Finally catching my breath after a mad week.

DH is late picking me up. Nothing changes.

Make up to 2 litres with water.It stinks to high heaven but the midges and horseflies hate it! On really bad days I just stick in extra garlic.

Thanks Watty.

Sounds like a significant improvement re the chalk face. Very well done. They are cheeky coming at this time of year.

Thanks Squirrel. I knew you would get that. I durstn't be more obvious.
It was cheeky but it felt like a dialogue this time.
I got a good (they don't tell you but make it clear IYSWIM). So praise God for that.

Up and at em.
I have a million salads to make, and a curry. All very non MSE, though I guess we could we eating out which would cost more.
