Loved your timely response Pat. Have just come in from the garden and ate a lovely BLT. Finally got to sleep about 4 this morning when painkillers sorted out aches and pains.
Been back in the garden this morning and finished the mulching, also pruned some more shrubs, fed clematis and roses, scarified lawns and tidied shed. It's not looking good for tonight is it Never mind the garden looks lovely now, well it will when the lawn has recovered a bit.
flumpy, it's a bit of a pain,and doesn't always work, but they're upgrading next week so might be easier then.
Go to the message,, bottom right corner, click on quote, then click on unquote, then go to your message writing box and click the inverted commas and the message should appear.
You can crop out the bits you don't want, eg, if it's a long posting and you only want to quote part of it.
In theory, if you then hit the return bar, you can add something underneath, but sometimes it appears in the same quoted box
At last! I've done a quote, I think. I just clicked on "quote" before, not "unquote" as well. Yet I'm sure I've done quotes in the past but I don't remember clicking on both.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Must clear out the stable. Full of bits of garden equipment, mostly OH's, and my old trays of shrivelled shallots and onions from year before last that I haven't chucked yet. Grew too many that year and shallots were such a bother to peel. The horse dentist is coming tomorrow for daughter's horse who isn't chewing her horse nuts properly so I need a decent safe space in the large loose box.

Must try that quotes thing - but maybe I'll wait for next week's upgrade and see if it's still the same. Now I'm 27 it takes me a bit longer to learn things...
How lovely to go for a walk without gloves! No gardening today because OH is going away tomorrow for a couple of days, so it seemed only fair to spend time with him today. But I should be able to spend Monday and Tuesday almost entirely in the garden... bliss! In the meantime it's great to feel inspired, reading what you lot have been up to in your gardens.
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
Grandkids round . So no gardening . Sat Outside .fed the chickens . A lovely Sunday roast of burgers. Chips and popping chicken ?? . Gone now ..a beer and the footie on

Oh dear, didn't realise the first one that I practised on before going back to Hosta's post would still be there!
Guests have gone, lunch went well.

finished outdoors for the day. Realised at 4.30 we'd been at it since breakfast. ( no tittering at the back now ) and hadn't had any lunch.
Bit of leftover cottage pie will keep us going until din dins tonight. Thai prawn stir fry. YUM
Good evening , been outside today , just lit fire and having a beer before dinner
Cleaned o/h car , then did lots in garden , general tidying up , weeding and couple of replacement hanging brackets
Even nice enough for coffee break outside
Dinner is beef dish , so bottle red is called for I think
