Morning all.
Well now I'm on the right page🙄
My neighbour has suggested as I won't be heading off to Spain for five months this year that I share her allotment. She has had an operation so finds it difficult to dig at the minute. So I've jumped at it and start today by moving a heap of manure. This really suits as in the UK we have an apartment without a garden. This re-retirement is getting better, apart from the obvious.

I last painted it 6 years ago.
The west facing end of the bungalow takes a battering as it tends to get sand blasted in the winter storms and I have to do that side every 2-3 years.
I can paint the whole bungalow in 3-4 days he I get a move on.

People are a bit thick just going to supermarkets. Our local deli is churning out delicious pies and pasties freshly made every lunch time. A choice between that or Fray Bentos.......hmm, let me think!Looks that way. How crazy can you get.

Frey Bentos are all pastry with a gravy stain on the bottom.

Exactly. Maybe handy to shove at the back of a cupboard for absolute emergency use but that's about it.
The steak pasties our deli does is stuffed full with lovely Scottish beef in comparison.
Ditto the Magnolia, but we have just painted all the internal rooms and not the outside brickwork
Magnolia used to be the least expensive paint, then they started relabelling it with a variety of exotic names and even more exotic prices.
I want to paint my Shed in one of the vibrant primary colours, Blue or Yellow but Mrs Tenkay isn't keen
Agree. After reading the thread we went and bought 2. We wont be doing that again.
I always think, why dont they charge eg 15% more and put some actual meat in?

Nope, I wasn't very brave and went for very muted for my little bike shed. Think it's called Antler Brown or something.I want to paint my Shed in one of the vibrant primary colours, Blue or Yellow but Mrs Tenkay isn't keen
There is/was a new pie shop supposed to be openinģ near us this week. They have called it To Pie For.
They may have to reconsider that name
.Not sure if it has actually opened now.
Nice bike colours Mo.
