  • Morning all ? It's a beautiful day here today, washing on the line for the first time this year and I'm looking forward to going to bed tonight with line dried bedding.

    I'm off to our little local GC now, I need some more Sunflower seeds and some spring bedding plants.

    I've grown outdoor hyacinths for the first time this year and they are beautiful, they will definitely be a feature of my spring pots now.

    Have a good day everyone ?

    Frustration here.  The PC thinks the printer is turned off and the printer thinks it hasn't got Wifi and OH has filed - therefore hidden - the direct cable connection.  I only need it it to print a recipt for some stuff I ordered online.   Grrr.

    Enjoy the sunshine evreyone.

    Good morning Sunflower Lady - I love the scent of hyacinths but unfortunately if I grow them indoors my poor OH's chest objects ..... so sometimes I grow them outside in pots - the dark ones, think they're called Woodstock, look amazing.

    Popped home for lunch and I could easily NOT go back. 

    Hideous morning so I've let it be known I'll be doing no more overtime for the foreseeable.

    I'm sure you all know how much overtime I've done, much at short notice so I could well have done without one of the junior managagement saying:

    " nice to see you here more than one day a week"

    " Check my time card! I've done overtime 2 out of 3 weeks since November" 

    " no, you don't have an answer to that , do you?"

    that shut him up.

    gggrrrrr. Why do I bother? It certainly isn't for the money.

    Roll on 5 o'clock.

    Hosta - image

    Good to see you again SLady. Hope you can pop in and out regularly now that you've come back to us  image

    I just realsied I didn't say hello to Lesley when she posted the other day. I'd wondered where she was and was hoping it wasn't an issue with her parents.  Hope all is ok if you're looking in again Lesley - difficult time for you, especially when your Mum and Dad aren't nearby. 

    Came in for a bite of lunch. Been busy trimming and tidying and planting out little things in the lovely sunshine. It's even quite peaceful - no screaming brats!   image

    One of those with my cuppa would be nice Dove. Apple ( I assume) and pastry. What's not to like....image

    Wonder how many trips Wonks has made...image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Just the one Fairy but I was chocka with rubbish....probably more to go but I'll do a Scarlet o Hara and think about that tomorrow! Sun is shinning and its time for a cuppa! 

    I didn't see Lesleys post, sorry to hear your having a tough time Lesley, best wishes and hugs image

    Fling one of those over to Suffolk please Dove or do they come in a pair? image

  • DovefromaboveDovefromabove Posts: 88,146

    I only made the one, Fairy ......... with the leftover pastry from the Cornish pasties.  You'll have to fight Hosta for it
