    The pole is still on the 'urgent,' list, Better Days. :mad:
    After this morning's e-mail it may well have gone on the 'very urgent' list,:o but that still gives me no clue as to when exactly it's due to happen.

    Some of you may remember that I visit a certain garden near here, where seeds often fall from plants and lodge in my clothing. Last year, some Morning Glory had the good fortune to do this, and now I have one climbing through my cucumbers:

    Today's poultry market was a pretty small one, because the kids are back at school. ;)

    That is the most stunning morning glory I have seen.

    That sounds rather dodgy. Hmm. Try again.

    That's a rather splendid ipomoea davesnave

    Well, big dog went to the vet today. She's not young. Looks like she's entering the phase we were in for ages with old girl horse. :(. She's on new pain killers and diazepam....much more of this sick critter business she can keep the painkillers........

    CTC, I agree with alf, blue lips are a warning sign and should be investigated without delay.

    I wasn't out celebrating, I was out choosing tiles for my new bathroom to be :j:j:j

    LIR So Sorry to hear Big Dog is struggling, you know I have a real soft spot for her breed.

    CTC Glad the funeral went as well as it could go, I am sure his family found it a great comfort having you all there. Please go and get yourself checked, you are valued by so many and you need to keep yourself safe and healthy.

    Dave Seeds seem to stick to you often :rotfl:

    Rozee :j for renovations being underway

    Alfie :mad: on your behalf!

    Choille That took me a minute or two to get :rotfl:

    BetterDays Not long till you move :D

    New bathroom Rummer - how exciting, almost as exciting as a baby, but not - obviously.

    I'm off to bath land tomorrow!

    The gable facing the road is done - fasias, overhang - looks ace. It rained all day that Highland mizzle that gets inside your clothes. Fine rain, but wet - wettest rain there is - don't you know!

    Well I spent two hours attempting to switch my current a/c to the Halifax as you get £100, but there's no branches in Scotland. I didn't half have a CHAT with their call centre when they said I couldn't. I mean - well why advertise on Scottish telly then? So, I think I may get one as I talked about them having to put on their website that you couldn't have a Halifax a/c if you lived in Scotland, and it all sounded rather rascist of them............

    I'll do owt for £100 -well not quite anything................

    Choille Rumlets arrival is ages away so I am super excited about having a real grown ups bathroom :rotfl:

    We stretched ourselves to buy this house as we know that, lottery win aside, it would be our forever home. However we have had to do wee bits as and when we have had the pennies and almost all of it has been done by ourselves.

    So having a real bathroom tiled from top to bottom by someone else will be fabulous :j especially with rumlet coming ;)
