We are supposed to be having an eclipse tonight at 8 pm. If we can remember we’ll try to get a photo. Knowing our past tries, the clouds are probably going to be in the way.
Good morning all 😊 ☕️ lovely pics @Pat E … so green 😊 there’s always something to watch there isn’t there? Hope the weather holds for the haymaking … and the eclipse 🤞
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Mild with 18°C this morning and the sky is grey. A "maussade" day is how the radio forecast describes it - quite aptly.
@Pat E The full moon at the moment here is orange and very bright. Enjoy the eclipse.
I had my pneumonia vaccination too - on Friday @punkdoc As I had this vaccination 2 years ago (as apparently it is a 2 year one), they gave me Prevenar this year which apparently is the follow-up to Pneumovax. I didn't know it was a oncer. Flu' vax done too - I have to wait until January for the Covid 5th jab as I had the last one in July.
@D0rdogne_Damsel Enjoy Paris in the autumn - and the concert. Renting the restaurant premises could be a good idea if you wanted to expand. Then at least you get an idea if the position is a good one for what you wish to do and if it's going to work. (and that you can handle two busy businesses).
Today's saying is: (oh dear) Temps couvert à la Saint Geoffroy, amène trois jours de froid. Hope not!
We are doing the weekly shop today and OH wants to go to the big DIY shop so we'll go to the big SM near Périgueux instead of our smaller local one. I can never find anything there though as it's unfamiliar.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Morning all, it started off sunny but now clouding over, some rain forecast for tomorrow. Lovely pictures @Pat E, the farmers here are collecting their bales of hay from the fields ready for winter feed. More pottering in the garden today if painful joints will allow, I'm trying to do things that OH would help me with but he is busy tiling our new shower room so needs to be left alone to swear on his own! I heightened the netting on my garlic as it's now coming through, this was to stop neighbours cat lying on it, but no he's still lying on top grrrr.
Wrap up warm for the next three days @tui34! Not overcast here - sunny but now rain. OH in town picking up prescriptions and the shopping. He did take a brolly with him in the end. Phew. Last night's get together was fun. A good array of food made by the ladies, including some homemade membrillo of which I partook with the smallest amount of cheese. And this morning had notification from the Town Council that they are awarding us a grant towards the costs of next year's planting. It helps that our Treasurer is also a Town Councillor and it was she who filled in the grant application form (in my name). It's not what you know... We have never been offered a pneumonia jab.

Grey here too.
