    Good morning all. I have a lazish day planned with just a visit to my friend to check out her grey oyster mushrooms on the monkey puzzle tree logs and have a lazy coffee with her. She has a wonderful garden too, a woodland one.

    Woke early, OH still out for the count, so I got up and finished reading the Jack Reacher book I got for Christmas. Better stick the kettle on soon.
    Have a good day, all, and hello to the newbies!

    Morning all, Spent part of yesterday sorting seed packets by planting dates….. definitely a good way to start the year. Off out to peruse new bedding for the new year… just discovered of course that my duvet is a “discontinued “ size so none of the old covers will fit if I buy a new duvet! I swear ikea are out to make me spend a fortune.

    Anyone tried posting a new discussion this morning,  I keep getting told I’ve already posted and on a ban!

    Strange @Lyn ... at what stage does that happen?

    Good morning Forkers everywhere.   Hazy clouds apart but bright sunshine here and still warm so I may get some weeding done this afternoon.   Further chilli processing on hold till I get some CSI gloves - ended up with so much juicy chilli heat on my fingers yesterday that they were tingling but I now have an ice cube tray full of blitzed chilli cubes to use in curries and Korean dishes and loads of seeds to grow some more.

    I hope all aches and pains from falls and ops are healing well and that everyone has a good day. 

    Do you need a new duvet @Jacquimcmahon ?   I just wash ours at the launderette then tumble them in their biggest dryer.   Come up lovely.

    Wrote it all out,  chose category title and content, pressed post,  told in couldn’t do that and was on a ban for 600 seconds,  came back later.  Still the same.
    Got it stored in drafts now.

    Had you recently flagged or reported something @Lyn ?  That can lead to a temporary ban if you do a few in a short period of time.

    Hello all. 
    I wash duvets at the launderette too, or the cleaners in the SM who wash them but costs slightly more. That reminds me, I'd meant to put a clothes wash on.

    I hadn't any plans for today but the sun is coming out after a grey morning so maybe I'll go in the garden.
