,do you have concrete posts in between your fence panels,my sister has these in her garden and the panel just slides out,I thought it was a brilliant idea when I saw it,I've never seen them anywhere else though only in the Midlands 😊

They exist in Wales and in southern england too.....Much easier to replace panels. I have them in my garden at the back. Neighbour in wales has them in his...His though have the added bonus of being the composite fence panels which will never rot, only fade....

Absolutely unbelievable - someone on a local FB group has suggested we all clap at 3pm tomorrow for children as they have had to give up going out to see their friends. Think I’ll be giving this one a miss. Some of the comments were very entertaining to say the least 🤣 Went down like a lead balloon. Someone has lost the plot 🤣

My DSis said that the mum of one of the children in little nephew's class arranged a Zoom meeting for all the kids so they could meet up with their friends. DSis said it went down very well but as they are only six years old they were all talking and shouting at once and making a great row!😱. Apparently they all thought it was great fun, but DSis said that afterwards she felt like disappearing to her bedroom with a bottle of wine.......🤣🤣🤣🤣

That's hilarious SSG, I can just imagine the chaos 😂.

Only nipped indoors for a few minutes and when I went back outside the neighbour was in our garden 😱 Mr SA had fallen and couldn’t get up. He had a dizzy spell and fell down some steps ☹️ Managed to get him up eventually, he’s shaken and his leg is grazed but otherwise ok. I never knew that the fence panels between ours and next door just slid up. Nice of him to offer help under the circumstances though 👍 This has broken his fairly decent run of not falling unfortunately ☹️ I’ve told him to rest as the last thing he needs right now is a hospital visit. 

Oh no sorry to hear that SA, I hope he's okay.

Apparently in Spain people are renting out their dogs so people can go out as their lockdown is much stricter than ours. (I am seriously considering it ) Unfortunately we one who will go with no one but me, even DH, a Collie who will pull anyone else off their feet - he knows better than to try it on with us and a small Jack who will walk with anyone however at 13 she reall doesnt need too many walks. Oh well it was only a thought.

Not a bad idea 😂. You could just go to the shop every other day and think of something you need at the chemist on the days inbetween 😁.

Hello all and thank you. He is ok, sore knee but otherwise well. 

Ladyholly I’ve also got a Jack, she’s 8, such a character. 

DD is back from work at Mr M and she said there were no queues today. Hopefully people are finally getting it. 

I haven’t been further than my garden today. Still seeing groups of teens going on the park though. All of a sudden the park across the road is a tourist hotspot.

Have made a nut roast tonight using a tried and tested Thrifty Leslie recipe and using up an old bag of mixed nuts I found in the cupboard. Mr SA has got steak cooked in the slow cooker. He can’t cut meat so it has to be very tender for him. I’m hopeless at cooking steaks, never ask a veggie to cook meat 🤣
