    The spell checker should say ‘I am seated at my desk’. I am sat means somebody put you there.
    Seated makes me feel like a nut and sitting implies willingness to be here :#  The rest of the family are off on adventures today and I'm sat here earning money for them to spend.

    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    Hi @wild edges,

    No you're not .... you are messing about with a gardening forum.

    @wild edges.  We do a lot of "sat sitting" which covers all sorts of eventualities.

    Tea break. o:)  The great sky gods are busy filling the reservoirs back up so I'm not even braving a run to the greenhouse today.

    It's been beautifully sunny all morning but now it's tipping down - just when I need to go out, going to get drowned by the look of things.

    I've never had any interest in Halloween celebrations, just more imported Americanisation.  We have a 'No Halloween Callers' on the door and it seems to work.  As it's chucking it down here at present that should discourage all but the most hardcore.
    Quite...we'll be celebrating Thanksgiving next.
    I was in Lidl this morning ...half an aisle with Halloween tat & useless sh1te being sold off for pence. I think the whole thing should be banned.

    A few years ago Sainsbury's tried to sell a load of 4th of July tat.
