greent's mfw journey

Best of luck with the aches and pains - the stuff that isn't life threatening is often life limiting - definitely sounds like things a physio can help

I know what you mean with picking them small. I found a two day old "marrow" courgette yesterday. The green ones are growing off two or three growing points on one plant (never had that before), but we did stick a large bag of farmyard manure on each bed too, so that might be why. Tromboncino are fun too

greent

Yep, Sl - I suspect the manure will have helped

Forgot to say that we trotted out to Blenheim Palace on Friday - just DH, myself and DD. Weather was fine and there was the added bonus of a food festival in the grounds We upgraded our passes at no cost to a 12month pass, so we shall be returning! It's just over an hour from here, so not too bad  

Took DD to the train station this morning and then DS1 and I exchanged his jeans at HnM and dropped off a bag of old clothes for recycling and got a £5 voucher in exchange. Also nipped into Next to return some uniform and sent DS1 into Icyland whilst I did that to pick up a couple of items. Then on the way home we posted a flebay sale and a RM survey item This afternoon I went to Sainz and shopped N3ctar offers and also bought a couple of tops for work and then nippd to the MnS Outlet and bought a pair of boots, a necklace, 2 pairs of trousers and 3 tops for me - and boxers for DH and Ds2 and Ds3. Not sure if I'm keeping all of mine- need a trying on session later. I hate clothes shopping!! Thankfully as it was Sainz and mns outlet prices it is all reasonably priced:)

I don't know how you pack so much into your days. I make a cup of tea and suddenly half the day gone!

Glad you enjoyed Blenheim, I've heard many lovely things about it but haven't been.

Ditto!  It's a mystery (with apologies to Shakespeare In Love )

Blenheim is amazing, been there a few times as I went to poly round there.  

greent

Yep - thoroughly enjoyed Blenheim!

Today is our 26th wedding anniversary, so I made DH take the day off work as I booked lunch out (we went out for dinner last night with friends as it was one of theirs birthday). DH had ordered a cake, which was delivered yesterday 😋🎂 We went our late morning (leaving all children at home...) - he wanted to go to the local Outlet centre - he got nothing but I bought a supremely comfy pair of burgundy loafer type shoes and a black top Then we went for lunch in a cute place in a little local village (was delicious!) and bumped into my cousin on our way home, so went back to her house for a cup of tea - and her mum and dad alao joined us. All in all a lovely and relaxed few hours!

Happy anniversary! Sounds like you had a lovely time and I'm so happy for you.
