In more depressing news, I have been asked to take part in an on line tutorial on the management of patients with chemical weapon injuries. I really hope it is not a sign of what might happen.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team
Oh dear @punkdoc - that does not augur well at all. I haven't looked at the news yet, just enjoying drinking my tea with the sunshine streaming in the open back door as I wait for my visitor to arrive. I put him up with a friend in a local b&b last night. The Saharan dust made for an eerie atmosphere for his arrival and then it rained, but much brighter today and we have a couple of fun things planned.
Hello all, wet and miserable down here. Trying to find someone who makes stairs as our man who was making ours for our extension has had a heart attack and can't work anymore, everyone else seems to have given up or retired, good job we have a stout ladder! We have our court hearing tomorrow morning but won't know the result straightaway. That is good @punkdoc that you can pass on your skills, lets hope that they are not needed. Our neighbours have Covid, OH found out yesterday while chatting, luckily outside and not near him. Catch up with you all later.
Thank goodness we have people with your expertise, @punkdoc Always a good plan to hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. A lovely sunny day here, but we’ve spent the morning cramped into the downstairs loo, replacing a leaking cistern filler. Now enjoying a healthy tuna salad with walnuts, cranberries and avocado, and a walk round the village in the sun this afternoon. Hope you start to feel better soon, how debilitating, @Busy-Lizzie
Good afternoon and Happy St Pat's Day to the Irish! I marked the day by sowing 3 rows of spinach this morning. Â I've done some weeding but the ground is still quite soggy. Â I also sowed some courgettes and cucumber (Calixto) in pots. Â Not warm enough yet for toms and peppers.
@punkdoc  I heard the fears of this on the news.  Doesn't sound good but isn't it heartening that you have been called upon with your experience in the field? @Busy-Lizzie  I had your syndrome yesterday.  Feeling much better today so hopefully you'll be back to normal tomorrow. @didyw  Glad the sun is shining up your way - it's gone on holiday (to you) down here!
Still murky here and cold cos of lack of sun.  Supposed to have cleared now but no, still dry and dusty tho we need a good downpour to rinse all the foliage. Cars will need something more.
Weekly shop done this am. Most people wearing masks and trolley disinfectors and hand wash still there. Good.  Filling for fritata cooked for tomorrow and a chilli con carne base cooked. Need to do a lot of dusting before I can carry on painting but not in the mood so I shall go and sew instead. Need to stay clean for dancing.
I sincerely hope such skills won't be needed @punkdoc but better to be prepared than not. Hope you're feeling better @Busy-Lizzie.  You need a good menuisier @floralies. One of our neighbours in the new builds is one but a tad too far for you.
Stay warm, dry and well everyone, whatever you're doing.

Lovely sunny day, after a hard frost.

I have to get lunch for Adam and dinner for the 3 children. I feel sick at the thought of food.
Daughter will be back late this evening, parent teachers meeting.
