    Nope I prioritised.

    All difficult and yet inner beautiful creatures of minxy nature got ignored.

    All paperwork done very early - maximising the cross bit - amazing how much you can get done.

    Walked with el mutts and Mr McF to be - then scooted to 'tother' work.

    Dug up all the vegetables in the lands where I work now have tatties/carrots/onions/broadbeans/tomatoes/marrow/courgettes/spinach and rocket.

    Boxed them in the car

    Was given four trays of tomatoes (peedie trays and so yummy)

    I also picked 32 allium flowers - OK to you and me those are just exactly the same as leeks. :) for floral displays ;) and spoke to two chums - one who's offered the contents of her garden for our lovely buffet. :) and another who's offered some flowers :) nice folks :)

    Harvested a goodly amount of berries and checked out the stash at Mara's working region :)

    Got my own stuff done and harvested my onions.

    Headed back and Mr McF treated me to tea.

    Currently tucked up with a movie.

    All in all a good bonnie day. Can't believe I dug up all the tatties in the universe and the sun shone and I gathered as much free fodder as I could carry.

    How exciting is that. Free food.

    Sorry for the 'veg name dropping'

  • Today of all days I need a list.

    And I'm struggling to know where to start.

    House to clean - that needs a list, our landlady needs to get in a do some work - which will be done when we're away.

    Stuff to organise - wellyfest malarkey and folks to phone.

    Stuff to organise - work/life paperwork

    Stuff to organise - garage/wood

    Stuff to organise - peeps.

    :)

    Machines on with the cover from the sofa in it - I did bundle up poor mutt jnr in the proceedings but you'll be assured he didnt' make it to the machine.

    Washing up to do - that's next while I ponder.

    Ay up Pipster

    You're sounding chipper this morn, despite the long list of domesticals :(

    The choocy is the Fin Carre brand and is in a red foil package. Ours was at the front of the store as you went in. Half price at 17p for 100g bar.

    Glad the pupster was saved from a 'warm wash with extra rinse'. :rotfl:

    Have a good day, weekend and 'countdown' week (?) :D
