Morning all. Hi @Pat E - hope the tsunami does less damage than expected...
Lovely here too, but today I shall just admire it. Need to make sure I don't twist at the mo - back is just grumbly most of the time, but it took me a long time to put on my socks, so I'm taking it easy.
Perhaps your OH's customers yesterday hadn't dropped big enough hints about knives and cookware as potential Christmas presents, @Dovefromabove, so they're now treating themselves? Or maybe they only realised they didn't have enough/the right size of pans until they were cooking for 10 over the festive season.
How's your Achilles, by the way, Dove? Hope it's settled down again. I know they can be a pain if they decide to play up...
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
Morning all, cold and sunny here -3 deg this morning, bird feeders filled again, I can't keep up with them. Too cold to anything outside,and OH's back is twinging and he has a Stye on his lower eyelid also annoying him! How is your plumbing @Busy-Lizzie? or is it fixed? that is your drains of course
Morning (checks clock, yep, still morning). Very dull, but quiet here. I must go down the garden to check on all the aubretia plants I grew from seed last year (can't get used to saying last year, yet!). If they've all taken, it should look gorgeous in the spring. Apart from that, not much calls...
My Achilles is almost painfree at the moment thanks @Liriodendron 🤞… in the end I tried a short course of Ibuleve gel twice a day. Not really s’posed to use it with my BP meds but the pharmacist thought that as my BP was behaving and I was only going to be using a tiny amount it would be better for me to use it and be mobile than sitting on my btm all day which isn’t at all good for me.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
@Biglad.... I'm blaming your comment of earlier this morning for the cricket performance, everything seemed under control at 80/2 or so when I went for a walk, all over when I got back ( although checking your timestamp I guess it might have turned already by the time you posted!)

The sun has come out? Should I get my gardening togs on?
I think we all knew what the eventual outcome would be though.
It's turned out gloriously here this afternoon - spring is in the air
