  • Hey up all

    Up and have an early meeting - really full on but fun day yesterday - from which I've scored alot of local food for free :) I love a food profit - as I was volunteering yesterday I think that this is a win win situation.

    KK hug for the back

    Keiss and RT love pink fir apple - a truly gorgeous taste described beautifully by Keiss and very wierd looking which tick the 'unusual and fun to grow box' and quite prolific :)

    Starnac hope the windaes are good.

    I'm off to find a cuppa and get ready the meeting is here and my house is a tip!

    Hope you're all great I'll catch you later................................:) have a great day.

    Tasted the new Highland Park whisky last night 'Thor' - its amazing and a 16 year old - fruity and firey - that was a real treat!

    Pippi - you sound like you've really found a dream job in what you're doing now, you are so uplifted and enthusiastic about what you're doing, it's fabulous to read about :) (oh and free food too, double hoorah!)

    I slept well on my downstairs bed and felt great......until I had to get up and make DD's packed lunch etc. I was even considering going into the office but soon realised that was a bit daft as I can't sit or stand for long without wanting to cry :( So, back to bed and i'm hoping to get out for some acupuncture this afternoon, luckily its the left hand side of my back thats hurting and i have an automatic...but the dr is a friend so if i have to cancel she should be fine about it

    goodness me KK:( Poor thing :( Take care of yourself xx

    And you too Pippi - thought today was your day off work?? What's this early meeting business?? Hmm?? Hope you're looking after yourself!

    (says me, who's currently off sick again after overdoing it...) :o Do as I say, not as I do! :D
  • Oh KK poor you! Keep well lovely.

    Cheery you're off too - oh dear - must pop over fence and catch up

    Hmm, meeting well a cuppa with a fellow blogging colleague who's living in Orkney but its a work meeting re womble website yup. ON the up note, we'll have a giggle and its productive working time :)

    I do indeed love my new womble job and my new foody volunteering. A bit full on yup but these things tend to go in fits and starts don't they?

    We had such a lot of folk last night at our launch of Slow Food up here - which was brilliant - there are perks to it all like lots of yummy food :) for that I'm very happy.

    The polytunnel cover has arrived - won't go on for a bit but I have given it a huge hug and cuddled it - I'll show it round later.

    Eggs to collect looks like the gals have been busy!

    I read about it on the newspaper website :)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Hello everybody,

    Oh dear I am sorry to hear about all the poorlies on here, I hope you'll all be better soon. Hugs to KK, Pippi, Cheery, LT and anyone else who's under the weather. Pippi thank you for the kind thoughts - and for thinking of a parcel, that's very sweet of you but you don't need to you know! Glad the job and volunteering are fun!

    I hope healing vibes will be making their way around soon.
    Very cold here, I'm dressed up like an Eskimo and planning on snuggling into bed very soon! Have just decided to have a bash at selling 'stuff' on ebid for the first time, will see how that goes. Anyone else tried it?

    Hope tomorrow is a better day all round xx

    i've decided that i'm tired of being a grumpy mare, and i've had a lot of practice being grumpy of late, it's just so tiring though. Starnac i'm sure we'd feel much better with a hug from a little baby, hint hint lol
    wish i was closer KK i would definitely come and give you hand if i was.
    KC hope the op goes well and you recover very quickly.

    how exciting Pippi that you have a new member in your household, a polytunnel cover we'll need piccies when it's up, but don't rush it before you're feeling proper and healthy
