    Good morning everyone. Washing is on line and blowing niceley, hopefully should dry while I am out today :D

    Must have rained overnight, one of the outside chairs was left uncovered, there's what would be an embarrassing puddle beneath it :o

    Anyone else having trouble inspiring their tomato plants to actually grow :mad: Pumpkins are doing fine but I might have to buy tomato plants this year, give them a little while longer but can't wait too long :(

    Happy birthday Nannylala :bdaycake:

    Morning all.
    I got a lay in today :T no being rudely awoken at 4am (long may it carry on :D )
    Tried to have an NSD yesterday but it went to pot when DD dragged me into Ts for whoopsies, then loaded my basket up with 9p mullers, I'm sure I can cope with losing out on an NSD to 90p :rotfl:
    Off to meet up with a friend of Martins at lunchtime :eek: (eek dead nervous!) I wonder if I should dress as a womble :cool: :rotfl:
    Must have a quick catch up :)
