We must be almost job twins - I went to uni when I was a young whippersnapper and did Accounting (In Dundee)

Then I defected to the scottish islands married a farmer and then didn't quite go back.......

you don't be me - honestly I am a bit um disfunctional:rotfl: is probably a nice word for it!!

Alcohol wise I am so dehydrated at the moment - is that normal - I wake up really needing ot drink lots of water and feel constantly thirsty. Been at least a week or so since I had any alcohol - so that doesnt make sense.

Morning all.

Fay and 40SM, are you sure you're not the same person, each logging in and out talking to each other on the internet??

Morning Fay :wave:

Having second thoughts about the gardening already, having trouble breathing this morning with this broncule thingy and not taking the anti-b's. The ventolin inhaler is great but can only take it 4 times a day. Maybe I shouldn't do too much today? So frustrating, I've had this for 2 weeks now :mad:

Jo wish I coudl pop down and do it for you (being a gardener that is) - tis my job!! Don't do anything too much fi you are feeling carp maybe just get the bits you need to 'start'?

Well it was pre-PhD - hope it goes OK.......hands Jo some thick glvoes and a pair of very sharp secateurs

Oh BTW lidls have really good sharp secateurs for £1 and lots of other things - do you have one near you save you a fortune.??

I start a wee garden fire to get rid of my rubbish - but I think you are in the town aren't you and I am a pyromaniac - so its probably best disposed of a bit more sensibly. I happily spend hours outside making wee fires (in a constructive way honest guv)

Thanks arsonist Fay, I'm borrowing the neighbours tools, I think she was more than happy to lend them to me as my garden is taking over hers (and most of the local area ).

I think the bagging up will be too much for me today, I'll see, think I'll just go out and cut stuff, I love cutting stuff. Me and you would make a great team, I love nothing better than sawing and secateuring everything in sight but hate clearing it up, you could just set fire to it!!

We have had a fire out there on occassions, but I need help with that one otherwise an entire county might disappear from South East England :rotfl:

Didn't know wee was flammable


I shall be out in the garden myself today doing much the same as you, jo.... apart from one little corner for the veg, the rest is jungle.... and we have a mahoosive garden (for London, anyway). Should be planting sweetcorn and earthing up spuds and..... I'll take this to the greenfingered board, shall I?

Not AF last night, so still on 3.....

Have a good weekend, all :wave:
