Evening all, Hope everyone is OK, haven't looked back as I'm assuming you have all been chatterboxes while I have been away.
Have finally got the back garden into some semblance of order after the hols. Have lost a few plants and a couple of Astilbes are still in the balance (fingers crossed). That will teach me to go away for 3 whole weeks.
Had some bad news yesterday. Hubby had a problem with the sight in his eye while we were on holiday and after spending all day in casualty yesterday it appears his retina has become detatched - no idea how. Apparently it had been partially detatched for some time and finally broke away totally. He has to have an op in a week or so (waiting for a letter from the hospital) although they are not sure if it will do any good, so it's a bit of a worrying time.
Sorry to hear your news Yvie - hope the op is a success & everything works out ok.
Sounds like everybody else has been busy (especially the painters).
We have been on a bike ride today. Did 43 miles which I know is not far for serious cyclists but it was a bit far for me. My btm is a tender at the moment
Went through some very pretty villages & stopped for lunch in Laxfield where Dove met Busy Lizzie a few weeks ago. Sank a pint of Adnams Broadside in (for me) record time and demolished a doorstep beef & horseradish sarnie with sauté potatoes. Was not ladylike at all but I was ravenous! Popped in to the church afterwards on BL & Dove's recommendation - definitely worth a visit.
Good day all round but need to be careful how I sit tonight
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down

Sending best wishes and hugs Yvie, hope all goes well for Mr Yvie.
43 MILES!!!! Topbird! I'd be kn*****d!! Wow, well done you. Sounds like a lovely day too
considering i didn't get much sleep last night i'm still wide awake.....and didn't have any zzzzzzs during the day either!
No joe, I really wouldn't
Worrying time for you and OH Yvie. Really hope that all goes well. Did you have a good holiday? It must seem ages ago already, as does mine.
Well done the painters and decorators. Are you both available for hire?
Sounds like a great day Topbird. Think you should lie down now if it's too sore to sit. Hope everything still moves in the morning

Sleep well tonight lily
