Yesterday was brought to you by gridlock in Glasgow, a loooooooooooooooooong drive down to get the man child.

Thought I was rocking a nice summer glow, manchild thought a bit differently.

Oh wow (he said).

I know (I said) look at me I'm all tanned from the garden.

You tan like a tomato (he said).

:rotfl::eek::rotfl::eek:

You're living the summer in the shed (I said).

Ebay is evil.

I am now bidding on a set of stain glass door panels.

I know I only have myself to blame.

Tee hee pippi!! they sound nice though :j

:rotfl: at you tanning like a tomato no better thing to tan like i'd say

starnac

Hey at least you tan!! I always say DH is so brown because standing next to me and my very white-ness, the sun reflects off me onto him. So he gets double the sun I do :rotfl:

Yay to man child home although boo to traffic and gridlock. Bet you are not used to that are you?

Epic list again today. Good luck getting it done. Although I know you will

Waves to both. Cheery thanks! Starnac I'm using celtic white so the freckle monster is well splattering me at the mo.



Ten mins log chopping done got distracted by brick moving.

Moved the bricks

Painted the wee shelves second coat they need a sand but I'll do that later when I'm properly dirty so I can hop in shower after. Logic to my madness, don't want to be skittering about sandy all day.

In most exciting news I've just got a commission for an 'edible decorative garden' - the folks want many perennial veg too so a wee bit of research required. And, they've asked for a wee 'how to look after it all' session too. Design first, the how to bit later in the year.

I do like a bit of research and I do like a bit of work too .

Contacted me through me facebook wellypage they did. That was a bit unexpected but lovely.

Ponders proper website and getting that up and running (I do have one its just in the 'setting up' stage.

Ponders proper, could I actually, you know, just work from home?

Time for a cuppa.
