  Reply | Contact Morning all, been raining during the night but has stopped now. Your new sofas look nice Sue and how adorable does Sasha look. Sorry you are still not well asj, hope you feel better soon, how is Caesar, I bet he is keeping you company while you are in bed. Sounds like things are back to normal with you Susiq, there are so many nice places to visit on our door step too but we never get round to going, it's like the beach, we live so close but the only time I go is in the winter with the dogs. Well I must be losing my touch as no bargains yesterday, just boring food shopping. I am off down the town shortly so........Hope you all have a nice day x

I didn't pick up any bargains in town this morning either lillyrose. I'm off up the greenhouse to see if any more seedlings have come up. sue1002

  Reply | Contact Yes Richard, where is Eva - Eva???? You must be losing your touch Lillyrose, unusual for you not to spot any bargains! I'm envious Sue of your seedlings, am hoping to start tomorrow with sowing some seeds. Its an absolutely beautiful day today, would have been perfect for gardening, but got to get the lodge ready for new guests - so its a cleaning day for me Catch up laters...........

  Reply | Contact  Pouring hard here. You must have my share of sun Susiq. Only thing I found in town this morning was 2 new tops for myself in the winter clearance sale. Lots more seeds are up today, and the mixed salad leaves in the garden are through too. I will be re potting and sowing this aft as it is too wet to garden. You would love our harbour Richard, it is very old fashioned and always full of fishing boats. I must admit I do like walking around there and stopping at the fish shed with all the lovely fresh fish.

  Reply | Contact  I think you've got our share of the sun too today Susiq  It's been raining on and off and all I've got round to doing outside is taking the tomato seedlings that have come up (5 out of the 7 varieties) out of the propagator and came back in again.  I have still been productive though and when I sat down to watch 'Loose Women', I started knitting the back of a little cardigan and finished it (the back, not the whole lot) a little while ago. You did well in town this morning lillyrose sue1002

  Reply | Contact  Well done with the knitting Sue, if you have any wool spare would you be able to knit me a pair of swimming trunks. It sounds as though you are busy today Susiq getting the lodge ready I expect you would rather be in the polytunnel doing some planting. How are the chooks doing these days? That sounds great to be walking down the harbour lillyrose you can't beat a bit of fresh fish... Good to see you back asj hope you are feeling better now -Richard

  Reply | Contact Will you all please stop it - with how well your seedlings are doing - I am champing at the bit here, to even get started Sue - you clever thing you - I bet its great knitting 'little things' you get 'em done much quicker, would love to see a pic when you've finished it. Richard, knitted 'anything' swimwise is not a 'good look' especially when exiting the water, I seem to recall Chooks are great thanks, back to laying an egg each every day, now the weather has improved At least you got something today Lillyrose Mince and tatties, and then I'm crashing like a complete couch potato - ah, speaking of which, thats something else I need to get planted pronto

  Reply | Contact  Those cakes and biscuits of Nicola's are making me salivate Richard, I like the rabbit shaped ones. You're right Susiq, it doesn't take long to knit the 'little things', it's been years since I last knitted anything and at least I hadn't forgotten how  For the amount of patterns that I've got, there will be more than one pic  I'm sure once you get started on your seed sowing that it won't take long for yours to catch up with ours sue1002

  lillyrose Location: kent Joined on: 02 Mar 2010 Posts: 2,973	Reply | Contact Morning all. Thick fog here at the moment, it was really spooky going round the park. If the weather man is right it will be a sunny day later. Don't read this bit Susiq, my radishes are through in the garden this morning and my asters, zinnias and petunias in the prop. Hope you have a good shop this morning Sue and everyone else have a good day whatever you do x.
