Very mild outside. It was 12 degrees overnight. That's hot for this time of year. Must get lots of jobs done this morning if the rain holds off.
Saw a bit of Children-in-Need last night, but kept channel hoping. The show has become too predictable and fails to capture my interest. Looking forward to SCD at Wem-ber-lee tonight. That will be brilliant.
An interesting snippet from Horticulture Week this morning: "BBC emailed me (Matthew Appleby, a journalist at HW) to say Monty Don was “on the verge of a new contract”, rather than having signed one. Monty’s been tweeting about BBC management, gunning for BBC management changes."
Sounds interesting/dangerous. Hope another catastrophic Beeb scandal is not in the brewing.
The forecast for tonight is frost-tomorrow sun and cold but unsettled for the rest of the week-the frost has still not hit the front garden-still have begonias fuchsias and the odd dahlia in flower
XF is getting closer to the final and as the contestants get whittled down the programme gets shorter-then Helen doing the Bushtucker Trial on I'm a Celeb-all about rats and suchlike-she wont get far-there are still contestants who don't appear- in the editing -to have done much except sit around-Linda and Ashley prime examples
Might wander outside in a minute-I hope Kate appears today with tales from the classroom.

I suppose it wouldn’t be the first time some smalltime ‘celeb’ had ideas above their station!
I don't knit very often now but I'm knitting a dog coat as a joke Christmas present for my daughter's dog. I got the pattern off the Battersea Dog's home site, but I don't think it will be big enough. I'll have to knit some extra panels to go in. This is my dog Khan. He wouldn't be seen dead in a coat or dreesing up. He has a serious sense of humour failure but as you can see he still has his security blanket.

Oh Flo - so cute

Night Geoff, night everyone else
Night Geoff. And any others off to bed.
He is, isn't he? Not mine, Caz. Though I suppose he'll look like that if I shave him ;- )
Oh just popped in to say goodnight and saw a bucket of maltesers with my name on! Don't mind if I do!
Night all.
PS Inka, I showed son no. 1 your whale picture (and the dogs) - he was most impressed.

Morning Gary. Very mild here too. So many jobs to do outside that I don't know where to start.
No doubt everyone else has been busy busy, done all errands, hoovered and dusted, now walking dogs/chickens/children/OHs etc and will report in later.
I'm looking forward to SCD too though may have to start another knitting project as have finished the shrug!
We have sun
-of a sort

Good morning early forkers,
Have I missed out on the maltesers?
I don't knit very often now but I'm knitting a dog coat as a joke Christmas present for my daughter's dog. I got the pattern off the Battersea Dog's home site, but I don't think it will be big enough. I'll have to knit some extra panels to go in. This is my dog Khan.

Pam -I saved you some maltesers

-knock yourself out-is Khan a softy as well?
