Alf, just pmd you, courier is supposed to have tried 3x to deliver and failed. All details and contact info in pm.

Update: Been on to Southampton depot of City Link (01329 843600) and they will try to deliver again tomorrow. Might be worth phoning them to make sure you are around when they call. Their computer records were incomplete, (address label I attached was fine, but driver looks at company's computer sheet which had an incomplete address, so they will amend their computer record)

the local weather says we're n the middle of rain and gales, but its clear and still here, and its cold, but the troughs weren't frozen so not that cold.

Snow n ice??? Snow??

I've just come in from a half day's gardening for a lunch break. I've got a small bowl of strawberries, and a slightly larger one of raspberries, plus a whole host of cherry tomatoes:j. All from outside. There are more strawberries in the greenhouse, but the woodlice seem to be enjoying those ones.

The sun is out, it's 14° outside - nearer 18° in the sunny walled area, and I'm digging the whole of a long border. I can see the sea a hundred metres away, and all is well with the world. Kent, that's the place to be.

Mind you, I'm heading out again quickly, as there's a ruddy great cloud >>> thataways, and my little weather station is flashing all sorts of worried symbols! Get it dug, get inside, and wait for the storm to come!

no eggs found today, and the peacocks haven't come in. They are standing regally on top of the poo mountain in the muck heap. They'll have to roost in another barn tonight, or, go to their own home!
