Morning everyone. I've been busy today so I missed the early posts. Transplanted more tomatoes, cut back the oregano then spent ages getting it cleaned and into the drying machine. Converted the stewed strawberries into jam in desperation. Picked more strawberries and thinking about what to do with them. Jam will probably be the answer because at least they don't need freezing.
I picked an armful of chard and Hubby made a cheese and chard tart. Snuck a bit for lunch, but will have more tonight for dinner.
Back from our brief sojourn in Luxembourg - pics soon. Very Novembery here.
Jam is the way forward, Pat. I have 35 jars in my cupboard, so no C*******s shopping needed. How do you get your strawberry to set? I refuse to spend what they want for sugar with added pectin.
Read back and all very amusing (except for Gertie's car), poor Hosta.
Lovely day here, bright & sunny - will get those bulbs in today - honest.
Have to take Charlie to an athletic competition this afternoon, at the same event last year I ended up in charge of the shot put scoring - will probably get roped into something else again too - I hope whatever it is not quite so dangerous.
Have a good day all whatever you are doing - or not doing.

Sounds lovely Dove, nice for a mother and daughter to do stuff together.
Always feel that an autumn Saturday should include Dr Who.
Love to WW.

Morning Pdoc, I'm not planting bulbs today either, it does look like a snuggle down with a movie day! Enjoy!
Need second coffee now!
Breakfast anyone?
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Good morning all, afternoon Pat
What a lovely, but busy, day you have planned Dove

Pat it sounds as though you are getting back to normal after your visitors
. I wouldn't mind a glut of strawberries at the moment

Steve, re no Christmas shopping - I'm sure your OH will be delighted with her jar of jam

Quiz night tonight so I'll have to hope my memory is better then than it is now
