    Sorry I missed my usual good morning time. I sprawled on the lounge about 3pm and started watching a painting YouTube thingy with an  ear plug so as not to disturb Hubby, and woke up in the dark at 5.30.image

    anyway, hello all, our dinner is now on, and we'll be eating soon.  We managed to get 3.5mm rain overnight, the first in about a month, so gratefully accepted.

    Hi all.

    Woke up to pouring rain, first thought was fantastic..........then I remembered I am canvassing later.

    Fairy, think you may be right ... it's clouded over now ... just after I stripped the bed and loaded the washing machine and changed the duvet for the light summer one ............... remember, you have me to thank imageimage

    I'm going to finish my coffee and pop out and plant the verbascums and lavender I bought on Saturday before the heavens open ..........

    Seen the weather forecast for Dordogne, 29°! Bit hot for me. Would you like to swap, Hosta? You could have my ferry ticket!

    Good morning.  Bright and sunny with some wispy clouds and a gentle breeze.  OH is already out there digging the trench to bury polytunnel cover in and I have been faffing with orchids which needed watering and tidying.   Next job is another coat of paint on the wall in the guest room and then I'm going to move the tomatoes and dahlias outside.

    Need to phone a man about a disappearing tiler and then seed swoing and herb bed planting.

    Clari - enjoy your day, even if it's not an adventure.

    Busy - have a safe trip back.  Malvern to Dover is not my favourite journey.   Do it every time w ego to see SIL and it doesn't improve.

    Dove - we've been on the light quilt all winter but with a thin patchwork quilt on top.  That'll have to go now.

    Chicky - hope dad is on the mend and FG that you are not feeling too fat and full after your treat.

    Have a cracking day everyone.
