Morning all. Glad you are feeling better @Busy-Lizzie but will get properly looked at when you are back in France. Glad the menfolk will have much to amuse them in your house this afternoon @Dovefromabove! Nothing wrong with a bit of daydreaming @D0rdogne_Damsel - your dreams will come true at some point. Hope the break does your daughter good @AnnaB. Things are gearing up for the forthcoming Garden Market here. Will be delivering flyers to all the local shop this afternoon. And hoping to meet up with the chap who is organising the big parade for a Festival we are planning for the summer, to walk the potential route as I'll need to apply for a rolling road closure for it.
Got out this morning to do bits and pieces to fill the fridge and cupboards. A lot of faffing around and many people as it is school holidays for some. Children are sent down here to stay with their grandparents.
Luckily it's a beautiful day. 19°C this afternoon. Exactly my temperature!!
Evening all, sunny and bright today but with a chilly wind. Had a much needed back and shoulder massage this morning and on the way dropped off stuff into two charity shops, I'm trying to gradually get rid of 'things' we no longer use or want.
After lunch I weeded the lawn side of the front lawn main borders and found one of my penstemons had survived after all so I'm pleased.
Love to have been a fly on the wall at the Star Wars party Dove, I think that's hilarious.
It will be good for both of you if your daughter has some down time @AnnaB, but she doesn't owe her ex anything.
Sounds as though you are going to be busy again @didyw! Garden market sounds good, wish we lived nearer.
I was supposed to be making spaghetti bolognaise tonight but have just found that there isn't enough spaghetti left for two. I'll have to make do with fusilli pasta instead.
Thanks as ever for the positive vibes you all send, much needed and much appreciated, it is so difficult sometimes, and frustrating, that something fairly straightforward should become so complicated.
Anyway, I'm dreaming of garden plans, and as regards the tulips ( what cheerful flowers they are) I think I'll go for the bright colour mix at the front and maybe a little bed of red and white at the back in a little bed.
Good wishes to all, spring is well on the way.

Good morning all ☕️ Another beautiful morning here in sunny Norfolk.
Son has had some busy days just lately … yesterday he went with me to Italicar to collect my car after its service and MOT, and he spent a happy half hour talking Alfas with Luke … then his afternoon was spent talking guitars with his friend James and playing Star Wars with James’s four year old son … he pronounced himself exhausted and he’s planning a quiet day today … I might even get out into the garden for ten minutes!

It's a lovely day so we are going for a wander around Southwold. OH wants to see how he manages walking, last time we went he took his mobility scooter as he hadn't had his hip replacement then. We'll lunch at the lovely fish restaurant by the harbour. OH had booked it for last week but then I was ill.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

Still full of cold, so Moira is out cutting the lawns, first time this year they have needed doing.
