Apple muncher's number crunching

Space for a hot tub?

Dd wants a sizeable trampoline! But the garden has a slope to it, so we'd have to dig it out to flatten it, I think. And it's super chalky so I don't think there's much depth gone able to do that. I suggested parallel bars to hang off. Dd also suggested a tightrope...

Anyhow, a chance to totally change the garden...! Maybe...

Didn't sleep well last night, knowing the alarm was set for 4.40am.  Yes, you read that right! Step dd2 had a big event down in Oz: 3pm their time; 5 am here and 10pm in western Canada. It was being fbooked (haha, autocorrect made that cooked!) live, so that was a first for us. But we didn't need the alarm as dd came through at 4.30 as her music player was glitching (blotching - thanks, autocorrect!)  badly. So I got up and made the coffee. It was over by ~6, or at least we think it was - we had no idea of the schedule, but there was no more live stuff for about 10 mins, so we went back to sleep. Which was a very good idea.

Just about to wake dd. I've done a morning adriene yoga session and 3 HIIT sessions ( 5+5+10 mins). Dh is still snoring and so snuggled down the duvet you'd think he was a mole!

Thanks greent!

Just how do the Barnwood Builders not get splinters? They don't even use gloves most of the time!

I love Barnwood Builders!  Salvage Dawgs is another great one, though the name put me off for years

Their name makes me think of Deputy Dawg, and I can't recall which cartoon that name is from!

The cartoon was called Deputy Dawg

I laughed out loud at this!!! I'm such a twit!!! (Autocorrect had that as a twig...)

Dd wanted waking at 7 this morning, with a snooze and come back at 7.15 if you please. Once she was awake, I went out for a waddle round the block. Go me!

Having weeded the back and tried to remove as much ivy as poss, it was time to stain/treat the back fence before the rasps grow up and prevent me reaching the fence with a paintbrush in hand. So I set a timer for 20 mins, to see how far I got, and was rather impressed with myself! All in all, about 75 mins meant that the inside of the fence got done. So now the rasps can do their thing 😆.

Then it got all dark and we had some flakes of snow. Yay!. Didn't last, as we had sunshine soon after, to dry the fence for me. Another yay!

So I have some bags of garden waste to take to the tip tomorrow, and will also take some wood for my neighbour. We have somehow run out of potatoes and dd is working her way through the balm tissues at a rate of knots, so I'll be popping to liddle for those items.

So far, so good.

Zcut kettlebell workout completed. Garden stuff + neighbour's stuff taken to the tip. Liddle shop done and, of course, I got a veg box!! (6 leeks, celery, tiniest cauli ever, a kiwi, 2 pears, 4 nectarines) And some reductions: sausages and sausage rolls for dh, 2x stir fry packs, a fish pie mix.
