We are feeling fed up. The French have announced a General Strike for 14th June, the day we are flying to Norfolk. There have been so many strikes recently, lack of petrol, lorries blocking motorways, piles of burning rubber tyres around Paris, cancelled flights and ferries.
Rain today, going shopping. Groceries and yet more potting compost.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
So so night , even after my " relaxation CD" on quietly. I dropped off during it,but woke again. heard the end, turned it off. Not sure if it helps, but hey ho. Will report to hypno guy on Friday and gets his judgement.
Hubby has promised to re-do "hot spot tape" in tunnel. Too high for me as I don't like ladders of any form.
Punkdoc, you're a better man than I. I'd happily name and shame the cowards.
Much to do before VIP guests arrive. I'm going to cut grass today as it's fine and dry so not much else will get done.
Waitrose have asked me to swap to a Tuesday from Thursday but working 12-8 on tills. Didn't factor in the waterning tunnels and dinner before agreeing to that one. duh.
Fairygirl, don't get me started on caravaners. The whole SW starts to sink under the weight of them at this time of year.
Overcast and a bit blustery here today, but hey ho ... we'll still get the jobs done
Why is it that unpleasant PMs, trolls and ne'er-do-wells always raise their ugly heads at weekends, and even more at Bank Holiday weekends? It happens too reliably to be happenstance - they must have very little going on in their lives - we should pity them, I suppose ..............

Good stuff, Pdoc.
Hard luck Fairy...
Great photo Pat. And a lovely hat!
Off to wash curtains, then more gardening I think.
Morning all. I'm behind Punkdoc too.

Have a good day one and all.
Keep warm Pat.
Hello to all who have been on the forum, too many to remember.
Its nearly 6pm, therefore time to cook dinner, so I'd better sign off.
G'day all.
Just been hit with the bomb shell........ that I have to go shopping with OH, to buy essentials for holiday!
I am sure I said I liked BHs. Looking like a bit of an idiot now!
Caravaners!!!! they used to spoil most trips up the west coast of Scotland, ban them. [ apologies to any caravaners ]
When you don't even know who's in the team
S.Yorkshire/Derbyshire border
Don't ban them, just make them drive solely in the hours of darkness.
Morning all
Dull miserable day here.
Lizzie
I need to get my beans planted today, other than that no plans.
Pdoc I know what you mean about the Bank holiday feeling even though we are retired
Hope niece of Dove enjoys her last day at the Hefty household
Everyone else have a good day. Hugs for the workers and poorly peeps.
