Not sure Busy, but I type a line andits ok, then I type another, then both lines jumble about together not making any sense! Very weird. ? Seems to be ok at the moment.
Morning all. Everyone sleep well? Work am then appt pm. Birthday night out tonight (not mine) with friends from way back. Might get in garden this weekend so will have more to say then. Have a good day.
Hope everyone is okay. Lovely dry cold morning so will get out in the garden again today to move some plants into the greenhouse for the winter. I found a few of the dreaded vine weevil in the pots of begonias yesterday so I've steeped them overnight in a solution of Provado. It worked last year and I got most of the m over the winter.
I went outside about an hour ago to see if I could spot the comet Ison. Didn't see the comet but just then the space station was going overhead. It's incredible to think there's people up there.
Good morning all I love looking for satellites and the Space Station - I would have looked for the comet too, but heavy cloud and rain here so no chance. The street lights are turned off here between 1- 5am and it's brilliant - you can see the stars so much better
I watched the Mark Gattis play re the beginnings of Dr Who last night - loved it - and I stayed awake - I've not been able to do that for years - I'm getting my life back!
As for the diet - I've done far worse than that - I have a thyroid problem which wasn't diagnosed for years and that, coupled with an injury, resulted in a lot of weight gain. Eventually, a few years ago with the support of my lovely new GP, I went on a Very Low Calorie diet (under 500 cal per day every day) and lost 7 stones. Once I got started it was really quite easy to do, as I'm a bit of an all or nothing sort of person. It's much harder cooking and keeping the calories down rather than just opening a sachet and stirring it into a mug of water.
I've gained a couple of stones over the years since then, but I'm beginning to shift them now - one will be enough
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Chicky - I used to wear contact lenses and wasn't troubled by the onion vapour - it is only since I ditched them that the eyes got watery. My OH thinks I look hilarious in the goggles but I don't care as they work.
Good morning all, overlaid this morning, must have needed the sleep.
Lily, thanks, I'm not poorly, just not tip top, don't know if it's the cold weather or me being a bit mardy. I meant the sofa in the log cabin, wanted to get a seat early
Dove wow, that was some weight loss, a stone will drop off, says me! Who carried around an extra stone for years, stone and half at one point. Sitting on by bottom at work didn't help, as well as collegues who were "bun faces". Also like your OH mine can eat like a horse and stay the same weight, 30" waist at 61 , smart alec. Dad used to say to him "I'd rather keep you for a week than a fortnight".
Panda, glad you've posted, was wondering how you were. You'll get well, just give it time. Bulbs, just shove them in a pot for this year, far easier than planting out if you feel stressed about getting them done.
Dr. KEF off now...hope all have a good day. See you later.
My GH seems full to bursting too - not sure how i ever managed without it. One of this winter's projects is to move it - looks like i might need to build an extra day into the project plan just to take all the pots out and put them back in again!
