PP/Sockdrawer I was going to ask about the salami too? I made sausage meat but haven't ordered any skins yet. Busy couple of weeks and I haven't done anything much outside work.

Lots to do today, including a trip to BnQ. Need to push on with finishing the new bedroom as it is going to be in use shortly - it has lights and power, but the floor is currently on two levels with an inch ledge half way accross the room. Fireplace nees airbricking and plastering. Also need to think about practicalities like carpet and furniture.

My car is back, and the gears are a joy to use :j. It is a Landrover Defender, and it has always been a heavy/hard gear change so this is wonderful.

Trying to decide about Christmas cake or not. Have ingredients, but there is usually only me who eats it.

Morning all,

Spent last night comforting a terrified Ebony, and didn't see a single firework at our local display. Also, the friend who I'd not seen for ages, was so tired after the fireworks that she went straight home as she has a 2 hour drive back to work today, so I didn't get to see her either which was a shame. Still, she's off on leave in a couple of weeks, so hopefully I'll be able to catch up with her when she's back, as her parents only live in the next village.

Realised today that I've got over 3/4 of a tank left of petrol, and I don't want to lose it all on Wednesday when I get my new car, so I'm going to use some of it up going to Gunwharf today. If you're around Froddy, maybe you'd like to meet up? I've asked LadyL, but so far she hasn't received the message, so not sure if she'll be with me or not. Will send you a text in a minute in case you don't read this in time. Anybody else who's in the area today and would like to meet up there, send me a PM.

Just heard back from someone on freecycle who lives in my village, and she's got lots of windfall eating apples to give away, so hopefully I'm going to pick some up this afternoon and I'll be able to make a crumble out of them (makes mental note to pick up a couple of bramleys too on way home).

Moon has cleaned the hob for me at my request, so that's one nasty job that I no longer have to do. He's off shooting in a minute, so I thought I'd have a bit of me-time, as he's not too keen on shopping.

Better go and get myself dressed now.

Happy flying everyone,

Good morning everyone, the sun is shining here today but it has rained quite a lot earlier so everything is very wet still. I haven't been outside yet so I don't know how cold it is.

I get up most mornings at about 6.15am, always have done, I am hopeless late at night though! I don't do lie ins either very well.

Might follow penpen out side and clean up some leaves, but it looks cold out there!!! spose I could put in thick coat on.

I'm up at 6:30am, I don't do lie ins either. However I tend to be a bit idle when I get up and just sit with a cuppa and a book/computer or something. I'm really impressed that you can get going first thing.:T

Serena I did get to garden yesterday but it was weeding out forgetmeknots and wild violets which have invaded beyond belief and are tiresome and fiddly to remove so not 'nice' gardening. I hope DH sorts out the bed problem, I feel your disappointment.

just dashed to argos for my free game (coupon in the express) in a light jacket, summer skirt, sandals and WAS STILL HOT - love being menopausal (not!)

got game though!

3 (small) lots of washing outside
DD told I expect her to be civil to my friends (ie the LSB) - don't expect her to like him as such but she has been brought upto be good mannered. So I expect her to be good mannered.

Loads to do but sunshine always lift my mood so I shall crack on!
