    Glad that we are still wearing masks as I fell a few months ago & still have a big mark on my face.

    What a shame about the baby blanket. It’s a lovely blanket too, you are very talented. My dentist is doing check ups but not Mr SA’s.

    I'm going to have to speak to my dentist, they keep saying we'll let you know when we are doing appointments.  BUT, they are an NHS dentist & their t&cs are that you get knocked off their NHS list if you miss more than one check up.  I am about to miss my third.  I do hope they haven't done this deliberately.  If they do knock me off I will be finding another dentist!

    I’ve collected my teeth. I can’t get them in.....😲😲😲. The repair is seamless and if you didn’t know where they’d broken you wouldn’t know. I haven’t had them in my mouth for best part of 2 weeks and my other teeth must have relaxed a little. So I’m trying to get them in little by little and leaving them a minute or so more each time. I’m hoping this’ll do the trick.
    We’ve  just taken some bits we’d bought when we were doing the kitchen back to IKEA. £40 back in our bank.....one time we’d have left them at the back of the cupboard. We didn’t go into the shop - just the returns then we went looking at plant pots in the garden centre next door. Nothing jumped out and said wow. We came home and I’m totally done in. I’m getting mightily fed up of feeling so tired. My get up and go has well and truly gone.

    Lovely to hear from you SG 2. Missed you. We’ve said we’re leaving RHS Bridgewater until next year....but it’s on out to do list. Once the RHS gardens are fully open and the garden shows are running again we will get a year’s membership as they give discount to the shows....not worth it this year if half the things aren’t running.
    I've just been outside sorting some pots out. I need a few more so after the garden centre being rubbish I might just nip to Morrisons to get some as currently the old compost is festooned all over my front.....right in front of the doorstep 😲 I fill the bottom of pots and top up with new stuff. I’m rather pleased as a couple of weeks ago when I visited my brother he gave me some plant pots somebody had given him and he didn’t want. They were full of some half dead bushes and a couple of raspberry plants. They are 3 pots in 1 shaped like a clover. Anyway I’ve washed them out. Got rid of all the half dead plants and stacked them and filled with some strawberry plants from a different tub of mine and put the surviving raspberry plant at the top. Jobs a guddun....hopefully they’ll survive. Not sure where I’m going to put it yet 😊

    I’ve just been very silly and been filling pots with compost in the front......I just tipped the old ones out in front of the door steps, (they were really light as they were bone dry) so I could sit on the steps whilst doing them.....trouble was I had to carry on so we could get to the step. Thoroughly enjoyed myself but totally done in now. It was a couple of sessions each less than an hour and I got dh to do lifting for me. Night night I’m off for a bath and bed 😏
