Good afternoon folks a dull day here but warm Sun keeps trying to break through hope you are okay keeping well Ann G Florence .Ginnie. Joan any one who looks in enjoy your weekend stay safe Take Care Barbara Liz hello xx :-)

Hello all, hope Florence is getting straight in he lovely new home but hope she is taking breaks to admire the view.

You have been bust Joan, I have done an hour in the garden mainly cutting back Aquilegia that have finished flowering and ditto forget me nots which get pulled up after flowering. We desperately need some rain. My garden bin is full again as I also attacked the blackberry again.

Barbara, have a good weekend, and the rest of you too.

‘Get through your 50s in good shape and you could well live to be 90’ ;-)

Spent another hour and a half in the garden can’t get another leaf in the garden bin, stuff grows when I am not looking. Discovered that the loganberry that we were not keen on has regrown after Dad chopped it down so I have cut that back again

I have had another go at tying up the peonies and that does look better. Cut back loads of Hellebores. Then The sun went in so I decided to have a go with the hose, I had never unreeled it before.But I am really pleased with myself as I managed it and managed to water almost the whole garden. Next step was reeling it back up but that was surprisingly easy. There is a leak is on the bit that joins two hoses.so I need to buy a new connector.

Ziona Chana, the head of a religious sect, died on Sunday, leaving behind 38 wives, 89 children and 36 grandchildren. ;-)

Presumably not in this country or that would have been a lot of child benefit. did it say how old he was Dermot?

22 degrees here already, I have a nurse appointment later then I am going with my friend/neighbour to the local garden centre for coffee.

At the moment I am resting and cooling down after cutting the lawn. Phew. Hope you can all cool off today.

Bedouins of Arabia are considered to be exceptionally intelligent.

regarding my and your last posts Dermot, having all those children, wives etc didn't shorten his life then!

An ancient saying:dug up from the depth of my fading memory - "May you live long & may you have many children". ;-)

Hello to everyone, hope you are all well.
Another beautiful hot day (too hot for me though). Thunderstorms may happen this evening and then it may get cooler .

Haven't been doing much just pottering in the garden trying to keep it neat and tidy as well as doing bits in the house.

We are looking at replacing our bath with a walk in shower as it gets more difficult to get in and out the bath. We have a shower over the bath at the moment. It's the thought of having the work done that put me off.

Take care everyone.

Nudge :-)
