    Morning All,

    A late start to the day from me today, have had a nice lie in for a change, unfortunately I don't feel anymore awake for it!! OH is coming home tonight after being at his dad's for a week will be nice to spend the night together, he is going back there tomorrow night tho :(.

    O/S today - I will mow the lawn out the back and front, put the bed stuff in the WM and then out on the line, cook some mushroom burgers, make some vegetable sauce to put in the freezer ready for some lasagne another day, make a couple of chocolate cakes. Need to also take the dogs out but might leave that for OH to get home as I took our two dogs out yesterday in the car and OH's dog would not get out of the car so ended up picking up a 35kg dog wasn't funny!

    Anyway hope everyone has a nice day, weather here is quite cloudy, wish the sun would come out!!

    Afternoon All

    Diva - BIG BIG congrats on your injection :T I have just learnt how to inject myself and I know how totally horrible it is!

    Am a grumpy monkey today! We live in a semi detached house and our neighbours (who we are quite good friends with) decided that when they came home from their night out at half past one they would have a party.........them and about 40 other people! This went on until 4am!! Not impressed!

    Not really much OS going on today doing the rounds with our fathers day things which will take us all day! Thankfully DH has two days off so we will be able to 'chill'

    Hope you all have a fantastic day whatever you are up to

    Linz xx

    People tell me Im going the wrong way..............when its simply a way of my own!

    Happy Fathers Day to all the dads out there.Grey and dull here so not much gardening for usGoing to take my neighbours dog out in a mo,done it once already as she is out all day visiting her poorly son.

    We got the new conservatory rug yesterday,thats down and looks great (DH now agrees it looks much better)I was going to buy some material for more cushions,but remembered a throw I had -right colour so will cut that up later.

    I've just taken a turkey crown out to thaw,for next week.If it gets hotter I can cut it up for salads and sandwiches if it gets too hot for a roast.I've still got a small turkey in the freezer I got reduced after Easter,decided I need to use some stuff up.Tea tonight is pork kebabs and salad,chips if anyone wants them.

    MSD,well done on that first big step.Hugs to you.
    Congrats Twinks son.
    and Crazychik on your run.I did a Midnight memories walk in aid of our local hospice after my Dad died there.It was good fun and raised so much they decided to make it an annual event.

    Hope everyone has a good day.x

    Afternoon all,

    Happy father's day to the dad's out there and hugs to anyone who is missing their dad.

    Easy morning here, have put ham on to cook with cabbage for dinner....it's OH's favourite dinner so thought it only fair to have it for Father's Day....strangely only two of the 'brood' have been on so far to wish him the best, they will all arrive eventually I am sure.

    Overcast and showery here, nothing much I feel like doing in garden, should dead head roses but not just now...maybe later.

    Found Sile kitten in the sink licking the remains of tuna mayonnaise out of the bowl that OH had made it in...cheeky brat! Have never had cats before who got onto worktop/kitchen table, any ideas how to stop them as I can't handle it and they will soon find themselves totally outdoor cats if it doesn't stop!

    Well done on injection Diva...
    Chazychik.....well done on run.
    Congrats to Twink's DS.

    Hugs to all in need or want
