    Mornin all...  Quick skim of last night's/this morning's posts, and I see that several of us would be up for a northern day out image - mid-sept sounds fine to me, can manage weekends or midweek usually.  Could get to Harlow Carr (2 hrs away) and/or Dove Cottage (the local U3A gardening group went there & said it was well worth while.  They meet on a day I can hardly ever manage... image)  

    Thinking about my little girl today (well, she's 35, but you know what I mean... ) cos she's got her appointment with the paediatrician, hopefully to sort out 5-month old granddaughter's digestive problems.  Fingers crossed...  image

    Need to move some flagstones now.  image

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    Enjoy the shopping KEF - rather you than me image

    Hugs/cheers or whatever's appropriate for everyone else image

    Lovely Builder arrived just as the scones were cooling - he had two mugs of tea and two scones and re-sealed the bath - we'll test it tonight when it's 'gone off properly' and phone him with the result.  Charge for an emergency visit on a BH?  £15 image

    Morning all, what's left of it.

    I feel much better now, lost 4lbs. Expect most will be put back soon though.

    I liked clothes shopping when I was slimmer. I like M & S Per Una jeans, but I wish they did more blue shades, most are grey.

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

    Agree with you Busy Liz, Per Una are usually a good fit if you can get a blue pr, image

    Hi Folks put me down for Harlow Carr, I have someone I might be able to stay with, Ill have to check it out when I get back from holiday. If not I might be able to get B&B local.

    Liri I hope the appointment goes well for your daughter.

    I quite like shopping for new clothes but not when I need something.  I know that sounds mad but if I'm going for something specific I never seem to find it but if I'm just browsing I quite often find something I like.  Ive learned not to buy anything unless I absolutely love it because quite often if it's just OK it stays in the wardrobe and I can't afford to do that anymore since finishing work.

    Be careful moving those flagstones, I suspect you will feel it tomorrow, so hope you feel better in advance.

    It stopped raining here but it's still very grey.  I still have a couple of plants to put in before holiday so it looks like I'm going to get a bit muddy.
