    Persisting down here but musn't complain we are in desperate need of the rain

    In agony again :( so I took a couple of tramadol and went back to bed until 11am this morning.

    Went and looked in the garden an hour ago and got 6 courgettes off (with another 8 growing happily) also I have sliced and frozen them:)

    Afternoon all

    Not read thread yet so (((hugs))) if needed to all.

    :j:j:jWe finally have recycling bins at my flats :j:j:j It's such a sad thing to be excited about, but the whole of the county bar us are on the recycle scheme, but because we have industrial bins we couldn't be on it as everything goes in the bins, but we now have separate ones for paper, glass and cans! Whoop! It will save me having to hoard it in my spare room. I'll still have to keep plastic and cardboard but it's a step in the right direction.

    Hectic day at work, kids were full of mischievious beans :rotfl:. I'm just waiting for the letting agent to come inspect my flat. Flat is spotless :D, she is running a little late but had the courtesy to ring me to let me know. After she has been I'm going to pop to Tesco (via the new recycle bins! :rotfl:) to get a few bits and then think of what to have for tea.

    Have a good evening all

    EDIT - BB - sorry to hear that (((hug))) just for you

    Supper is on, OH's dizzy lasted longer than usual so instead of going out my birthday tea will be scotch pie mash and beans....delightful......still I might get taken out at the weekend.

    I am hoping that the new medication does him some good, I am not convinced though now I know what it is..........Its rained all afternoon, the towels I put on the line were wetter than when I put them out, so have just spun them, the sun is shining now, too late, I will put them on the clothes horse and dry them in the guest room, if I can get the clothes airer up in there. The forecast is for rain for the rest of the week......so no more washing.

    I am shattered after yesterday, but glad that the old woodstove is out, looking forward to the new one gong in.........
