Mind you, I'm showered and dressed, breakfast and coffee eaten and second coffee on the go, and a load of washing is in the machine - the skie looks blue with white fluffies and I might just go out shopping later this morning ..... or I might not ..... this retirement thingy is just making me indecisive
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Making a new raised bed at present: The first one I made about 15 years ago finally expired because I didn't use tanalised timber boards. I just screwed untreated 6"x2"x4' boards together with some 'L' brackets.
I'm making the new one using some steel channels welded together at 90° to each other to create 4 posts which I will concrete into the ground, then I can cut and slot in new boards. I'll post a pic later when it's all done.
Idle good for first few days of retirement Dove,then slowly shift in to second occasionally third...........in retirement absolutely no need ever for top gear
It's probably because you're using a iPad or something swish and clever like that - I think people in your elevated position will be getting the new exclusive Christmas Smilies that come out a bit closer to Christmas and are scented with pine needles and mulled wine
