    My specialities lie in the separating of cats from their knackers, I am no metalworker! I can just about use a saw and a screwdriver...

    Are those two statements conected, Steve, or do you have more advanced surgical instruments these days?

    Back from glorious bike ride - i do love where we liveimage  Went for coffee and cake in Alton, then wiggled back through Binstead, Selbourne and Kingsley.  Took a detour home past the Hostaman's garden, which is looking gorgeous, with lots of other things popping up in between his 3000 hostas. And now, time for a quick snoozeimageimage

    Evening all - I'm home from the hill image

    I had, what we call in the fairy household,  a 'Wallace and Gromit '  (Grand Day Out)  image

    Weather improved as the day went on so lots of pix were taken.

    I leave you for a few hours though, and you all  get up to mischief. image

    Jo's leg was stiff but it's ok as she's got new pants - did I get that right? Steve has got hanging nuts and chicky says there's lots of things popping up in between hostas in Hosta's  garden.....have I wandered in on the set of a Carry On film?  imageimage

    Today's lunchtime/early afternoon view...the car's down there somewhere

    Got some nice pix of the moon last night, courtesy of older fairy so I'll put them  on the camera thread later

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
  • Looks glorious Fairy and yes has been lots of mischief on here today, I blame Steve and Hosta, both as bad as each other. image
