Polka that is a really good result I bet you feel a bit of a weight off your shoulders. Not giving medical advise just recounting an event - DH has the horrid scabby patch about the size of a whole adult hand on his leg - been there a couple of years and he has seen many gps/pharmies who have said a range of things - fungal/ezcema/psorisis (sp) and he has had a range of stuff for it which did nothing. Well I brought a couple of aloe vera plants from lidl in case anyne got sunburn and hubby has been using a cut leaf on it for about 6 weeks now and the difference is amazing. It is nowhere near as red and had reduced in size to about the size of an adult palm now. He is also using a french moisurizer on it just to keep it hydrated but he was using this anyhow so we are sure it is the aloe which is having an effect.

Another survey completed - they are a welcome change from the painting today!

Pigpen - have you ever thought about being an agony aunt? You have such a lovely way a phrasing advice/comments, such as your comments to Polkadot, you always manage to put into words what so many of us are thinking. Its something that cannot be taught, your a natural. Thanks for being YOU!

I can also reduce people to gibbering wrecks in a few sentences.. I have absolutely no tact, no diplomacy and no subtleness... but thank you... I do try.. I sometimes think I just sound like a know-it-all lol

Polkadot.. glad you got sorted..

Hubby is home.

The middle room has had its second coat of emulsion.. need to touch up the white and do another coat on the gloss then measure up for doors and carpet and get the curtain pole up and my new curtains.. I am thinking of going for a corner suite with a sofabed bit.. just so people think I'm a wee bit posh lol.

Best do something productive

I spent another hour in the garden and I've finished the first dig of the border and cleared out all the plants. Just hardy geraniums and iris that had gone mad. I moved half a dozen iris to the back of the border and I'm sure I haven't got all the geraniums out, I bet some appear next year. I've filled the green wheelie bin and I've got eight black bags full too. DD2 has said she will take me to the composting centre tomorrow.

I'm really hot now but luckily it only started drizzling just as I finished. Oh, I got the last of the washing in before I started digging and that's all folded and put away.

In a week or two I'll dig it all over again and hope I can get it finer, then I can start looking for plants. And I want to buy some bulbs for the border I redid last month ready for when the annuals come out. And (there's always an and) I will need two more bags of bark chippings for the new border.

can someone give me a kick please! i seem to have lost all motivation & have done nothing since this morning my mum rang (3 times) and we've been sorting out when to go shopiing & what sort of dress i want, which lead to me looking at wedding dresses online, which is fatal cos then i start off in my own little world day dreaming the day away :rotfl:

so i need my motivation back or the place will be a state when df gets home!
