Morning campers, not as early as yesterday I'm afraid. I'm not firing on all cylinders yet..lol. Although some nice friend decided to ring me at 7.30am - who in their right mind would ring someone at 7.30am..ugh it's the middle of the night for some people..:rotfl:

I told you it would rain after I had collected all my grey water and drowned everything in the garden, and it did!!! I was not a happy bunny as I spent a good hour in the garden tooing and froing with my watering can and practically drowning everything so that it got a good soaking.. and what did it do? Yep it rained about half an hour after I had done it!!!!!!!!! Still it was nice to see even if it was for only half an hour.. But D and the dogs weren't happy as they were on their evening walk and came back a bit wet :rotfl:

Think I'm too late for the birds this morning - they all seem to have eaten their breakfast and scarpered. The only ones around are the two newly wedded robins Oooh just saw Asbo robin, he must be back ready to claim his territory from his offspring..lol Oh gawd just looked out the french doors and it's nursery time in the garden - 6 baby starlings are sitting in strategic places waiting for their food. Bless them..:D

Didn't get much done after yesterdays 12 noon HHC, I ended up going to friends earlier and stayed their till gone 5pm..ugh!!! But I did do a few bits when I got back.

Have to stay around today for parcelforce as they are delivering my huge bag of cat litter and various big bags and tubs of bird food. Was much cheaper to order humungous bags and tubs of birdy food rather than buy small bags when I had run out.

Also got my veg box coming but he isn't arriving till about 5ish, probably when DH gets home from visiting his client in Bristol. Oh how I love it when he is out of the office and galavanting round the country during the day NOT!!! It means he ends up coming home way too early for me..:rotfl: And it throws me all out...:rotfl:

Hope today goes okay Greenbee xx Oooh didn't realise you and OH had got back together again.. Did he finally sort his priorities out?
Hmm not sure where Vanilla has gone to, she hasn't replied to a PM sent last week either. I hope everything is okay at home.

Hope everyone in Scotland doesn't get this volcanic ash they keep threatening for you. Although it hadn't appeared when I heard the radio news earlier. Probably be a damp squib as is normally is when the newspapers etc get a bee in their bonnets..lol

Hugs and spoons to everyone, especially LL, Toots and Wolfie

I dont know about the volcanic ash, but we just had a horrendous hail storm :eek: Now it is beautiful and sunny. Apparently the ash is due at 1pm. My trees survived, but some of my glass panes didnt. Time for me to head off and sign on.

Laters lovelies :wave:
