    First Anniversary First Post Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    I think I've mentioned in the past how rubbish I am at growing stuff from seed :o I attempted to grow antirhinums last year as I wanted just white ones and the garden centres only seemed to have mixed trays. From all that I sowed just ONE made it to adulthood, and it was yellow :rotfl:

    Well, it's made it through the winter to remind me again what a disaster I made of it all :D

    or to remind you when life doesn't turn out how you expected it can still be resilient and beautiful?

    Oh I've had a lovely day. My friend is marvellous, and I love her. She'd put on a surprise afternoon tea for me and I got the grand tour of her new home, complete with farm outbuildings etc. Beautiful.
    My blanket just needs the edges sewing in and a border.

    Hi all

    Busy/productive weekend. Quite a bit of rubbish taken to the tip/charity shop. An elderly neighbour gave me some Spode dishes years ago, they are not worth anything on fleabay and I dont really like them that much. Decided they could go to the cs, just have this hope that they go with a set that someone already has and they love them. Better than sitting in a box in my cupboard.

    Left the £1 that I keep in my gym bag in the locker door at the gym on Friday. Really annoyed with myself about this. DS has a friend who helps out at the gym and he told me that they make a fortune out of this. That really didnt make me feel any better.

    Hope you feel better soon FVD and have a lovely time Ally. Going to make a cuppa and pjs on I think.

    Could you use a "trolley coin" in future and then if you leave it, it won't really matter (if you want any let me know have found 3 that you can have)

    I spent Sunday evening baking and listening to podcasts, and this morning I sent the family off to school/work with HM mini pizzas, sandwiches made with HM bread and leftover corned beef, and banana-andcranberry teabread for afters. Feeling very smug.

    Now to take the washing in before the threatened rain...
