    Son turned up, Phew! image

    Son did leave home, much better as you said Jo, when you don't know what's going on. Still he had a good time, and for once the course was interesting

    As for Cannock Chase it seems the were wolf arrived after we left!! (becks)

    Have to completely emptycaravan today, usually leave plates etc in but have a damp problem and we are taking it to be looked at so needs to have cupboards empty so they can get in all the nooks and crannies. Goodness knows where we are going to put the stuffimage

  • Morning all - won't venture out without my hard hat on if Geoff's on the golf course!

    Bjay I think we worry about them whatever age they are. Son no. 3 told me last night that he and his brothers know I would miss them if they moved out so they're staying put!

    Figrat, hugs, sounds like its been a very tough time. Good luck with the plants.

    PPam, keep searching for that secret identity, we'll work it out sooner or later.

    Wonder how Kate's getting on. Hope those schoolkids are behaving.

    Morning all! Hope everyone is well image

    Must have been away ages, have been catching up on the posts.

    Busy time at home and work and have just not had time online image



    I am glad I don't have your early starts to the day Dean. I think they would finish me off. I an more an owl than a lark.



    Figrat, sorry to hear your sad news.



    Jean and Caz...before I got married I was part of the Bing-A-Ling elf family.

    I am now Pinky Smickleifigus!



    Hello Bev. I try to keep up on here but "life" tends to get in the way.

    Kate...my thoughts are with you in the classroom.

    I am also a teacher (although part time since my children), there are a lot of us about on here image

    Keeps me busy, ha ha!



    Catching up on paperwork today....must get on, I have been distracted by my quick catch up on here.

    Morning Lovelies!

    Not much planned for today. I have got to help a friend set up a website for her art gallery. Trouble is, she hasn't a clue about computers and stuff, and she's in America, so this could be fun! image

    Bjay, glad your son is home safe. image

    I'm getting worried about Geoff and his 'ball bashing' Could all end in tears. image

    Jean, great news about your refunded pot!

    Nola, next time, you must hand in an absence note!! image

    Dean, when I saw this, I thought of you!! image

  • Hi, Becks, you could be in for an interesting day. Does Batman get given plants to take home?

    Jean, you may have got off lightly with just a broken pot. We knew someone who was a rep for a cavity wall company. One day they were short of a workman so he was volunteered. He pulled an extension cable through a goldfish pond and electrocuted the goldfish at the same time knocking the head of a statue by the pond. They hid the goldfish under weed in the pond and balanced the head by on the statue. Nothing further was heard from the owners of the house but they must have wondered what had happened to their fish.

    Geoff is late. Do you suppose he's got a hole in one and had to buy a round of drinks?

  • Morning All.

    Late checking in this morning, been a bit busy, trying to get the last of the winter pansies and tulips in pots, job doneimage

    Very mild here this morning, didn't even have to wear a fleece. I have just seen a skein of over 100 geese flying over in V formation, quite a sight, making a terrific noise, I hope they are going to the new wetland area about 3 miles from us, might go and have a look this afternoon..

    Becks, you sound as if you are going to have quite a job with the website, doing that sort of thing at a distance can't be easy, well it wouldn't be easy for me anyway, can just about manage to do everyday things computer wise.

    Hope everyone get their problems sorted, both personal and domestic, there's always something to keep everyone busyimage

    Now going to see if bread machine has finished, mixed seeded loaf todayimage got to make some effort to be healthy.

    Catch you later.

    Chris

    Missed morning register but can be ticked off first for this afternoon.

    So many people have things going on that I can't say all the things I thought as I was reading - as Chris said, hope all problems both domestic and otherwise are getting sorted. Figrat, virtual hug if I may.

    P Pam, those poor goldfish! My cleaning lady (when I worked full time and could afford one) had a couple of breakage incidents during her time with me. One of them was the lid of a china pot into two which she pressed together and returned to its pot.

    Seedy bread is one of my favourites - but I daren't get a breadmaker otherwise I'd undo all the good I have done at WW this last 18 months.

    Lovely and sunny here, surprisingly warm. Carpets of leaves everywhere.
