Good morning, it's a cloudy start here today but warm. Hopefully it will brighten up later.Yesterday i worked in the morning then had family visit in the afternoon. My nephews planted their sunflower seeds so the race to see who grows the biggest has began.I expect the youngest one will phone later asking if his has grown yet..lol.I have my washing on, and off food shopping later. I hope you all have a lucky day.

:hello: Good morning everyone!

Hope you're all well and enjoying the beautiful weather.

It was a tad hot yesterday



so found a nice shady spot in the garden. Managed to
get on with quite a bit but had to keep popping back into
my abode for a zillion drinks of water! It's very
muggy today!

Wishing your DD a very Happy Birthday sheils.



Hope you all have a lovely day and a scrumptious birthday
buffet!

Lol at your nephews indie - fingers 'n paws crossed that
the sunflower do well for them! My kids used to love
growing them! :T

Here's some I grew last year ..... (not!)



:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Your walk sounds delightful theluckofthedraw. I had to
google it too - looks absolutely beautiful and just perfect for
doggie owners. Love the name! :rotfl::rotfl:

Hope everyone has a lovely and lucky day - got to
dash off now and get some provisions in - will catch up with
you all later.

hiya becks, I have squirrel proof cages on all mine,
& put nuts/p-nuts/squirrel food bits in the boxes
for the squirrels we made for them in the trees,
though must admit they do sometimes try to have
a go at the bird feeder stations but the cages are
very good at stopping them,
you can get them from amazon

though I had mine through arkwildlife as they sell squirrel feeders as well

Morning all! :hello:

theluckofthedraw, that sounds like a wonderful walk. My fingers are crossed for your goodie bag. Also that cake you saw in Asda, funny you should mention - I was only thinking the other day how I quite like the sweetie cakes that have the spilling out effect!

The cake for my niece was a success, but took a lot of work. My kitchen and self was a mess of melted chocolate and edible glitter by the end of it... yesterday was beautiful weather but it wasn't the best for trying to delicately position kit kats on the rim of a cake!!! :EasterBun

Hope everybody is having a wonderful day, and hoping it's a lucky one. :T

Amazon also sell wooden squirrel feeders (if you're not able
to make them). Hopefully, if they've got their own stash
they'll leave birdies food alone. Though I agree with f**f,
they will still have a good go at the birdie stuff - cunning
little blighters! Ho hum! Just can't help loving them
though, sooo cheeky!



^^^ I'm guessing it could be placed anywhere (but away
from birdies feeding station!).
