Hello everyone! Popping in at a more sensible time today
Caz-very handy, those IKEA bags. I have one in the boot for impromptu garden centre visits!
Love the jar idea.
I use propagators in the conservatory, Norm2.
I have 2 heated and some unheated for when seeds have sprouted, then trays when pricked out. No electricity/ heat in the greenhouse, I grow seeds out there when a little warmer.
Didn't brave going into Croydon but had a nice day out in Greenwich. Went to the indoor market, all around the naval buildings (new film of Les Miserables been filmed there recently) - the Painted Hall which was amazing and the Church. Had lunch in Gourmet Burger (never heard of them before but very nice). Travelled there by train and Docklands Light Railway - bit disconcerting as there is no driver!
Ironing-better do some of that soon. There is a risk of a landslide style disaster as the pile has got so big!
Finally it stopped raining so it was coats on and out for some fresh air. Went to Fountains Abbey, always good for a brisk walk. I was getting cabin fever, sick of it raining!
Good morning, all--we are back to rain on the last day of the year--but my carpets are shampooed, the house is clean, all debts paid, all carbs removed from cupboards and stored in the shed, nicotine patch at the ready, and so I am prepared for the new year.
There is even sunshine in the forecast after today, but I will believe it when I see it!
Downton starts here next Sunday--watched the Christmas one last night, and I'm really looking forward to it!
'Afternoon forkers, how is everyone? Fine and dandy I hope.
I was just thinking I hope son who is in New York doesn't decide to ring once it is midnight there! Have seen the celebrations in New Zealand and Australia on the BBC website. Anyone else seen them?
Need to get down to seed sorting - another of my New Year Resolutions. Yes saw the jar on Facebook - good idea. Need to find a jar......
Downton is worth looking forward to Inka (don't worry - no spoilers here) and I would love to watch it again. Good luck with the patches too - we'll be checking up on you
Nadolig, I found the Christmas version of Downton very disappointing - it didn't seem to gel as far as I was concerned. Still if you enjoyed it that is fine by me
Am not getting ironing withdrawal symptoms at all! Tumble & shake lately, except OH's shirts, oh & my cotton t-shirts, they're both much better with a proper iron.
I've been ruthless with the veg seeds. Big chuck out. Have just told OH when me & daughter next decend on little house, after her exam, shall need the local Wilcos for a big seed stock up!
Anyway, if all goes to plan OH can dig over a new veg patch at daughter's & do them there...... I wish. I shant be digging out any more new beds here, nor there.
I've just had a tree choc, to add to the last of the crisps......oh heck, my jeans..... J.

Posted a link earlier Sasha
Took the kids to Greenwich when they were little-stood- as you do- on the Meridian line
What is this ironing obsession today?
NYS, ironing obsession not come this way.....thank you
Yup, I remember the Meridian line. We stood on the one in the street near the river and behind that famous pub. Did you do that?
