Unfortunately, I originally agreed to another job later this year @Ladybird4. This one came about as a temporary 'fire-fighting' vacancy arose that needed filling on a sister project. 2023 is already written off!
Good morning everyone . I couldn’t get to sleep ,came down and had a cup of tea . Still wide awake .I will read for a while then see if I can sleep.I hope no one else is awake .We haven’t seen TBird for a while ,I hope she is well .
Good morning Ruby, sorry to read about your disrupted night. Maybe you have gpt back to sleep now. Have a cat nap later if not.
Biglad, 2024 might be a possibility to shake that onerous burden off once and for all.
Having my new toilet fitted today - not heard from my plumber so hope there is no hold up. I keep falling over the boxes in the garage. Hope the resident mouse hasn't moved in.
Cacoethes: An irresistible urge to do something inadvisable
It’s a lovely sunny start to the day here and is forecast to become hot, so I think I’ll be enjoying sitting in the garden in a shady spot rather than working in it (other than water the plants later).
Beautiful cacti flowers @Ladybird4. 🤞 your plumber arrives today.
Hope you get the relief from the steroid injections they promise you @Songbird-2.Â
Morning all. Warmer today and the sun is trying to break through the clouds. It should clear by this afternoon when the temperatures will be higher than before, but not as high as some of you or the rest of the UK. The North East seems to be in a vacuum of cloud, wind and coolness at the moment. Woke up very stiff this morning and joints a -flamed. It doesn't look as if the steroid injection has worked, unless I'm a late developer !😂 I live in hope. OH wants to paint shed and side gate a different colour to what they are so are going to the famous DIY store today. Hope also has a new project of creating some doors across two tall shelving units to create cupboards.....see how the painting of the hall etc keeps getting pushed back?😂  Then the is a footy match to watch after teatime for him, so he will have plenty to do. I will be taking it as easy as I can today. For those with sunshine today, enjoy and make the most of it. For others, have a nice day in whatever you do.Â
Lovely sunny day.  Lilys tv in process.  Hazel I’m sorry you’re not getting the relief may be it takes a little longer as you say.  I hope you do rest.  LB hopefully your new loo will soon be sorted.  Off to hang the washing.  Rosie
Very hot and sunny here all day but now the sky is cloudy and we have thunder! So excited I love a proper thunderstorm ⛈ and the rain will be very welcome. I water religiously but nothing beats rain 🌧 does it?Â
Ooh @debs64 I am very jealous here! I would love a great big noisy thunderstorm with lots of lightning. My plumber arrived about 13:00 after ringing me to let me know he was running a bit late. It took him about an hour to complete the job and he did me a big favour in taking away the old toilet and cistern. I am very pleased with the new loo. You lift the handle for a small flush and press it downwards to get Niagara Falls. I learned that all modern cisterns are only allowed a maximum capacity of 6L these days. I definitely know that my last one didn't hold that much.
