Good day here, bit breezy but nothing like Katie about.
Easter Egg hunt was great and then some friends invited us back for lunch, I thought just a quick sandwich but she did a full roast dinner, venison, really tender, all the veg out the garden, butternut squash and sweet potatoes and curly kale and French green beans, delicious and such a treat.
Lots of chocolate consumed afterwards. Now just have to get the i******g done - perhaps... the fire and a glass of wine seem more tempting.
I know what you mean about the weeding Chicky, I actually really like it too at this time of the year, so exciting discovering things as you go.
Now, i*****g or wine....

Just in from a long day in the garden today been able to be out there all day as we have had carers in all day for my wife.
Have to agree weeding this time of the year is very rewarding seeing all that new growth starting to push its way up to the light, it just the getting up after you been down there so long
Still a nice hot bath and a couple of glasses of red should sort that our.
If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.
Hi everyone, PatE secondborn is very well other than the stress of the house. It's getting complicated re which GP she will register with and which hospital she will have the baby in.
My Dyson went a while ago, my back just couldn't cope with how heavy it was. I bought a GTech and love it. It's as light as a feather and cleans really well.
No gardening today, not been feeling like it, which is unusual for me.
Ours is a pull along Dyson and winds its own cable. Fine for cleaning but a pain to empty and clean when it should be designed to be convenient and easy. It will definitely become the backup machine.
Katie blew her last - I think - as I was cooking dinner. Gardening tomorrow then, just as soon as I get the second cat done on the walls in Possum's bedroom. Former bedroom now.
Lots of weeding and pruning to do and windbreak to tie down - again. Snowdrops to split, heleniums to move, miscanthus to cut back. Loads of fun.

Expect most of you are in bed, I finally got up this afternoon, and the flood had largely gone, although there is still standing water in some of the beds.
OH said quite a few areas round us were flooded, must have been a fairly local event.
Any way must not let it get me down, at least we did not have a proper storm, and the garden has proved very resilient over the years, despite regular flooding.
Now to deal with my neighbour.
KEF thank you for your PM, we fight on, with the help of our OHs.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team

Has Verdun been on today, hope he is ok, and safe from the storm?

We didn't have it as bad as further East , so I don't imagine Verdun had much to worry about.
Good morning. Hope a quiet night was had by all. To be dry here so another bit of gardening will get done.
