Who said romance was dead.....the rugby is on this afternoon. What a lucky girl I am.....first cricket and then rugby, there must footie on at some piont as well today
GG its that eezee greenhouse from T&M, i got it with my tesco vouchers, its not huge, but should be perfect for seed sowing, then raising some tender stuff, one of the forum members sent me some melon seeds, i havent grown them for years, so really looking forward to it
Beautiful tulips, always amazes me the range of colours they come in!
You lucky lady SGL! i like the rugby, but couldnt cope with the cricket! Got the tendon/nerve thingy between my collar bone and clavical pinched, had it for yonks, just decided to play up today, havent got much control over my right hand, it depends what position my arm is in, not really hurting tho, just flippin inconvenient!
Aww Bekkie, that's a shame. Perhaps OH will (sorry I'll leave it there - no sentence sounds right)
Lucky ladies getting breakfast in bed. I got a card when I came back from the dog walk. Went to SM and there were huge queues at the flower section. I mentioned that to OH and he said I was meant to be growing my own. Now his turn to take dog out before tv football. I'll sow sweet peas so will be happy in my own little world
Dove you made me laugh with the scraggy bits. Now I feel .
is my one weakness. Who used to say that - was it someone on Cranford or Larkrise to Candleford, if I remember right they used to lots of 'one weaknesses'
post mistress in Larkrise to Candleford or as my son says(because we live in Cornwall) Launceston to Camelford.
Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.
Hi Folks, Ive just finished digging out new beds so lots of room now for lots of new plants. I am now officially knac****d. I was dreaming about a lazy afternoon catching up on some TV progs when Firstborn called and announced that they were all coming over at about 3.30. I have a feeling it will involved tea and staying over until tomorrow. Mustn't complain, no Nanna Duty next week (half-term) so I need to get my cuddles in while I can.
I got a nice box of choccies for Valentines day (last night), no card as apparently they are 'A waste of money'.
To get my strength up for visitors I have eaten a second caramel custard doughnut and finished the rest of the choccies. Purely for energy you understand.
I loved Larkrise as well RB. It was Julia Swa(something) wasn't it who played the postmistress.
Hope that greenhouse goes together OK Bekkie, are you sure it's not alll the gin you drink that causes that shaking only joking, hope you feel better soon.
Hope Shadow is feeling better, at least those with pooches will be getting lots of cuddles on valentines day.
Need to lie down now and rest the back before the hoards descend.
Lesley, thank you - afternoon tea was lovely, scones with jam & cream and all... Couldn't move afterwards, went to sleep on the sofa in the evening
Bekkie, how right you are! I've often explained to my OH that it's ok for me to spend money on the garden, because I never buy any expensive clothes, & don't drink or smoke...
Yvie, I'm trying hard not to be jealous... I haven't been on grandma duty now for nearly a month, since the family moved to Ireland, and I'm missing my cuddles! We have to wait to be invited, as they need "settling in" time. Hopefully they'll be missing us soon!
Unremitting drizzle today. Visited Mum, who seems better (though still not coherent), did shopping, mended gardening gloves, sharpened loppers, shears, secateurs and knives. OH now watching rugby. Think it's time for knitting...
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
They are indeed Audrey Tulips Chicky, well remembered OH said he had to go to loads of shops to match the colour
Liri, glad your mum seems better I think you have earned some knitting time. Yvie, I think you've earned a rest too And tuck into those choccies, if there are any left
We have the rugby on too - burly men with beards, and so many of them Are they playing a game too??
