Morning Debs. Cool and grey here too. I think your fiancé has made the right and a sensible decision. He has no need to feel he has failed as he gave the job a fair go but those hours are ridiculous. Our health, both physical and mental, as we all know, is very important to us. He can now have a good look round for a job, where with this last experience, he can ask the pertinent questions about working hours and responsibilities before making his decision.
Cacoethes: An irresistible urge to do something inadvisable
I'll pack and load the car today. Off tomorrow. We will stay a couple of nights with friends in Wiltshire, our neighbours in our old village. They moved house. Then ferry on Saturday night.
I hope your OH finds a better job @debs64. The hours were ridiculous. Bit dishonest of them not to have made that clear from the start. Sounds as though they needed 2 chefs for that job.
Well done for finding your wife's glasses @Biglad. I keep my driving glasses in the car. I have lots of glasses for different things in different rooms, some Specsavers, some off the peg. TV glasses, gardening glasses, cooking glasses, reading glasses.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Good morning Busy. I hope that you don't forget anything! It will be nice having a catch up with your friends before you journey onwards. Which port are to catching the ferry from?

Good afternoon all. You have quiite a long crossing then Busy - depending on which French port you sail to. Will you leave early tomorrow to get to your friends en route?
It has been very brrrr here today so far. My plant delivery is between 13:00 and 15:00 today so I'm not going too far away. I see 1500 or so of Freddie Mercury's possessions are going up for auction. Doubt I could afford any!

Afties all. Thought I'd posted this morning. Have had a great day in the garden so far. The sun has been shining and there's been no wind, ideal. OH has cut both lawns and Ive pottered here and there, sorting pots, emptying pots, repotting, cleaned out bird bath, sorting bits out in the shed and generally tidying up.OH has put up two of the metal decorative panels and Ive used the smallest one at the back of a pot containing a new passionflower we bought. LB, great news about remembering the name of your mystery plant! Can't say I've heard of it unfortunately😊But I am pleased that's another mystery solved👍 Ante, lovely picture of the Amaryllis and nice colour. I've never grown one although mum used to always have one on the go. Might have to give it go sometime. Busy, , I hope you have a safe journey and enjoy your time with friends en route. Take care. Debs, a sad day for your fiancée just when he thought he'd got the ' right' job. Fingers crossed a much better one comes along soon at half those working hours.
