Morning all, sunny and warm here today. Doing some shopping for a friend of my mother who is isolating, then off to cut my late aunt’s grass.

Morning one and all - sunny again and pleasantly mild - but you can still cool off by simply standing in the shade and 'enjoying' the Easterly wind.

I always feel inadequate when I look at the wildlife in my garden Phil - it consists mainly of slugs, snails and the content of someone's cat's digestive system - and there's you coping with snakes, squirrels and monkeys. We haven't even got many birds at the moment - probably because there are dozens of wood pigeons which have eaten all the available food in the area.

Afternoon all, glorious day here, Got lots more re-potting & gardening work done. Running out of compost again & finally had an email from QVC who I ordered 80 litres of potting compost from on the 26th March saying I had should have had it by the 7th of April & that was it


ASDA chicken crown roast tatties & parsnips with broccoli for tea



They hate seeing you sat down doin' nowt! I was happily driving virtual trains on the GWR when SWMBO says the carpets manky & needs cleaning then gets the shampooer out the garage for me

I think I'm running out of things to do.
After a shower, a shave and a shampoo this morning, I sat down and watched a 1971 episode of "The Persuaders" - Roger Moore and Tony Curtis
I then decided to do something more energetic, so stripped down my Karcher Window Vac and gave it a thorough clean up.
Having exhausted myself on that job, I spotted that there was a Western on TV - "Fort Massacre" from 1958, starring Joel McCrea. That kept me in the armchair for two hours.
Tomorrow, being adventurous as I am, I might have a hunt for some episodes of Bill & Ben the Flowerpot Men to watch

Be careful Rod, no over doing it.
