    Oh what beautiful weather we're having.:j I've spent much of the last week sorting out the garden, and I'm pleased with my pruning, weeding and tidying.

    And at the end of this week, a quarter of the year is over, and we've got 2 great quarters to follow, with lower heating bills and hopefully, lots of sunny days ahead.:)

    Hope everyone is well.

  • Ohhhh meant to say ... budget's gone to pot a bit!

    Have done my Apr - June stock up already as I was in town where the shops were today (60 mile round trip) so seemed silly not to do it & then have to waste fuel going back in a few days...... spreadsheet looking a bit unhealthy!

    Ooh rising so exciting!

    I am feeling so so cross with the rudeness of free cyclers!!!
    Here dead we lie because we did not choose
    To live and shame the land from which we sprung.
    Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,
    But young men think it is,
    And we were young.
