I have a very busy day planned Man Utd play Liverpool then Man City play Arsenal, this will give me a great opportunity to finish knitting the hat. I also need to do some ironing and may fit in a Sunday Roast but sadly not Beef Wellington.
Aw Pam, that's not nice. I grew up opposite a farm & the foxes were a real pain!
OH has just presented me with a cuppa & a piece of lemon drizzle cake... that's my treat for today!
The grenhouse does look quite good, even if I say so myself. It didnt rain after all overnight afterwards, but cant help that. The staging is now covered with brushed out plastic & terracotta pots. They need storing away next. I rarely wash any out, unless signs of a bad 'bug' infestation. I also did the winter fruit bush prune & some weeding beneath them. Shall feed & mulch them sometime soon.
Need to hoover today as daughter starts nights again tomorrow- last lot ever apparently- so the rest of this week will have to be quiet!
We're having plaice done someway for lunch before OH goes back. Must fine some vegs soon. Not sure what daughter will get for her meal this evening, think shall raid the freeezer.J.
Dean, I can't give much advice on the iPad thing I'm afraid, Mine was free as a 'Loyalty' reward from T-Mobile, so choosing the model wasn't an option.
Just having a tea and toast break. Left over lamb for tea. I do what mam did, slice it up and heat it through in the gravy. Made sure we had plenty of red wine gravy left over.
No particular going out plans for today.
Geoff, hope the chickens appreciate your dedication.
Pam, sorry to hear about yours.
I am imagining Becks sitting on the floor amidst a huge pile of shredded paper.
Hello all, fed horses, went to late church (there is C of E in France), roast in oven. OH isn't back from UK til Tuesday. Having roast 'cos then I can heat it in microwave for Monday and Tuesday and there are veg including butternut squash roasting with it for soup for evenings.
Bit worrying about snow, OH will be taking plane from Stansted, hope he gets there allright and plane takes off.
Hope to clean out greenhouse this afternoon having read some of the other posts about people cleaning greenhouses. Dead tomatoes still in it.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
I am attempting to rescue 2 moth orchid plants. The one was M's and the other I bought as a present for someone but kept it myself
They have been neglected of late so have bought some compost, brought water in from the butt to get to room temperature and am following A Titchmarsh instructions in Dec GW mag. , At moment am just soaking the small one without compost as roots were dry and compost non-existent.

Pam, that's a shame about your chucks.
Hat! That's a point where is my woolly hat? Guess I'd best find it just in case.
I knitted my grand daughter a hat and the style was called T-bag. She looks very cute in it. She looks cute whatever, mind you
just going to sort out/lay fire for later. If it's as cold as they say will need that.
Back in-mission completed-
OH is sorting out a freezer-not allowed to get involved
Bjay is having trouble stopping a soggy bottom
Kate will be shouting at the TV
Becks is shredding paper
Liz have seen bits of Take Me Out-for some reason it doesn't appeal
Pam -that is sad about the chickens
Dont think I have ever had beef wellington-is it rubbery?
Morning everybody else
Bjay I looked at t-bag hats but think you have to be young and cute to get away with that style.
Geoff will you be having odd menus now?

I have issued a decree-that we need to start eating stuff that is stored and stop storing more
Are you telling us Kate that you are not young and cute ?

Anyone any advice??
