Daydream thread... without the rose-tinted specs

One of those green manures is the mustard we used to have here in the thousands. The previous owners planted it and omitted to dig in. :mad:

I reckon the life cycle from germination to seeding is about a month, so you need your wits about you. :eek:

We still have quite a few come up wherever we disturb the ground, but if they get to flower, I take it personally.

Lovely day here so felt guilty enough to drag myself about & potter. Pottering is good when you have a thick cold, makes you feel useful....ish & all that fresh air is better than sneezing & coughing in a van.
Heard what I thought was the pompous neighbour barking away at the top of his voice on the phone - he has one of those walk about ones & uses it outside. He's quite a distance off bit like a Shakesperian actor his voice fair travels.....and grates.

Muttering away to myself about the silly beggar I realised the voice was coming from somewhere down by the Loch. Walked up the croft for a better view & saw that there's a fricking massive warship there! So I mistook a warship for my neighbour!

Living in a house with woodworm ain't that good for you long term either.:D Yes, we don't sleep in treated rooms and do furniture in a barn or room we aren't going to use for a while.



Alfie, you have no idea how lucky we've been changing light bulbs, the foot of the thing we change light bulbs on has been right over a hole!

Choille:eek::eek::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: what the heck was a warship doing by your place... does it happen regular??:D

I can sympathise with you, as I have had this cold thing for what seems like ages, just cant shift it, I feel I want to rip my face off, or hit myself in the face with a baseball bat

It seems to happen about once a year. There's a big naval base a few miles down the road & when they are thinking of invading somewhere they tend to play at games on the Loch. There's been quite a few helipocters about.

There was little mini boats scudding about last year - must have had a whale of a time. .....all at the tax payers expense....not surprised they've flogged off Royal Mail......on the cheap.

Commisserableations on the cold - it's a thick 'un. Almost cracked a rib sneezing & frightened the ole cat - who is stone deaf.

Lol, that's interesting timing with exercises round here ATM too. Was beautiful in the sky last evening, like fireworks.

On the warship, they must of been using a megaphone - it was so loud & clear the plummy tones reverberating off the mountains - surreal.

LIR - they must be gonna bomb some poor country soon...another one.

With you on that one Alfie...

Choille, I am sneezing so hard, I have to clench my whole body just before I sneeze to stop myself from weeing myself:cool::rotfl:

I normally get a 24 hour thing, and then its just the niggley bit, but this is full blown for a few days now... not nice..
