    To be fair,I'd been awake for 2 hours by the time he arrived. I was glad of the company.

    I was asleep at 5am, knackered after all the walking at the show and pushing OH's buggy with the failing battery.

    Plumbers have been. Downstairs loo no longer drips. The water from the overflow pipe was to do with the heating, that's sorted and the plumbers cleaned out the cold water tank.

    That was cheeky @Hostafan1 - but you need your motor so you are forgiven.
    Back from a meeting in town.  The alarm was set as I need a good hour and a half to potter about before going out but I kept hitting snooze to get back to my dream which was all about a new kind of game show that would be brilliant for tv.  But can I remember what it was about?  Can I eckerslike. 
    Now trying to book food stalls for one of the Jubilee celebrations.  The best ones are all booked up for the rest of the year.  Fingers crossed the hog roast guy can do it.

    Afternoon folks,  @Chicky thought you were talking about the badgers when you mentioned dancing diggers  :D
    I've been busy this morning ordering things for Jonah's 6th birthday cake (he's having a party on Sunday so I will be baking on Saturday.  After Jonah's party we are driving to Shrewsbury for a family get together.  I decided Hubby needed something new to wear and that I needed shoes for the dress I plan to wear.  If they don't fit when they arrive I'll have to have a rethink.
    Have been potting on runner beans as they grew too quickly and it's early to put them outside.  Some of them kinked during the process so I might have to sow new ones if they don't survive.  I also planted toms and cucumber plants in the greenhouse.  I'm wondering whether to plant the peas out or is it too early

    @Yviestevie the dancing diggers are on my photo on page 67. Chicky knew about them. They do a display like a slow dance, quite impressive as so big and there are fireworks too which don't really show on the photos. Plant out the peas, they are hardy. I sow them directly outside.

    I have planted out the peas and put the beans in the greenhouse.  I'll know in a couple of days if the beans have survived I suppose.
