Morning folks. Couldn't sleep last night. Finally got an hour or so of sleep.

Over cast and dull here and it looks like rain is on the way for us. I have stuff do so so thats ok.

Stay safe folks.

Good morning folks

Morning all fellow members.
What to do today is the big question.
Cut the front grass? That will take up 5 minutes.
Walk the dog, an hour or so.
A few domestics, another hour.
Drink beer? However long it takes.
Stay safe everyone.

Walk dog.......drink beer. That's your day sorted.

Morning. Nearly 7 miles walked. Overcast and chilly at the moment. Sun not to break through till lunchtime. The weather is breaking down, but can't really complain as it's been a great spell.

The bluebells are reluctant to appear up here so far. Only just peeping through now.

Another nice sunny day in prospect with a light NW wind forecast. Back to the rotovator for a final run over the veg patch. I have nothing planted yet but some seedlings are coming on. Some may regard this as a bit late but the ground is only just getting warmed up and late planting does not seem to hinder the growth.

The bluebells in my garden seem to be a blank this year. Normally there is a good display but this year only one has flowered underneath one of the shrubs.

The sanding down of the patio table is finished, just realized it was about 150ft of 100x50. Why do I do that, feet and metric, odd.

I used to work with a guy that would regularly say eg get me a sheet of 600mm x 3 feet of 5mm. Caught in a time warp.

Morning all, reassemble of the patio table begins today, it is going to be a lot different to the old style that it was.

I, personally, could not be arsed with all that. I would rather waste £50 and buy a new one.
I had a mate (not seen for years) that could not sit.....he just had to find some diy to do. It makes me tired just thinking about it.
But...... I take my hat off to those that can and do .
