Welcome home Nimby xxx
Lovely sunshine here . I managed to get to Mumbles to pay a bill but its chaos down there with Tesco stocking their shelves with a huge lorry blocking the road so I was back in less than an hour. Happy to enjoy the day now
Nimby glad you enjoyed your holiday in Edinburgh. Cold here today and it was a visit to the hairdressers then some shop.ping
Weāve had two lovely days here though I think the forecast is for it to be cooler over the weekend. Took Rob out on Thursday, had lunch at the Garden Centre and bought tomato plants - and a new hosta. Started off full of fuss and feather this morning intending to resurrect my old pressure washer and have a go at the patio since youngest son is resolutely ignoring my pleas. After a thoroughly frustrating hour - hose kept blowing off but not enough pressure to clean anything off the patio - I threw in the towel. However I have got the tomatoes into their homes and now am going to be slave to the greenhouse for the next three/four months! I do wonder if itās worth itā¦
Much cooler here . I was going to tidy up the pots on the balcony but think I will postpone
My daughter gave me a tomato plant but I put it out and then murdered it with plant food lol It was left from last year and I didnt read the instructions
The sun finally came out late morning.Done some work in the garden-thatās me done for the day!
Lovely sunshine again.Been outside painting the top of the front wall,wanted to do it early before the sun got there.Feeling pleased with myself!
Enjoy the sun.
Lovely sunshine here today,really warm.
Iāve done half an hour tidying pots so just have to buy some new plants to go in them . My geraniums lasted for years but all expired at the same time
Enjoy the day
Itās a lovely day. Not too hot, gentle breeze, lovely. Been to the tip. Always an exciting experience. I gave Michaelās big off road mobility scooter away yesterday, to someone on Freecycle. While I was at it I started nibbling away at a double garage full to the brim. Michael has so many tools, including a milling machine and a lathe, which are huge. Everything has to be gone through with a tooth comb. A neighbour came with his wheelbarrow and took away a heap.
Canāt believe I stayed up to watch that political broadcast that goes under the guise of Eurovision. Australia with a Japanese singer? Britain were dreadful as usual.
Celyn , I recorded it so fast forwarded it . It was dire !!! The Australian was a Korean girl who had emigrated to Brisbane aged 9 . She got lots of votes but I didnāt think much of her
Daughter visited hlf way through so just finished watching (sort of)
I couldnāt face Eurovision so watched the documentary about Swansea City FC! Fascinating!! Has been lovely here today, went down the road with Lexi and Missy at 7 am and it was wonderful. Good thing I covered my potatoes and the courgette plants as we had a frost last night. Iāve covered them again tonight as the temperature is dropping fast, though it has been really warm all day. Took Lexi back to her Dad after lunch and found granddaughter making a box (for the YFC rally in three weeks time). She was using all the power tools - under her Dadās watchful eye - and has to explain on the day of the rally exactly how she made it!
Sun is trying to come out here but its quite chilly with a breeze
Just finished with the hoover so thats my lot
Out and about early-now in for the rest of day.Quite a nippy wind today-good drying day thoā.
Itās been sunny here but the wind has a bite to itā¦
Our usual teacher is on hols in Turkey so we have a young man called Darryl taking the classes this week and lastā¦heās a smashing dancer and always has a smile on his faceā¦all our Mon afternoon ladies want to mother him;-)
A bit cooler her this morning. Iām off into town to meet a friend and pick up our plane tickets for next week.
Overcast,chilly and looks like rain so a duvet day for me
Iāve just received a DVD of Stella from Lovefilm so will enjoy that
Cloudy and chilly here too.Love Stella, enjoy it Jac,have the tissues ready!Looking forward to the Christmas special.
a nice morning,now trying to rain,turned cooler
Rhosyn , I really enjoyed the DVD . It was 3 episodes on one disc so Iāve seen them all now. Ruth is s really good writer and actor
I bet he enjoys the mothering too, nimby.
The expected rain has arrived overnight, now to see if weather predictions of it being extremely wet today come true. Iām not too unhappy as Iāve done a lot of new planting, and watering would be time consuming. I can take advantage to spend today indoors clearing the dining room. Decorator coming Monday. A lady decorator, we have a few in this area now.
Saw a lovely rainbow during the walk this morning.Put the heating on yesterday evening,felt a bit chilly in the house I wasnāt the only-my dog walking friend said she had herās on too.Itās the middle of May!
