    Evening everyone

    Rain all morning and lovely this afternoon. Cleaned shower room and bathroom. Wm on and hung out this afternoon, now dry. Tidied a bit of garden and had a trip to garden centre. Also went to gym. Haven't been for as couple of weeks due to all the recent events, managed to do 5km in 35 mins, 6 months ago I couldn't run for more than a couple of minutes. I will probably suffer tomorrow as I pushed myself really hard.

    Hester thanks for asking dgs is well, weighs 7lb 10oz now, dd managing to feed him, I've nicknamed her Daisy.

    Re my stepdad my dm went to drs with him. He passed the memory test they did, even after the blackout he has refused to be referred for any further tests. My dm is worried and keeps walking up during the night, listening for him getting up. I think he is either scared or in denial not sure which.

    Hugs to anyone that wants/needs want. Take care and enjoy the rest of your evening.

    Thanks...the new one seems to have white flowers whilst the well established one had no buds. Think it needs cut back for next year. The glory of the garden is a black elder with the most gorgeous pink flowers. We've never had a garden before so it's all new and wonderful for us.

    Wait until it has finished flowering then cut it back - it will flower on new stems ;)
