    Hi MWC - that list looks :eek: to me :rotfl:

    Just stopped by to say that I have finally got my hands on a copy of Last Bus to Coffeeville. About half way through and really enjoying it. I wasn't sure for the first few pages but stuck with it and quickly changed my mind. Thanks for the recommendation :beer:
  • Glad you're enjoying it BW :)

    Miss LRH2 is still doing the deed so I'm having an unscheduled tea break rather than doing another job on the list!

    Your garden and hens look amazing! Wow!
    Our 2 hens finally arrived last night, and we have an egg already. Fingers crossed it's not just beginners luck! Thanks for all the help!

    The little madam was just keeping them warm :naughty:

    Coop cleaned - I'll reassemble it shortly - and then I think I'll make a start on the windows...

  • Brilliant weight loss and is a testament to the effort you've put in :T

    Your list of jobs has left me feeling like a lazy old moo :)

    You'll sleep like a log after all that activity.

    Best wishes Tilly x x x

    Thanks Tilly

    Don't feel too lazy - I haven't finished the list of chores yet!

    Fingers crossed I sleep well tonight - I put the thicker duvet on yesterday and then didn't sleep very well because I was too hot...

    It is there Ed along with a variety of other weeds!

    I used a seaweed-based lawn treatment earlier in the year but I'm not sure if it was that or the miserable summer that is making it look lush :)
