Oh dear kerri, hope the cheescake was worth it. Now you gotta run an extra 5 miles to get rid of those extra calories.:rotfl::rotfl:

As its lovely and sunny here again my exercise for the day will be doing the washing, walking round the garden a few times admiring the borders and sitting on my garden bench having a cuppa.:rotfl:

Jeferey's exercise of the day will be watering the plants in the greenhouse using his new irrigation system.:rotfl:

Yup, totally was. Had pole last night and running tomorrow, plus spent the day re-grouting tiles...which actually means we have a row of tiles off the bathroom wall atm and I found out WD40 softens silicone sealant a treat. I'm pooped now.

Glad the new irrigtion system is a success jeferey we had a blanket irrigation system installed here today...clouds :rotfl: beans going well though, tomatoes coming along and some plants in need of a good time shortly.

Was a bit worried that water had been seeping into the wall behind the tiles - adhesive that was there was really wet and just came off some of the tiles. However, looking at it now I think it was most likely seeping in from the shower via the cracked grout. Going to let it all dry out for a bit before doing anything. Think the tiles were originally on a mesh (tiles original to the house) and the back of this has rotted away but I think the walls behind are actually ok. I hope....

Good morning guys

Raining here today, I know the gardens needed it though. Just hope its only for a day or so and we get back to sunshine.

Is your new irrigation system a hosepipe with holes in it here and there :rotfl::rotfl:and attached to an outside tap. ?:rotfl::rotfl:

We have the same problem but the water from the shower has seeped through and damaged the wall so in the next few months we need to have the bathroom sorted, re plastered and re tiled:(. A few tiles were loose and when my ds took them off to see he said the wall behind was wet so he repaired them temporarily but its got to be done properly soon.:(

Rain, rain, rain! At least I got a bit of time in the greenhouse potting on some peppers and making up some hanging baskets. We went out for lunch too with DD2 to local Hungry Horse using £5 of Clubcard vouchers turned into £20. Only paid 52p for food and a bit more for drinks.

He's prob trained the worms to water them with mini watering cans :rotfl:

Wall behind the tiles seems to be drying ok - there's no black mould or anything behind the mesh and adhesive that had gone bleugh so I take that as a good sign. Does look like the mesh had some kind of backing that has also disintegrated but no idea what that was - it was very thin like card. Hoping that the tiles will adhere to the wall ok when it comes to it.

Chucked it down with rain last night but been dry today. Dropped some boxes to a re-homing charity (no not for people to live in ) plates / glasses etc for them. Then out for a run at lunchtime.

Don't know where the days go atm.
