Docs seem to think he has possibly got fibreglass in his eyes (he is electrician so quite possible). He has been in a lot of pain for 4-5 days now and doc finally referred him

While I'm waiting going to lot on my strawberry plants grown from seed one little 10p pot and we have got over 35 plants !!!! Should get lots of nice strawberry next year

Pm hope you are ok that's very early to be awake

Ah how can heat keep you awake at night ? I still have my 13.5 tog winter quilt out its so cold at night still here lol

Cm

Oh CM hope brother will be ok and it isn't fibreglass in his eyes, such a delicate area

I can't stand being hot especially at night even in winter only have a 4.5 tog quilt, no heating on near bed time and fans in room in summer nearly always have window open at night even in winter and keep my feet out from under cover as they get restless must be my scottish blood really don't do hot as gives me headaches. On summer hols I always stay under shade and when walking find as much shade as possible

Evening all

Here we have one chocolate cupcake with pick icing rose piped onto the top.


Wanted to use the anchor Baking kit and it made really nice butter cream using the soft tub stuff . Made a dozen and now only 7 left as everyone wanted one after their tea. OH picked one with the little butterflies on but didn't realise how hard they were and picked them off as they were poking him in the mouth lol.

Really turned muggy here hopefully will get some heavy rain the spuds and vegs garden could really use it and the water butts are nearly all empty

Right off to clean up my sticky icing sugar covered kitchen

Good Morning CW and everyone else

Great news about DS and his toe not hurting this morning such a relief for you both. It's a pain not being able to walk around properly atm but will be worth it when he all recovered suppose it's keeping him active enough sitting down does he read a lot or is it computer games he prefers. May be worth a new challenge that will occupy his brain.

Glad to hear brother hasn't got fibreglass in his eyes, hopefully scratches will repair quickly you have to be so careful with eye sight not worth taking risks so great he went and got them checked.
