Hello again Grandma - just checked onlline - Lidl's gardening stuff starts next monday. I'll be in there to get some more shady-lawn seed.....fraction of the cost of the GC, but unfortunately the moss I thought I had erradicated last year seems to have invaded the newly grassed area again......now moss really is something to have a moan about!
and then there are the pigeons....don't get me started.
Wintersong, I'd give you an A for that post - very funny!
Bjay, you make a good point. One of my sisters is very overweight and the rest of us don't really have a problem. My sis. has been for counselling and knows she has 'issues' from the past which fuel her problem. Anyway, good on yer for your 2 1/2 stone.
Quite agree Rosa. 10 years ago I lost 4 stone at SW. Have been overweight since the age of 7 and as I am a War baby, certainly not from eating the wrong things. However, IMO, some folk are more prone to put on weight than others. My Mum was one of 8, 4 chunky, 3 normal, 1 like a rake. I have 3 children, 1 chunky like me who only has to look at a cake and puts on weight, 1 normal, 1 who can eat for England and nevers put on an ounce. He's very, very slim. That's why I say it's in some people's genes.
Tina, from your picture I would never have guessed you would rather live in a built up area - seems to be a tent in the middle of nowhere!
Well done Rosa Bjay, and Tina, for losing so much weight. I never used to have a problem, thought I was a slim person (if big boned for my height, size 7 shoes for 5'3"!) but since the menopause I've put on 2 stone, can't seem to shift it. Not that I try very hard!
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Ah, the menopause! Don't get me started on that one!! I was always lovely and slim until that happened - or was it the interest in cake I developed? Even my mother commented the other day on my jelly roll!
Good afternoon everyone , I was hoping to get to my allotment today but she who must be obeyed had other ideas, she sat me down on the sofa and we had a mutual agreement and then had to do every thing she wanted first ,its going to be a long day ,(must get out early tomorrow) . why do all dogs bark at the post man ,there are 152 houses in my estate and from the time he arrives the dogs start barking 1/2 hour of constant yap yap yap and then the house alarms go off really loud of course the owners arn't in ,and no matter how often i complain they don't fix the sensors on there doors ,
would like to know why in my road why people cant pick up rubbish and put in the bin ,when it has lain on the verge for at least a month,the perpetrator is not coming back to pick it up,it wont vanish (unless it blows my way),and no one else is.why look at such dirt and walk over it to get to the front door.grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....
Don't get me started! Lots of schoolkids pass my gate and my garden always has crisp packets and sweet wrappers in it. Why do they pick me???? And why do people whose gardens are pretty awful criticise mine??? They seem to think that the ideal garden has nothing in it!! We live in a lane that belongs to the railway company. Why don't they fix the potholes in the road??? Why did the local authority cut the tops off all the trees between the lane and the main road and make them look hideous??? Why did they give planning permission for houses to be built so close behind mine??? Why don't they let me rule the world so that I can make SENSIBLE decisions??? Don't they realise that I am the only one who knows all the answers???
well ive had a really good laugh at all the moans just looked out the garden at the nosy cow next door to see dog ends come flying over, so collecting them all up.any ideas what to do with them? grrrrrrrrrrr

Son's weekend camping trip to Cornwall last year. Only ones there so he thought he would pitch right in the middle! Daft as a brush.
