    Morning all.

    Worried about my garden @Pat E. Maybe the weather forcasters have made a mistake. Maybe they meant somewhere else with the same name.

    I hope the forecast sun comes out, I'm thinking about gardening. Not sure how to get the compost out of the big Dalek. Last time I tried shoving a spade through the hatch I couldn't get any compost out. Stuck fast. It's 2 years old now.

    damp and dreary here today. I managed to get through another birthday yesterday without incident, which is all I ask of them these days. Not feeling very chirpy just now, so sorry for being a bit of a grump.

    It'll soon be spring  :)

    I can remember the Church Plain in our village being white with snow one 6th June @Pat E ... it was when Wonky was small ... I remember the date because it was my grandmother's birthday. 

    @Busy-Lizzie ... we just lift the Dalek up and shovel the heap of compost into a barrow ... the only problem with that method being that you have to either use up the whole heap or put the Dalek in a different spot and shovel what compost you don't use back into it. 🙄

    Oh I missed your birthday @raisingirl 🎂  … so we’re both Aquarians 👍 and probably both Chinese Dragons too … I rather like being a dragon 🐉 Hope the lack of chirpiness is resolved PDQ 🤗 ☕️

    Hello all, I'm home from the hospital with my new hip! How strange it is to feel balanced again. I'm looking at the garden longingly in the sun, best get a seed order done! OH has done a good job topping up the bird feeders. Now waiting for the physio 🤸

    I'm an earth monkey, apparently. Born on Chinese New Year's day in that year, which freaked my mother out because I was born covered in hair. Dad was a wood pig. How much wood could a wood pig pig if a wood pig could pig wood? But I digress... Thanks for the hugs, both. I need them just now 

    Welcome home @floralies. Hope you heal up well and quickly and can get out there in the mud in no time  :)
