Oh yes, it backs onto greenbelt with mature trees and farmlandThat's part of the attraction! We had a tree creeper here yesterday :j and we saw a green woodpecker on the verge 100 yards from our house
(please let them come and visit our lawn!)
I have got up early to do some paperwork which has to go in the post today. Will take yesterday's washing x4 (dried outside) upstairs when I go for my shower and do a quick tidy round later. Having just finished my early morning :coffee: I must now get on with the urgent stuff. DH has his regular weekly blood test this morning but fortunately doesn't need me to hold his hand for that!
Hope everyone has a good day. Thinking especially of all of you who are returning to work and/or sending children back to school - I remember what a shock it is to the senses!!!0 -
Morning all
Thanks for the new thread Natty. Boys back at school tomorrow so need to make sure they have everything today (I know they don't right now).
Ionafan, I have everything crossed for you
Froddy enjoy your last day, summer term and not too long until half term

I hope it goes your way Ionafan.
The sun is shining. DD2 wants to wear a summer dress. The jury is still out on that one.
I'm working today and on a cake course tonight. I need to go to MR T. I will try to get some flying accomplished after school.
Good week vibes for everyone.0 -
Thanks to Dusty and Natty for the threads. I'm in for this week.
Dusty Hope you take it easy
Ionafan spoons and lots of luck heading your way.
Froddington I love my steam cleaner. Personally it makes cleaning a lot easier. Also I don't need to worry that fumes/chemicals will set my asthma off.
