Daily Chat Mon 27th April - My garden needs rain

Morning All :hello:

I'm kinda back!
I still have a slightly dodgy internet/computer situation but it's looking better.
My strawberries & raspberries are desperate for rain! The water barrel is empty so if any of you has any spare rain could you send it my way please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Morning all

    Tis definitely raining here, but my garden appreciates it (as do the shallots and onions that papa planted for me)!

    Not had a brilliant night's sleep - Evie didn't settle until well after 1.30am and then she woke up at 4am for a feed, Wayne changed her nappy at 5am and brought her back for another feed and she's been really grouchy ever since!

    I hope the marathon runners are able to relax any aching muscles today.

    Only just started raining here so I've run out and rescued the towels that were haning on the line from yesterday :o

    Typical though, my grass desperately needs cutting and on my day off it rains :mad:

    Ouch! What's going on here then! I don't know the circumstances, but I sure know the feeling - the web is full of people out to provoke and condemn acting like little internet hardmen taking shots at others for their own amusement.

    You only have to look at something like Youtube (which I think it brilliant!) and regardless of how harmless the video is, there's always a queue of people willing to stick comments on there being right gits. I always have visions of sad old men sat around in the dark in their minging grey y-fronts sitting among some discarded pot noodle tubs thinking of things to type which they think will hurt people and cackling away as they do so.

    I always try and avoid controversy on the web and is just gives some of these people time that they just don't deserve.

    (P.S. Apologies to anyone eating breakfast and put off by thethought of some old git in his y's!)
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!
