  • Wonky - speaking as someone who sustained injuries in the course of her work - there should be more to your manual handling training than that!  It's to keep you safe, given the difficulties of the people you work with (and I used to work with)!!!  Here endeth the first lesson .......... image

    Make sure you put your feet up tonight and enjoy the wedding tomorrow image

  • Good morning all!  image

    Lovely photo, Pat.  Excuse my ignorance - what's a yabbie?

    I spent a great morning yesterday, helping to clear brambles and saplings in the park to make a little path.  There's so much to do and such a big area to maintain - but every little helps, I suppose...  image

    The weatherman has promised us image later on this morning, though it's currently image - low cloud and misty drizzle (Pennine speciality).  We live in hope... at least I can get the boring stuff done early on, and then be free to spend most of the day in the garden, since OH is out for the day.

    Enjoy your Friday folks!

    Good morningimage

    Lovely and sunny again this morningimage.  That's a lovely photo Pat.  You always bring me up short when you mention things like getting snake scorers outimage.  Not a problem we have to deal with, thank goodness.

    Chicky perhaps the sunglasses disappear every night and appear again in the morning.  You were just too early for themimage

    Yesterday sounded a fun day at work Wonky.  I expect you will enjoy the wedding and you won't have to cookimage

    Have a good day everyone.

  • Not had time to read back much, hope all are well!

     

    Been doing too much physical work in the clinic, lifting a carpet ready for new flooring. Easy you would think? Not if it has been glued down for thirty years! If I ever meet Mr Flotex, I'll shove his carpet up his...

     

    Garage conversion continues, thankfully unexpected pipe turned out to be a weird improvised conduit for the electricity and not our soil pipe!

    Lirio, if you Google yabbie, it'll give a better description than I could. But, briefly it's a freshwater crayfish. They just seem to arrive in dams - apparently people who tried to breed them for a living, had to find ways to fence them in because they go "walkabout". image

    Steve I had been thinking of Flotex tiles in the kitchen/breakfast room but I've a feeling you wouldn't recommend itimage

    Shadow and Leo sound a. It like our previous dog who used to 'bury' her bones under the pillows on son's bed and was also known to raid the kitchen bin while we were out.
