you're your own worse enemy aren't you LW I hope it turns out lovely for you, when will it be ready to drink ?

We all have mooky days

Not sure, as it's at least 10 years since I made elderflower.
I imagine fermetation will be about a month, then it has to settle, and the book says to leave it for 6 months after bottling. So it might be ready for my birthday next year.;)

It's all Mr LW's fault. He decided to cut back the elder branches that were overhanging our garden at the weekend, and there was loads of lovely blossom on them, so it seemed a shame not to use it.....:rolleyes::D

And anyway, it'll be less purple berries for the birds to eat and then go and poo on my washing.....:rotfl:

Hope BZ's asleep by now, and everyone else is ok.

Thanks guys....I was asleep....but only after collapsing on the kitchen floor I'm gonna have some fearsome bruises! :shocked: I've never made it all the way to a blackout/faint/collapse before....it's not something I want to repeat either and I'm hoping this one was just due to exhaustion I was vaguely aware that I'd fallen into the corner of the built in cupboard thing under the stairs that's in the kitchen and smashed my back (and perhaps my head?) into it....I'm gonna be black and blue, I'm sure Luckily DF was still here getting ready for work and I finally managed to call him - wasn't aware he was there until I semi-came-round and realised something was trying to hoik me up by my armpits

purplecatlover

fingers crossed it was just exhaustion bz tis not good to go collapsing like that.

lw i wouldnt have the patience to wait that long for it. i think id struggle even leaving it for a few weeks to settle.

I'm still awake dude....still. It's just not on. My arm must've been spasming all night through and now I've got a trapped nerve type pain with it too...am I impressed...??

I've found this site http://krispixton.com/PathPix/ which is more trial versions of little logic puzzles - think it's the makers of knarly jigs..? Either way, I thought you might be interested.

Weff riddles is another good distraction, be warned though, it's really not easy!

i got stuck on level 3 and tried to get here only to find out that the forum was down...i had forgotten.

bz. Right. Auntie Axe hat on *g*
You must go to the doctors - any umexplained collapse needs to be looked at. It may very well be exhaustion, but it was by collapsing that I broke my elbow if you remember and how they found out that my heart was a bit dicky. Now, I'm not saying it is anything serious, but you must get the information that this has happened onto your medical records at least. It'll always help with future DLA/IB claims etc, so even if only for that reason.

pcl/tiger Weff is toooo hard! I ended up cheating and looking up the answers *g*
I'll pass on all good wishes etc to s/e and see if we can persuade her to come back, even if only for the odd winge *g*.

lw I've only ever tasted elderflower wine (home made) once and it was lush!! Hope it ends up worth the effort. Hope you take the weekend to chill and recover.

sue Glad your Dad is doing OK and I'll keep fingers crossed for him for next week. Will put together a pack of books for you and get them off on Friday.

unity/bz did your parcels arrive? Everything else I sent at the same time seems to have got there, so just hope they arrived safely too.

Talking of taking the weekend to chill and recover - BZ you are to do precisely that. Right after either you or DF ring the Doctor re getting yourself checked.

I hear Mr LW pulling into the carport, so I'm offski now.

Have a good weekend all.

I didn't try the game, but did try to thank Tiger's post and then a weird message came up and I couldn't work out what I'd done wrong, before realising it was down...:rolleyes:

I did think about that Ms Axe...and shall ensure I see GP next week and if I still feel weird later/tomorrow I'll give the emergency docs a call - promise.:A I do get heart palpitations but not sure if it's part of the ME/Fibro (I have seen it on a symptom list somewhere) or the sideeffects of Lyrica...

I might have to seek out this Weff business....I'm not really one for riddles, but I'm intrigued now!

Yes please.

Last time I had anything Elderflowerberry-ish, I was....under the influence (let's say ) and could not work out whether it was elderflowerberry, elderberryflower, berryflowderelly...you get the point

Sorry Auntie Axe, I'm not sure, I've not been downstairs yet since the incident so not checked the post. I'll let you know when I get it though

Yes miss I do intend to do nothing. Of course, the GPs is now closed...so I'll have to rest before I ring him I'm afraid...;)
