    Evening all, been sunny and very humid here, real thunderstorm weather.

    Spent the day comparing the garden unfavourably with Gt. Dixter, changes are planned.

    Have a good evening everyone, am off to cook some tea.

    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    Evening all. Dry, sunnyish day here. Little run out to check whether major roadworks & road closures would affect the cycle ride OH is leading next week (they won't) and had another pub lunch out. Two in two days - that's a bit naughty image 

    Found a fairly good GC in Long Melford. Bought a plant sprayer and watering lance but no sticky plants - they had some reduced but nothing of interest.

    Came home and made raspberry and lemon drizzle tray bake to scoff while watching Bake Off. OH will be giving a critique in Bake Off style. 

    Best wishes to all those with aches and pains - both physical and emotional.

    SGL image  Ma was surprised I knew where to find her - she's not often there - apparently! image When I left I said "I'll see you again soon" - she said she didn't know where she'd be 'cos she travels around a lot - you don't think she's discovered Romany roots do you??? image Anyway, we left it that I'd check there first, and if she wasn't at The Lovely Home they'd know where she was likely to be. They've assured her that they'll keep a bedroom free for her and they'll always have a meal for her image Apart from the confusion she was perfectly happy - she knew she'd been out the day before and had a nice time, but couldn't remember where it was she'd been (a walk/push with some of the other residents and staff down to the sea front for a cup of coffee and an ice cream).

    The only problem is that she appears to have lost her bottom dentures - she's probably flushed them down the loo like she did the last ones - at least this time we've got the moulds so it won't cost her an arm and a leg to have some more made like it did the last time.  image

    Oh bless her, at least she sounds happy, its upsetting for you Dove but at least 'her world' is a happy one. Would be more upsetting for you if she was unhappy. Best wishes and hugs.

     

    Oh yum Topbird raspberry drizzle cake sounds fab.
