Good morning all.
It is cold out but a blue sky and not a lot of wind.
I started to get some of the sludge out of the pond yesterday. It is going to be a big job and thinking about a plan B.
At least now after the rain we had on Friday, it has put more much needed oxygen into the pond.
The fish are not now on the surface gulping the air. That’s something new I have learnt.
Jan. when I got my new iPad it also came with a different lead and also the different 3pin mains plug. Why do Apple do this?
Emjay, simply because they can! They like to make life difficult for us. And talking about the plug, because the pins retract back into the main body, I struggled to pull it out of the adaptor in the front room last night. I wanted to use the plug hole for something different. I may need to find a permanent home for it, whereby I won’t keep needing to remove it.
It is darn cold out. I found Holly’s woolly coat that a friend knitted a few years ago. Despite putting on weight, it still fits her.
Yes, one of the press studs had come undone, which I remedied.
Forgot to add, I’ve ordered a pack of adaptor leads from Amazon, should arrive today. There are four in the pack, one of which should be a usb plug. Should make life easier for recharging or attaching to a pc, for file transfer.
Do you not have any Pumps or Filters in the Pond Emjay?
Good morning all, looks like its going to be a nice day but cold.
Off out at 9am to do our weekly shopping.
Have a nice day all.
Morning all.
Wonder if it will still be too cold for the allotment? I will see…
The sun has just come out Janet.
Good morning all.
Bright but cold out.
I have put my heating on, just to warm up the house. It is showing 15c here in the lounge.
Off to Sainsburys shortly for my weekly shop.
Susie. Yes I do have pump with filter in the pond, but when I run it, it gets blocked up very quickly and have to get it out and clean the filters. I do have 2 sets of filters for it.
That is why the pond does need a proper clean.
Slightly white on the garage roof this morning. Must have been a bit of an air frost last night. Preparing places on the allotment yesterday to grow garlic. Should get this in asap as it needs the cold weather to develop properly.
Good morning all, cold and very windy here.
Yes Emjay, your pond needs a good clean out.
I’ve got another Female Guppy giving birth and looks like she is going to die, these Male Guppies are too raunchy, they are at it all the time.
Off into Gorleston this morning.
Have a nice day all.
Morning.
I couldn’t be doing with tropical fish, the maintenance and the dying of them. Sad.
Cafe meet this morning.
One of our little shops was broken into early hours. The daughter of a friend at top of my road lives just doors away and phoned her mum at 4am, terrified of the banging she could hear.
Good morning all.
It is not so cold out this morning. No condensation on the windows.
We have a blue sky here.
I might take a trip to B&Q later as I need a sieve. The plastic one I had just disintegrated. Well it was old.
Of to the Dr this afternoon for an injection in my arthritis left hand.
Good morning all, its very windy here.
Not going out today.
Emjay, hope the injection didn’t hurt too much.
Have a nice day all.
Morning all.
Not going out either, cept for the obligatory dog walks.
Good morning all.
Yes I am going out. This morning there is the coffee and chat at ageUK. Also there is going to be a ‘Taster session’ of a ‘Join the band’.
It seems that we will have the opportunity to learn to play musical instruments.
I shall take a couple of my harmonics there.
I had the injection yesterday afternoon, and it did hurt when he stuck the needle in. Feels a bit better already.
This afternoon I have a dentist appointment.
Busy busy.
Weather here is not too bad at the moment, and I have batten down the hatches, for the expected storm later today or tomorrow
Morning Emjay. How are you getting on with the ukulele? Glad you are getting out and about.
Morning all.
Was busy yesterday making lots of appointments for myself (rebook telephone consultation, flu and Covid jabs, and vet for Holly). Dog has made her ear sore by scratching it so we are off to see our young man later this afternoon. I might try and get to see my sister before then, as our appt isn’t until 4.30.
Morning all, its raining here.
Off to Morrison’s some time this morning for Breakfast/Lunch, so no cooking for me today.
Have a nice day all.
Good morning all.
It’s on and off raining here.
I managed to do my daily stroll around the field.
Smart meters. It would seem that they are not so smart.
I got an email from my energy supplier ‘Shell’. Telling me that they have lost connection to my meters, so I will have to send them the readings.
I noticed that there are nothing showing on the gas meter, but there is something on the electric meter.
The monitor that I have put back on in the lounge is showing readings. I really don’t understand how it works.
I shall phone them later and tell then to get it sorted.
