    Morning all

    Happy moving day Sally - hope everything goes well. :j

    Tis a gorgeous early autumn day here, lots of dampness in the air first thing and a really fresh feel....the sun is shining but it's by no means hot.

    My tumble drier arrived at 8.30am - can't fault Mr S's delivery - I only ordered on Thursday morning :T (delivery was free too where as Comet wanted to charge £18odd for the privilage) It's all set up and going with some towels to see how quickly it dries and as it's a condenser drier I've been able to "plumb it in" so I don't have to keep emptying the water container.....bonus!

    Off to juice 14 kilos of apples for blackberry and apple wine - Yums!!!

    Kat I was thinking about her too yesterday. Checked her profile and her last post was 10 August. Hope she's ok.

    Morning all ! xx

    Katsu,

    I have emailed Pap-she is ok, her Mom has been poorly but is on the mend now. I know she would love some happy kind thoughts sent her way. We miss you and love you Pap! xxx

    I had a PM from Pap when I signed in yesterday, but it was from about a month ago. Guess I was away quite a long time. :o

    Hope you are okay Pap.

    Morning all. Just peeked round my curtains and saw blue sky for the first time since I've been back from hols. Got a list of things I should be doing today (like unpacking - oosps) but it doesn't match my list of what I'd like to be doing today.

    I suppose I should tackle the yukky jobs first and then enjoy the nice ones, but I've spent so much of my life procrastinating that I think I've got a Masters in it :)

    Still....first things first. Cup of caffeine, porridge and then another cup of caffeine. Then I'll see how I feel.

    I LOVE weekends!!!! (especially long ones).
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    *wonders if the crisps manufacturers idea of 'get the balance right' meant I was supposed to have a bag in each hand?*

    I was getting a bit worried about pap as well. Take care xx

    I now have purple nails :eek:

    The caretaker at work said there was loads of brambles/blackberries (what do you call them?) behind some of our classrooms. I decided to be a bit motivated and popped to work. Looks like the lion's share of the haul would have been about a week ago as there were tonnes but a lot have got a bit yuck/furry. I have picked a takeaway tub full though which is plenty for my needs ;)

    It was nice to get the fresh air for a little bit but I feel a bit tired and scratchy throat now so am back home to chill.

    Hmm.......bramble gin, brandy or vodka........:D
    :D"Stay Wonky":D
