    yet more procrastination, oh dear. Must do a HHC later on.

    I've accepted your friend request... so what happens now :confused:

    Afternoon all

    I wouldn't have noticed the buttons had switched around.

    Having a very productive day washing bed linen and sowing seeds.

    Quote of the day from DS1 looking for a top to wear:

    "I put it in the linen basket last Saturday and it hasn't come through yet" I fell about laughing and said that the washing fairy has been rather busy this week playing the birthday fairy and the funeral fairy.

    Nice to be back!

    I'm just off outside to clean out OH's car, as he's finally completed his list, so must do it before it starts to get cold out there. I'm still all pink from yesterday (sunburn) so my temperature control hasn't got back to normal quite yet.

    Looking forward to a mini meet tomorrow - I'm off to meet LadyLiberty, so I'm really looking forward to that.

    Better stop chatting, and get on with OH's car before he nags me again - he's off out in a couple of hours, so it needs to be done before then.

    Greenbee - we have a similar problem - 3 kayaks, a wind surfer and 6 bikes take up a lot of room. Living in a conservation area means we can't just put another shed up so a bit of an issue.

    Lots done in the garden, shattered now. The first couple of flowers are out on the wisteria - looks like all that rain last summer is going to give us a good show. DH has done a lovely job of welding together some plant supports for the climbing roses.
