Lovely day here so we went up to the wood yard to look at some full size gates for the side of the house.
The one that I like is £115 but it is really solid, four times the thickness of a Wickes one and hopefully it will last for many years, so I need to save a bit more dosh, because I want the bathroom done first.

DH thinks that he has a kidney stone on the move ouchins, so he has taken a few co-codamol and is having a nap before going back to work.

I have been washing flower pots since we got back. It is a pain having to tape gloves to my op hand to keep it clean though so that I can carry on re-potting seedlings and start some new batches of veggies.

Congratulations to Rachel and Gonzo

Off to wash more pots so BFN x

All quiet in here today so I thought I should post even though there's not a lot of OS happening in this household. 😱

Had a lovely and challenging drive up north today which I won't be doing again. Because I had to go to Doune (outside Callander) I took the alternative route north and was enjoying it all the way to Crianlarich - and then had a 21 mile section down a single track B road along Loch Awe. Spectacular scenery but OMG what a nightmare. Got here a little frazzled and lots of diesel lighter. Went straight for a Chinese takeaway and a bottle of wine out the fridge.

Just been watching the D day shows and then GBM from St Paul's. My dear dad was there on D day +6 as a Royal Engineer. He'd be 99 if still alive.

Anyway, got series three of a Dexter to watch this weekend. A new fire surround to agree with the carpenter and brass doorknobs to fit. Found a great supply of seasoned beech wood locally too so need to collect some and fork out some dosh. See...not much OS, there's always next week.

Might be a bit late today but I still offer my good vibrations to everyone.

Evening all,

Late one from me, had a busy day today. Up early with dh and a quick shower and breakfast then had quite a few errands to run.
First paid in at the bank, and posted a card at the post office.
Then did the shopping, including a trip to home bargains for toiletries, I find them much cheaper there, Aldi for the food shop, Tesco for the bits I can't get at Aldi then a flying visit to Asda Living to try on bras. Nothing felt right so gave it up as a bad job.
Home to put the shopping away and hang out the washing, then a quick lunch and off to pick up DGS who is just back from his hols in Spain.
Brought him home and gave him a snack and then sat with my throbbing leg up until I went to pick up dd from the station.
By this time dh and ds3 were back and it was time to organise tea.
I've just sat down, I'm shattered. I must deserve a Cinzano and lemonade after that lot.
Mrs Lurchwalker glad you enjoyed your visit with the baby xx
Tomorrow after a leisurely start we are going to clear the shed and garage, ready for our visitors.
Have a good evening all x
