Off to catch up with some old friends this morning, and borrow their sewing machine.
Afterwards, I shall walk another 5 mile stretch of the Bridgewater canal and get a train back home.
Have a good one.
@May …i never knew you could grow spuds in pots. Do they do well May or need and special requirements?
@valentinojess … that’s a bummer getting a cold and so early in the season makes it more depressing. Hope you feel better soon.
@Dextrous63 … Sewing machine? Patching your jeans or making your own curtains? The mind boggles.
5 miles hey? That’s impressive. I ought to knuckle down and do some serious calorie-crunching.
Anyone here tried Tai Chi?

Good morning Folks,a rainy one here so glad I got a bit done in the garden yesterday,
It’s easy peasy to grow potatoes in large pots outside in the garden Morty,just put any sprouted ones You have into the pots with sprouts facing up,cover with compost,then leave for a few Months until leaves turn yellow,then dig 'em out…Try it next Spring/Summer.
I hope You’re feeling a bit better today Jessie,and Dex’ You must be fit to walk 5 miles,good for You.
Have a good Sunday All,xx

Good morning Each,it was quite a chilly one here earlier on so I wore My ankle Boots when I went to the co-op for rolls,they didn’t just keep My feet warm,but supported My arthritic right ankle too…so…it’s boots from now on when out walking.
Have a good Monday All and see Ye A’ later.xx
@May … definitely look after your feet and ankles if you have arthritis.
A couple of years ago when I found it especially hard to get my feet into ankle boots I came across a pair that had zips on both sides … much handier and easier to get on.
It’s Autumnal here today too though I noticed the pavement-people going by still wearing t-shirts with bare arms and the guys are wearing shorts.
Why do blokes always wear shorts?

Good morning, weather not very nice here today. I’ve a pair of boots furl lined and ideal for rain and snow. Phoned for an appointment this morning none left, Went to the pharmacy as recommended heart and everything is fine and don’t need an antibiotic.
Due to rain later. My back is a fair bit better, but the pain has moved to my neck and thighs now. 
Ho hum. Will get some decorating done later. Apart from that, nothing planned.
Have a good one, one and all.

Painted the walls yesterday. This back is too knackered today to do the woodwork.
So. A lounging around day, and we’re off to the theatre this evening to see East is East.
Hope the meds kick in quick Val.
