache. Have a good evening everyone.
Evening all. Chive - a kindred spirit - I have to 'rescue' poor, neglected plants in SM. I get very upset when I see them just left to die. Joyce liked heucheras and it was she who warned me about the dreaded vine weevil which is quite partial to heucheras. Keep an eye out for them. I'm glad that you don't have to wait too long to get your ring back. Bestie and I have picked our meals - steaks but we haven't yet seen the specials board
Brrrm brrrm T'Bird! Sorry the rain marred what sounds like it could have been a lovely garden walk but at least you managed a nursery 'sweep' and you are adding plants to your 'wanted' list. Maybe the thunderstorms won't materialise tomorrow. Actually, they are forecast for here as well and I bet they DO materialise as we are going out for lunch.
SGL, glad that being in the fresh air seems to have blown the cobwebs of your headache away.
Hazel, sorry to hear of the passing of the family friend. Always a sad time but a time to remember happy times together.
Biglad, if the cricket is anything like yesterday's debacle I wouldn't bother watching it. It was disappointing. Maybe there has been a complete about face though and England could have rallied - not seen any today.
RosieBB, glad you had a nice visit with your Mum and Dad. I bet you had lots of gossip too.

Good evening .Ilove heucheras .This morning I planted seven in the planter that OH made . I have be growing the heucheras on for some time .Chive I hope your heuchera rallies. They are quite tough . Good that you will have your ring back shortly .T Bird I do hope the weather brightens up for you .BL I hope your new job is satisfactory .Lily it’s good that your headache has gone . Hazel my thoughts are with you, as LB said remember the good times . My OH has got his appointment for his Botox injections ,which will take place next Wednesday . He will go and come back by ambulance . This is to minimise any pressure on the area that will be injected .Also his legs and feet are swollen as a result of vascular insufficiency,he will have more room in an ambulance .This means I will not be able to accompany him which I am not happy about .But he will be with medics and he will have information with him about his health issues . I am signing out ,sleep well .
Hazel so sorry to hear your sad news. It’s probably wise not to go in the circumstances and you can remember at home. Biglad congratulations on the new job. I hope all goes well. Goodnight everyone.
Ruby, that appointment has come a lot sooner than you expected and fingers crossed that it will help your OH. It does seem a very radical treatment so I hope he isn't too uncomfortable afterwards. I remember that planter your OH made. I bet it looks lovely filled with heucheras.

I am signing out for tonight people. I have been dipping in and out of the Olympics all day but most were repeats of things I'd already seen. I was delighted however, seeing the heavyweight women's weightlifting over the past few days, which I watched over and over again, because it made me feel positively SKINNY!
See you all tomorrow.

@Songbird-1 So sorry to hear the sad news about your friend, Hazel. Sad that you can't go to the funeral, but very wise in the circumstances. You will have many happy memories to reflect on. Thinking of you. @Rubee glad that your OH has heard about his appointment. Hope all goes well. Shame you can't go with him, but at least he is being taken and brought back by ambulance, so will be well looked after. But still very worrying for you left at home, I know I would feel exactly the same. Big hugs Ruby. Bet your trough looks beautiful filled with Heucheras @Ladybird4 thank you, the fresh air certainly helped. Love the snoopy pic. @Chivetalking its still pouring down here and seems a lot cooler too. Night night everyone, hope we all get a good night's sleep
LB you’ll be looking forward to tomorrow’s meal and your outing. Have a lovely time. Lily Alfie is much happier now and has been very good😇 thank you. He’s even stopped chewing the chair covers. He has a follow up appointment with the vet next week. I’m going to go back to bed now. I was just checking my electric bill finding that it’s over estimated and miscalculated. I’ve sent them an email as I can’t get through by telephone even though I pressed ring back I’ve not heard further. Anyway night night.
Good morning RosieBB and all to follow. I get so cross hanging on the phone waiting to be answered. I suppose these odd times may mean that there are not enough operatives TO answer calls but it is still very frustrating.
Thought for the Day
You don't realise how old you are until you sit on the floor and then try to get back up.

Good morning all to follow. I did get back to sleep for a while. I woke up I hope all of you slept well. I could hear the rain through the night tap tap tapping, quite rhythmic. I can’t believe it’s Friday already. That reminds me I must put the bin out. I wonder if we’ve won any more medals overnight. It feels cool. Time for a cup of tea.
