Downpour now stopped - had a good half inch of much-needed rain this morning. Off now to help aged mum move into semi-managed accomodation from her council flat. She already has three friends at the new place after suffering a string of 'bad' neighbours at her council flat, so will be a lot happer and less stressed I hope!
A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
Home at last. The weather seems to consist of fast moving showers, unless it was me passing through them fast. OH has looked after the plants well with only a quarter looking poorly. He's done well with the dog and son though.
I like the sound of that brandy Wonky. My Dad sent OH a bottle of Courvoisier to thank him for letting me go there whenever needed. As if he would complain.
Bob I hope the move goes well and that your Mum is happy in her new home. It will save you a lot of worry.
Lizzie - good luck tomorrow and have a fantastic time in NY. I'm in awe. Sorry - that was me trying to sing.
Hope tomorrow goes well Lizzie and for your OH appearing in N.Y.
Glad you are home Lesley

Evening all, back from sunny cornwall, drive home was a Nightmare! left at 10.15 this morning and got home at 5.45.
As we left the heavens opened so well done Verdun for keeping the rain at bay until we started home.
Haven't read back but hope everyone is OK.
