    Good morning.

    A lovely sunny morning here. I dont think we have been affected by ash. Ive been looking at the map they have on the met office of where it is. It is quiet without any aircraft. Besides commercial aircraft we get military aircraft too and helicoptors. The air ambulances have been grounded too. Off to do some shopping then go and see mum. This afternoon I have a reflexology appointment. If I have time I want to get some rosemary for the garden.

    Mumof5. Thinking of you and thats a lovely way of remembering your nan.
    Toots. DB and SIL are feeling a bit better. Hope they are well enough to come down next week.

    Hugs for everyone specially Toots, Lady L and Diva.

    HHC at 9 anyone?
    re the sky man - I think it would have been a waste of time - I think he 'catches the other bus'
    Thanks Grateful for the phrase!


    Its a pleasure! And I think its a bloke who is drunk or stoned. Probably would get on great with the sky man

    eta just had a look at the whole thread, sorry, Valli I didn't mean it! And that post is just completely random.
    Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x

    Morning all

    Lovely day here.

    Off out in a bit to get some replacement panes for playhouse and coldframe and stock up on pens for the return to school.

    Everybody will be out from 2:30 today so planning some nice R&R in the garden then.

    Many happy belated birthday wishes to everyone i've missed.:bdaycake::bdaycake::bdaycake:

    Right i best get a move on.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
