Someone here commented re council grants too! Trouble is neither of us are yet of pensionable age nor on benefits- dont think mine counts, but there again, my medical circumstances......hmm
Just had very yummy fresh sweetcorn cobs, mushroom omlette to follow- OH brought a 2cnd box of mushrooms back this time. Then, when I can get back into the kitchen , pears baked in the Remoska with wonderful vanilla icecream. Nice!
Ooh Pam, dont think have ever tried doing D's STP. That's an idea for sometime soon. J.
Trying to maintain a border wider than you can comfortably reach is a pain. A few nice stepping stones, one every couple of yards along the border, are an option.
Gary see this is the problem, I have let shrubs take over in the back of the border but I now want to put some climbers in to give me more privacy. Every spring and autumn I pinch a bit more lawn but now I am getting to the stage where I need to redesign it. Stepping stones may be the short term solution, thanks.
Just take care that if the 'stepping' stones are wood eg from felled tree trunks, they become very slippy when wet so need chicken wire fixixng to them. They also do eventually rot down so will need to be replaced.You can get very similar looking concrete 'fake wooden' ones from B&Q/builders places.
Nobody had any room for a pud, so pears will get done another time. Good, as just noticed that recipe said 'ripe' & they were still hard!
OH has now fixed this pc to 'talk' to printer in his workshop/study. In my 'book' still just as easy to trot along to study with laptop & 'do' things in there- that way i can ensure there's paper in the printer! J.
Jo, you're quite right. My laptop 'talks' to the printer but 3 out of every 4 times I have to go into the room with the main computer and see to the printer for some reason or another!
Yep, am quite happy trotting into workshop to use printer, suits me, but OH into anything 'new' etc, so...... this is only a notebook, so not exactly heavy.
Have just been looking at local firms website- hmm, no mention of actually doing fitting of boilers, just servicing. Am sure though that they encorporated another longstanding local firm that DID supply & fit CH. Oh well, shall find out tomorrow no doubt.
Still to go & look at our 50p collection & it's the day for watering the house/porch plants- wow! J.

Jo thanks for the tip.
Afternoon all -have lunched and feel things are getting back to normal
I would go for concrete stepping stones-use a container to disguise them when not needed
