    Morning all, hi Patimage

    It's snowing here.  No surprise there thenimage.  I've got to drive son to the airport shortly so I hope the gritters have been out.

    Lucky niece Doveimage.  She'll have to think of names for them (if she hasn't already).

    Pat I had to smile at your pic.  The old chap reminds me of my Uncle who would be giving directions to somewhere with details of all the roadworks on the wayimageimage.

    Morning all, snow here not heavy but enough to dust things down. Worse to come according to weather warning. Oh well kettle on cuppa time methinks.

    Morning all.

    Chilly and overcast this morning. 

    Perhaps it was his wife phoning him Pat reminding to get her shopping. Don't suppose anyone on here would repost the pic. But be careful f others looking in. 

     

    I'm on Nanna duty today with little poppet, yippeeimage

     

    See you later have a good day everyone.

    Morning all.

    Working fine here too.

    Lovely day, so far. More weeding. Tomorrow's forecast is heavy rain so I will make cakes for the Open Day. Need to go to SM but delivery man is coming with mole traps.

    Have tried the bomb thing recommended by Obelixx but the thing the mole has to bump into has to go into the chimney of a mole hill and the mole is passing through the tunnel underneath and not going up the chimney. The sensor thing has to be pushed up, not sideways, so OH is doubtful that it will work image Cost 72€

    Good morning image

    Overcast here but not actually raining, although it clearly has overnight.  Need to bundle up loads of débris this morning and we're also waiting for news of OH's sister who's hoping to get a full diagnosis and prognosis of her breast cancer.  OH not happy at the best of times, and what with her back, this is not the best of times. image

    Still, crack on, eh?

    Hello all. It's almost dark here at 5.15 pm, but we're expecting rain. It's certainly cloudy. 

    Thanks for your advice, SGLily. I should have thought of that. I usually only send photos from the property. Whoops! red face and now feeling guilty.  I hope no one does it.

    Lesley, yes I wondered about that. Perhaps he was telling her to get the kettle on.

    i can't believe it's already Friday and second last day of April. Birthday 29th for grandson, and 30th for my late Dad (dob 1906).  I assume Dove will be setting up a May site soon.  87 pages in April! 

    imageHave a good day.image

    Sorry that things aren't great just now Steve. As you say, crack on and try to stay positive.
