Glad everybody is having a nice days out & sorry to hear the weather is still pants in Scotland (doesn't stop it being the most beautiful country in the world though!). Nice story about your robin, Dove - he is getting very tame isn't he?
I was out at 7am painting the shed before it got too hot. Just finished 1st coat & debating whether or not I'll do a 2nd one later this afternoon or leave it a couple of days. Kn**kered after a cr*p night's sleep - so probably the latter.
Site seems to be working OK using Safari & adblock plus from an iMac - will try later from iPad.
Off to fix leaky outdoor tap now - no rest etc
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down
Had a quick read back, you all sound fairly content with the world, as do the robins and blackbirds around.
Well done WW, sounds like you deserve a bit of good luck.
Housework all done - again, washing sorted and just going to grab a few hours in the garden before I start preparing dinner for the guests tonight. Belgiums have all gone, got French people now and on Monday have people coming from New Caledonia. Am going to rant about something now but will put it on the other thread, it's long winded and I need to get it off my chest.
Anyway, wish you all a good week-end, Panda I hope not too basic for you, will post some pics too on another thread too.

I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

If choc and nut bars appeared on the doorstep here Verdun, we'd have to pour them into a glass!

It's a bit late, but if anyone fancies a cuppa and a slice of cardamom cake, help yourself
By the way, it's supposed to dip in the middle - it says so in the recipe
