Hi All - sorry, I wasn't informed about new messages (again).
I've been busy de-winterising the garden and have stained the decking (couldn't help it) and wil remove all weeds tomorrow prior to getting a delivery of pebbles, compost, hanging !!!!!!!s and a few trays and pots of flowers. Also have world's largest parasol and a chichy sun lounger (£25 Tesco, instead of £130 in garden centre). So that's summer taken care of right there.
Feeling good most of the time (oh Prozac!).
I hope everyone's feeling a bit happier now the sun's out occasionally?

Well done you. Exhausted just listening. I haven't stained the balcony yet but I do have an interview tomorrow so shall focus on that.
I love Prozac, tis marvellous, however it did make me more honest than I am usually. :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
So not amazingly helpful on that front.
Need to check weather forecast for tomorrow (Thanks for reminder Mike)

As we all know, most jobs are just advertised because they legally have to be. But if it's the right thing for you, they'll offer it to you. Good luck, and enjoy the experience.0 -
Mike, did you mention you have summer down there? If I start walking now, do you think I could get to you before it finishes?
I bet the garden is looking good, all spruced up and with proper garden furniture and plants and all. Ours is very... green. That's about all I can say for it right now. I really must do something with it.
Butti, all the best for the interview! Let us know how it goes.Miggy

Two hot days and a thunderstorm = summer. They have just delivered a pile of gardeny stuff and I'm going to hide under the duvet until it goes away.
Use the fitness technique described a couple of pages back, and walk 15 miles a day. I'll see you in August.

LOL, that's assuming I can keep going in the right direction.
If you hide under the duvet long enough you will probably find your garden infested with mobsters.
P.S. What are hot days?Miggy

I might have a balcony soon as well...chasing a house exchange north of me. Near the river (shame you need a £25 fishing permit to fish)...only down side is docs (could be a hassle) and I can't risk changing consultants as mine is fab....
Hope everyone is enjoying the sun
Mike get going on that decking and shift those moobs
