    You sound just like me bekkie, hate being I the gym when it's sunny but not been at all for a couple of weeks now.  I do walk between 2-4 miles every day with the dogs though.

    That quiche sounds lovely Dove, do yellow courgettes taste much different to green ones or do they just add colour? I might try some of those next year image

    OL - I think the yellow ones are slightly sweeter - but others disagree - but they do look prettier on the bush and the plate image

    Hope salt mines are OK lily and Pandaimage

    I love the look of your food Dove.  How's a person meant to diet with so many temptationsimage  Talking of temptations - will Verdun weaken and stop at his favourite nursery?

    There was also Follyfoot. The lightning tree and all that.  What was the one with the white horses - "on white horses let me ride away to a land ......."

    Hope your throat improves soon OL.  What about Skippy - he wasn't a horse eitherimage

    How about My Mother the Car .."A 1928 (?) Porter that's my mother dear she helps me through everything I do......."   Seem to recall the bloke bending down talking to the front grill. image

    Mr Ed was the best, especially when the wife used to shout Wilber !!  and Ed had to stop talking..I'm chucking remembering....I'll get my coat image

    Morning all.

    Loved Champion and any programme about horses when I was a child. Only recently saw a film of Black Beauty, made me cry.

    Podded rather large broad beans yesterday, now my nails are black and it won't come off. Put nail varnish on to hide it, but it took ages to dry and now it's all smudged. Must have been a cheap and nasty one, pretty colour though.

    Going to hypermarket, and the GC to buy a pot the for the impulse buy of Lady Emma Hamilton when I was at David Austin's. No room for her.

    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    KEF don't remember My Mother the Car (did you make it up)image  Mr Ed was a favourite though.

    Funny how you can always squeeze in just one more rose you can't do without isn't it Lizzieimage  Ages since I wore nail varnish.  It only ever lasts a day if I'm lucky.

    You need more ice cream and rum on that throat OL. The ice cream will soothe the pain and line the stomach, the rum get rid of any nasties if its an infection.

    Spent all evening yesterday cleaning a bouncy castle that belongs to the museum on the drive. Sponge brillo pads and Swargea gel to the rescue! I can assure you you really don't want to know how disgustingly dirty it was. Still more to do but we'll hopefully get that done tonight.

    His family are coming over on Sunday. I really ought get the house cleaned and garden tidied up a bit more - I know grandma will be on the hunt for dust and weeds (of which we have plenty!)

    Finding out on Friday about redundancies. I'm hoping to have heard about a few more jobs going by then!
