My DS claims to hate lots of things that I always stick in meatballs anyway, he was helping me make them one night though and seemed surprised when he realised there was parmesan and onion in there! still ate them though so all good.

You've inspired me - I'm seriously thinking about growing some fruit/veg. Not that I've actually bought anything yet but in my defence it was a bit sleaty earlier..

Hurrah - welcome to the flowery side - anything I can do to help - other than whizz down and plant things for you - then please do let me indulge in all my useless info

And you've got ages yet - so no panic x

Its currently SNOWING here - someone is taking the PLeeeeeeeep

hi, we've had horrid rain and hailstones. yuck, had a wander round homebase today and there were loads of grow your own veges. I stood there looking and trying to plan and gave up and went to tesco. Have got some onions that are starting to sprout so any advice on what to do with them? will they grow in a container??

Well - I have a phobia about soggy stuff and beans touching any kind of egg or any tomato/egg combo - bluegh - cake (shudders) I hate the texture of it so I can't dont and wouldnt be paid to eat it and of course any type of devils spawn dried fruit - bleugh to the billion yuk yuk yuk - I hate dried fruit almost as much as I hate cake - erghghghghgh - so I can't really pass any comment on other folks little quirks - I embrace them I think its what makes us all unique..............

Hope you get chance to do the greenhose stuff today - xx

Hi BOB just back in been out at a meeting on renewable energy - go me on a saturday night eh??

boredofbeingathome

I am not bad, have had a couple of glasses of red Vino, thankyou pressie from neighbour for looking after his cats.

But am wide awake now and have to get up early tomorrow. Always the way isn't it?

Renewable energy meeting sounds good. I would love to have an eco house one day, all underground like a hobbit. I am about the right height so would suit me..and no my feet aren't hairy, however i am wearing stripey socks.

We can be hobbit chums together and i will toss cake and chocolate out of my window into your larder

You can return the favour by throwing beetroot into my larder

And we can all have the windows open for all the spuds LT doesnt want.

I have full knee length purple flowery socks on They don't go with anythign else but hey ho - I live alone (except DD, her two pals, my brother and the lodger)

:D:D
Oh I have news - I ironed a pair of trousers last night

Sorry that other folks have to iron for work - but for me it was a novel experience - (linen trousers) although I have to say once they are ironed and sat on you couldn't tell they were ironed at all - pah.

doing some wrok after this I promise

Lemon_Tree

you poor thing having to iron, that's serious torture and something i only do on pain of death.
lovely day here at the moment, got yesterdays airer washing outside, and when i get dressed i'll be out in the greenhouse.
I'm carless for the first time in forever, OH took it to work so i didn't have to take him for 8am or 7am as it really is (i hate the clocks changing!) guess that means i've got lots of cleaning and tidying up to do as well.
