Evening all, too much to catch up on but saw the fireworks and Asda vouchers. I once got hit on the head by a rocket at a fireworks display, so happier with yours Geoff. At least I'm safe from falling debris.
I shall have to do the insomnia on your behalf Becks!
Figrat, that bread sounds yummy, I LOVE fresh bread. I too cannot resist, especially if there is cherry jam. We had a lovely loaf the othe day (not home made though) but OH had picked up unsalted butter by mistake and it was just lacking!
Saw Choir last night. Possibly losing its magic. But that episode was interesting to me because Severn Trent HQ is not far from here. I pay my water rates to them. My bill alone pays the wages of half the people in that show. Interesting to see that they thought they were 'under pressure'. Reassuring to know they are not slacking, at my expense.
Been outside with the bird-feed. It's damp and dreary at the moment, although a bright sunny morning is forecast. Might be able to do a few jobs.
Hello to all the early-risers-have been to the dentist and back again and only just 9.30
I like the fact that water workers feel under pressure
Have had a an e-mail telling me energy contract ends at the end of November on the day that it is announced that prices are to rise again -so comparison sites here I come
Morning everyone, not a bad day here but still too wet to rake up the myriads of leaves that have appeared in my garden seemingly overnight. I am thinking of investing in a leaf vac .
Energy prices are set to rise by 8% this year, so I've been told - not good.
I have been pottering round in the conservatory and thought I'ld take a few pics .
Houseplants of the day -These are my African violets which are nice and cheery The other pic is my supermarket monstera. Not bad for a fiver, eh ?
Well off to shops now but not before the offer of a full english with my friend in the cafe Have a good day, forkers.
We had our renewal for staywarm gas and electric yesterday.and was pleasantly surprised that the price has stayed the same as last year,. That's a relief, can now put heating on a bit more
I have been on the internet looking for holiday gites in the Dordogne/Lot area of France for next May. Oh has got a bee in his bonnet and wants to plan for next year likes to have something to look forward to he says. Daughter and her partner are coming with us so I shall be spending endless hours on computer trying to find something that suits us all. Something to do when I can't get outside, I suppose.
The sun has just made an appearance so might put some washing out and go and look round a very soggy garden, pained down all night here.

I have done fireworks and champagne earlier-will not sleep now-
Well that's me fed with the scraps left at the bottom of the freezer.
Going to treat myself to an early night. Catch you all tomorrow. xx

They said it was going to be warm and sunny today, what happened
Becks we will need regular updates on the shopping.
Geoff your time management is impressive.
Gary I agree, I think in the previous series the people needed Gareths help, this comes across as just another reality show.
