    Soappie - never doubted you at all - I am just stunned at the difference in the soil after ONE growing season!

    and thanks for the other thing;) (I'm not sure what chard-the-vegetable is, you see!)
    Carol Klein seems to treat it like spinach...well the leaves, while the stems are more substantial.

    Evening all,

    Been at inlaws all afternoon (roast beef and Yorkshire puds if anyone's interested) - took DD coat she has grown out of (is fab condition and beautiful so MIL will take to hospice sale as they will get a few quid more than a regular charity shop) and came home with two others plus a pair of cords for me (next size down :T) that she got for just 20p!!! And, my towels and swimmies from hols have been washed and dried :A

    But this afternoon they got a phonecall, seems DHs cousin has the big C :( made worse that she is a transplant patient (has CF) and other complications including diabetes. This particular cousin is the only surviving of three children (she is in her 30s now) its all just so pants, and brings back what we were dealing with just 2 short years ago :(

    Kids are playing up something rotten. Back to daycare tomorrow. DS has a school club trip and DD in nursery. Maybe my tolerance has run out after 20 days of solid "I want I want" and whinging. I can't even say for sure if their behaviour has got worse or my dealing with it has. Pfft.

    Mount ironmore is still here. So I suppose I'll make a start. Might put a DVD on and do it in LR...

    Away with the fairies :beer:
