Had a fabulous time at the theatre although the leg room left an awful lot to be desired Can still feel the dent in my leg from the seat in front
Hoping the weather is lovely tomorrow as my sister is coming to see how the garden is coming along (she last saw it early days) and then a friend coming for lunch
Runny, am back with loads of time for MrP, esp as he's on tomorrow!!!!
Evening all. I've been out all day, an annual meeting with lunch then went to see son as his baby son has started crawling. More like a caterpillar really! Cute.
Out tomorrow too, going to OH's Choir's lunch party.
My agastache, Blue Boa and Black Adder were bought in pots last autumn. They looked fine. I re-potted them and put them in a cold frame for winter. Black Adder is growing, but nothing is happening in Blue Boa's pot.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Panda , only the second time I've used it. I reckon something very dry got caught up under the engine, heated up then caught fire.
I switched the engine off but couldn't reach it to poke it out.
Bit of a panic moment , then stuffed some long green grass into the space to smother it. Not before burning a hole through my gloves and burning 2 knuckles.
Goodness Hosta, glad you've escaped relatively unscathed. Burnt knuckles are painful though it's better than being blown up. Surely that shouldn't happen.
Glad you enjoyed Cats Panda. I loved it when we went many years ago
Back to normal then Yvie. I bet you've missed them though and you'll love all the photos
Liri the model railway scenery sounds great. I always wanted the boys to get interested so I could have a go at making little houses and trees but never really had the space to devote to it.
Lily I thought you had George 4 days and me 3 Wondered where he'd got to
Lesley ,to be fair, the grass hasn't been mown in 2 years, we've had sheep in the last couple of years, I think it was the dead stem of a thistle, which the sheep ignored. so very dry . Hey ho, be more vigilant next time.
I did have visions of watching £3.5K mower going up in flames.
Lesley, we haven't really got room for OH's railway. It's in the spare bedroom... or rather, the spare bed is in the railway room since the railway has spread more than a little! Making little models will probably have to wait until next winter, unless we have a particularly wet summer - garden takes precedence imo
Yvie, snap! Son and DIL spent an evening showing us their Californian photos - lots of San Francisco, which looks amazing, and even more of Yosemite, where they stayed in a cabin. Too chicken for a tent! (Well, to be fair, they went with friends who had a year-old baby, so they decided they needed a little more comfort.) I liked the giant redwood trees.
OH has hurt his back and is hobbling round like a 90-year-old. Must make him some drinking chocolate...
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

bit of an incident this afternoon with the new mower. Let's just say , naked flames were involved.
OMG Hosta - has it gone kaput?
Hope you are safe and well

No damage to mower thankfully.

Oooo hosta - sounds scary
. Glad all is extinguished
Lots of giggles and singing coming from our chicklets in the kitchen this evening ... But this is what they came up with
One of their friends has a birthday tomorrow
Which means she gets to vote in the upcoming bloodbath
