Still wet and (dark) grey here in Leics and has been pretty much all week (apart from when at work of course!) Itching to get something done in the garden but, with clay soil, likely to cause more harm than good. Looks like more browsing for seeds and plants for next year, so not entirely a washout!
A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
Done some bulb planting few alliums and wallflower planted in one area and chionodoxa and some moving of plant pots and got a pot planted some hyacinth that's a few more bulbs planted still some to go
very cold here for a few days so other than taking the heaps temp. now and then its been mostly movies. JOHN WICK-interesting but keanu reeves is such an opaque actor. NIGHTCRAWLER-wow wow wow and jake gives an alltime great performance. and then FURY which is so good in so many ways. and saw the previews for gods and kings which is sort of a remake of the ten commandments and looks absolutely ridiculous. where is cecil b. demille when we need him? was down to -6C last night and only 5C today so winter. . . . . .sigh. have been stirring up controversy on another garden site so have come here to be peaceful. hope all your lives are as pleasant as mine is right now.
Understand both your hassles with shopping - hate it (with OH anyway). We had to buy a lot of stuff to bring here, (v.expensive here) and we spent months beforehand arguing, sorry discussing options. Luckily Ikea is a 3 hour drive away now so we won't be going very often. Good luck finding a sofa though soon Chicky.
Sorry to hear about your dog Matty, so sad.
David, won't be trying those roses, and curious about who and how youv'e been upsetting people!
Wet again this morning but forecast looking up.

Sofa shopping was a disaster - have now established all the things Mr Chicky doesn't like - but none of the things he does
.
Oh dear Chicky, sorry you didn't agree on sofs shopping, did you see any you liked
lovely afternoon at Golf Club, lovely lunch and great company. And no cooking lol.
Bit quiet on here tonight.
Hope you've all had a good day.

Morning Chicky and Becky,
Understand both your hassles with shopping - hate it (with OH anyway). We had to buy a lot of stuff to bring here, (v.expensive here) and we spent months beforehand arguing, sorry discussing options. Luckily Ikea is a 3 hour drive away now so we won't be going very often. Good luck finding a sofa though soon Chicky.
