Been AWOL for a couple of days, just so busy, we have had two soundproof walls built between bedrooms and although the builder has done his best to work tidily the dust has managed to get everywhere. The power steamer is coming out today once he has finished the last few bits.
Also went on a 'girls night out' on Thursday - the first time since we have lived in France. We went for a nice meal and then to the pictures and a drink afterwards, it was really lovely, although OH was not too pleased when I came in after 11pm - made me feel a bit like Cinderella. Next time I will make sure I am out until after midnight - that will teach him a lesson.
Sorry to hear you are still ill Punkdoc.
Your night out in London sounded lovely Lizzie, you won't want to be coming back to France will you!
Tea and toast sounds like a super idea Dove, think I'll join you all.
Have a good day everyone, I will try and read back and see what else I have missed.

Missed your last post there Lesley - walking tomorrow as it's to be a good day. Haven't decided where yet. Don't fancy wading through the thigh deep stuff - knee high's hard enough. At least on the popular hills you usually get someone else's footsteps to follow! Possibly Glen Fyne or some of the lower hills at Glen Luss.
Hoover needed here too.....
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Good morning, evening Pat, hope the recovery cintinues
to everyone north of the border I think we will all get some white stuff today, stay safe
Dove let us know what the new potatoes are they a new colour? I am doing a new dish with potatoes tonight, ( new to me) muffin potatoes? Anyone done this?
I am hoping it stays frosty as friends coming for dinner tonight and staying over with their lovely black lab. I wasn't looking forward to 12 dirty paws Dinner all prepped just have veggies and lamb to prepare. We will finish off last years garden mint off
hope all poorlies feeling better

Morning all. Not been here for a few months. I'm on holiday at the moment, its 6.10pm in Japan. Wrong time of year for garden visits really bit will put a few pictures on gardens visited thread when I get back home on sun/Mon. Just lucky enough to catch the earliest hint of blossom in Tokyo - plum as its too early for the cherry blossom.
Hope you are all well and I'll catch up in a few days.
Morning all. Good to see you MrsG - looking forward to Japanese garden pics
Have checked the weather forecast and although it is persisting here, its meant to be better on the south coast, so our trip to West Dean (snowdrop and hellebore spotting) is on. We would be going for a walk here anyway - so may as well walk in the rain and have something to look at.

Hello Mrs Garden - good to see you
Hope you're having a lovely time!
LillyP - the potatoes are rosy, like apples (well, according to the picture on the website they are - I'll let you know when I've seen them)
