    Hi RB, No not tried those, but if bambi comes in again I might get in touch with our village butcherimage

    Watched last of Undercover Monday and Marcella last night. Undercover.....well rather confused, but I would imagine another series in the making. And Marcella......well why would she move Graces body and also how did she on her own!  Think it lost the plot at the end.......or perhaps i did lol. And what happened to the bloke in the cellar? It did rather jump about without image

    Runny & Lily I didn't watch it but I'm sure the Butler did it with a candlestick image

    Runny I know exactly what you mean...role on 2nd week of June here image

    I'll say goodnight now as I can't trust myself to not post again on the IN /OUT thread that HORTICO aka   Mike Allen  started. The blokes are at it again image with encouragement from Tetley image

    Evening all.

    Sorry KEF, guilty as charged, can't help myself.

    P####d it down all day, was even getting wet in the greenhouse.

    2nd Rabies injection done, 1 to go.

    Have a good evening all, I will try harder to be a better person.

    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    Evening all. It's been persisting here most of the day. We needed the rain though. Not often I can say that! I fed the grass just before the building work started. I think if it hadn't been so cold and dry it would be about three feet high by now  image

    I've steered clear of that thread KEF. I don't care for the argy bargy and I don't see the point of debating it either. I've yet to hear any hard facts from either side of the divide so I can't make an informed comment. image

    Thought Marcella was poor. Badly executed, too many loose ends and red herrings, and some characters poorly drawn.  Her character, in particular, not explained well enough -  what did she really get up to and why? What did the chap with the 'illegal' brother have to do with it all? Disappointing when it was from the creator of The Bridge which is superb.

    You need a deer fence lily. They're not cheap either....they're deer/dear....get it?  image image

    Evening all.  Rain last night and this morning, now brightish again.  However much I water new plantings they always seem better with a bit of proper rain... it all looks lovely and fresh now.  image

    I've read bits of that in/out thread but rarely posted - not because I don't have an opinion, but because if I once get really involved in the argument (not really a discussion IMO) I don't think I'll ever get anything else done!

    Not watched Undercover or Marcella.  Sounds as if I might not have missed much...

    I'm trying to sort out details for my Chelsea visit next Wed.  Got train tickets, accommodation sorted, Chelsea ticket waiting in an envelope etc, now looking up buses and tube (though bus is preferable, since it'll be free with my over-27 bus pass image) so I can visit the British Museum on Tuesday afternoon, and the National Gallery on Thursday morning before catching my train home.  I'm ridiculously excited!  image

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    Evening all. Hopeful that OH will get home tomorrowimage  He is definitely on the mend as he told me to "ignore what the doctor said because he was just imagining that I was ill.  I know because I was once a doctor"image

    Liri, glad Lismore plumbing sorted and that you had good weather.

    Panda, hope arm has improved enough for you to deal with the scaffoldingimage

    KEF, good weather required for your roofing and rendering. Fingers crossed.

    Flowers, hope hubby got good news.

    STEVE,may relations with neighbour improve.  Same for you Pdoc.

    Hope today went well Dove and WW.

    Garden has been well watered so the rain can .stop

    RB, I really don't know, possibly as she put the plastic bag over the head of Graces brotherimage As Fairy says far too many loose ends. It jumped about without really finishing scenes properly. Why did the illegal immigrant suddenly leave Marcella? Really don't understand why she would move Grace and bury her. Shame it could have been so good, but lost it's way.image

    Fairy, it's the way you tell 'emimage......gonna need somethingimage

    I watched the last four episode of Marcella today. I thought I could follow it better if I watched it straight through. More red herrings than a fishmongers. More bodies than Midsomer. No, I have no idea why she moved the body. Was there a first series? Did she have Post traumatic stress disorder. Will there be another series?

    Whats for dinner?

  • FairygirlFairygirl Posts: 55,117

    Chicken fidget.

    That's the answer to the last question anyway.

    I have no answers for the others although this was the first series ....image
