Hello all and and another welcome to newbies. A change in the weather today, I can feel it getting colder as I type. Just been out to pick roses before the rain arrives later today. Being so close to the mountains you never know whether it will rain or snow. The birds are already three quarters of the way through 20kg of sunflower hearts, I have another 20kg but that is it as I have to buy from Germany and the delivery price is extortionate. I hope they sort your bill out PDQ @WonkyWomble it's outrageous! Glad to hear you are feeling a bit easier @tui34. Catch up with you all later.
Have you got a France Rurale nearby @floralies? Ours had sunflower hearts for the first time when I went last week.
It has been raining most of the night here and drizzling today. Other than going to let out the chooks and give them their morning treat in the polytunnel I have been indoors all morning sorting out info for a Boro workshop next Monday - ancient Japanese patchwork technique born out of poverty and recycling fabrics which evolved later to give us Sashiko. My mate Nelly made this as a sample piece, just layering scraps onto a base fabric then turning it into a bag. Stunning.
Anyway - good luck @WonkyWomble and anyone else dealing with suppliers or other bovversome entities.
Keep warm Forkers old and new and stay safe.

I can sniff out a bacon bap from a hundred miles!! They were what lured me from my vegetarian pathway! It's a tad chilly in here today. Anyone got snow?

I’m afraid I unintentionally ‘cured’ a veggie fellow art student by making bacon baps …. 🤭🤫

@Obelixx we don't have have France Rurale down this way, Gamm Vert sell them but the price is prohibitive. I have asked Gasco who supply the hearts why they can't sell in larger quantities but of course had no response.
Question, how does one get other users’ names in a different colour in posts, with the @ attached? I have to type out longhand, ( although the iPad does offer me predictive text)
When I was using Internet Explorer it didn't work, but now I use Chrome and it works. Type @ then the first 2 or 3 letters of the person's name and it just comes up automatically. I find that if I then start a new paragraph the post then disappears so I click on the space bar a couple of times first.
