    Maybe your pipes are frozen FG - you are in Scotland and everyone knows the weather's worse up there image

    Fortunately it's not as cold today Dove.  image

    All fixed now - impressive service! The men were already on the way when I phoned, were across the road for ten minutes and all's well.

    Daughter is complaining about the brown water coming through - ' Mum -  the point of a shower is that you're supposed to get cleaner!' she said. Kids eh? image

    Watch out for a blocked showerhead nextimage  At  least you weren't without water for long.  I'm beginning to like the idea of the sofa, a cuppa and a film nowimage  Just come in from emptying the dalek and the wind is getting up now. More leaves to clear image 

    Hope you get your lift Panda. Make sure you keep bumping into himimage

    Good Day

    Grim weather here today.

    Just considering lighting burner as brrrrr - but that could be down to the all pervading dampness!

    have done some garden thinking and ordered plants off Crocus (20% off) usually find it covers the postage - some perennials for the white bit to fill in some gaps.

    Bulb order has come as well - mostly tulips, now where do I plant them?

    Sorry to hear some aren't too good, weather doesn't help., but if you are where there is sun well............. get well soon

    Hello all

    Poorly Fairy not good, Mrs Garden cheeky

    My bulb order came today so exciting thinking of all the colour I will be adding to pots and the garden, I got manly tulips too Matty2  and a surprise bulb pack which I ordered with lots of goodies - I was thinking where to put the extra ones to the ones I know where going that I ordered rough notes on a bit of paper made   

    I will join you all on the sofa wet grey here and I am feeling tired

    Potted version image Been to GC.

    Got tree lights. Seems they don't make lights that old farts like image

    Got garlic both hard neck varieties:

    Carcassonne Wight strong & vigorous

    Lautrec Wight creamy & smooth

    Peas Hurst Green Shaft

    Climbing French beans Blue Lake.

    I bought something ( in EEC approved packets...panic not folks ) that is described as Marrow / Squash / Courgette called Gemma from Crete, picture looks like a little fat round courgette. Plus some bush beans that look like borlotti beans also called Gemma imageimage My Greek isn't great but I think I've sussed Gemma is the trade name. Will have fun next summer. image

    Still damp / rain & miserable here.

    Pdoc I thought McQueen rode the motorbike & Newman the pushbike image
