    I've just tried Hubby's suggestion of touching the little circular arrow at the top of the screen, and what do you know, it worked. I've been able to read everyone's posts without sending a dummy one first. It seems as though I'm beginning to work the new system out, after all.image

    It's Mother's Day today, and have received a lovely message from our Son along with a photo of one of his cats. She's a gorgeous little thing.  We're planning a very quiet day here which suits me very well. The concrete outside looks wet, so hurray, we've had rain overnight.  When we were out the back yesterday, we noted that the dams are all about a metre below their levels, so any rain will be appreciated.

    good morning to all when you are around.

    Morning Joyce. Your friend must be keen. They've been getting a lot of rain over the last few days, and when it rains up there, IT REALLY RAINS - talk about tropical downpour, you have to experience it to believe it.  one time I had to pull over and wait it out because the windscreen wipers just couldn't cope.

    wet drizzle here today, for which we are suitably grateful. image

    Good morning all image

    I'm getting the hang of things on here too Pat - just a few more tweaks and I think it'll be ok - I did have serious doubts earlier image

    Topbird, was it your OH who wanted to photograph the Flying Scotsman on it's visit to Norwich later this month?  Has he picked up that the visit has been postponed due to the problems caused on previous trips by idiots on the line???  image

    It's a glorious morning - nearly 18C already and only dropping to 10.7C overnight.  The wildlife seemed to enjoy the warm night too - I heard tawny owls and muntjacs calling quite close by, and I'm sure I heard a barn owl too - I've not heard one around here before image

    And I have an announcerment to make - today is Officially Gardening and BBQing day today !!! And the sunlounger is coming out of the garage image


    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    And happy Mothers Day to Pat !
