    morning Granny, im sure once natty has had time to start the thread a link will be posted in here.

    hope everyone is well
    had a long weekend off - we spent two days of it gardening and yesterday DD2 and fella were round for day.

    garden looking much better loads done and lots of clutter cleared
    made a boxed in edge for the bed at the bottom of garden from scaffold planks.
    emptied compost bin and dug it all the new bed, lawn has been cut, 3 annoying saplings that self seeded and we kept cutting back have now been dug out so shouldnt bother us again. set of non working solar lights, a broken patio chair and 3 big broken planters have been binned, other solar stick lights have been put in a sunny border t see if they will hold a charge if not they'll be binned and new ones got. 6 bags of weeds cutting etc are on the front awaiting collection and DH stained the plank edges once they were finished.
    have planted a load of stuff from the broken tubs into the new bed on a its got two chances school of gardening principle.
    relaid some uneven slabs (and upset a few ants nests!)
    donated a potted chestnut tree to the local school and a couple of rooted flowering plants that had just got too big for our beds and needed splitting.
    patio tablre and brolly is back up from its winter quaters at the bottom of the garden and the washing line is in its summer position on the lawn instead of the patio.

    just cut a skirt out to test the fit on a pattern i want to make should hopefully be able to make a start on that and S&S the kitchen and bathroom before work, avon lady has been with more bubble bath, and company we want a price off for sofitts fascias etc has rung to confirm appt

    have a funeral to go to this afternoon so wont be about later.
