    And to you too, you probably need it more than me, as long as I don't look at the deep hoof prints throughout my borders. I have been very selective where I have gardened today, so I don't have to look at them.

    My OH has a short nap after lunch every day if he’s not at work … has done ever since I acquired him in his mid 20s. He also has a sleep every evening after he’s washed up the supper things.  He says it’s what keeps him so fit, healthy and vigorous 😎 😉

    Evening all. Just catching up on the last day or so of chat.

    Sorry to hear about the damage punk - you must be gutted. Hope the rags give the right message both chemically and metaphorically! 

    Just settling down to watch that Freeze The Fear programme. Bungee jumping…it’s a no from me. I don’t even like coming down a ladder! 

    Take care all.

    My dahlias are starting to show up :D A very exciting discovery after a disappointing day - Terrible run this evening that I stopped after 2 miles and still no news on the new job I applied for (that took a lot of courage as it's a complete 180 on my career, not sure I can hack the NHS much longer) back at the start of March and I still haven't heard anything back, was supposed to hear in late March/early April! It says on their website that they've had an unusually high number of applicants so I guess they're just triple and quadruple checking before they offer interviews but I've fully convinced myself I haven't even got a look in. 

    I love the end of Spring/start of Summer when everything starts to pop up again :)

    @takhana  Don’t give up hope yet. Lots of things delayed by Covid absences, parents taking time out for the school holidays plus the Easter break itself. Keep looking though, something better might come up in the meantime.

    We’re tucked up under the eaves at MIL’s, listening to the church clock chime the quarter hours. Bliss. 
    Night night all … sleep tight 😴

    Sounds lovely Dove. Sleep well. 

    Does she still play the Ukulele?  I stopped when Covid stopped our group meeting and haven’t caught up with the group since. We now spend much more time here at home away from people who might be spreading invisible viruses to us.

    Good morning all 😊 ☕️ 
    Slept like logs … now OH is making the first coffee and tea of the day. 

    Yes @Pat E she still plays her ukelele … in fact it’s the first real practice since the lockdowns tomorrow evening … she’s really looking forward to it.

    Hi all

    Lovely day here, early morning patrol completed, no further Deer activity.

    Good news, PD. Cool and a little breezy this morning up on the bridleway for the morning dog walk. Someone had left the gate open but the sheep don't seem to have wandered off. OH is off to the village shortly, and then into town to try to get the part we need to get my car back on the road. It's been out of action for months. A long saga I'd really like to get to the end of now.
