Moving forward and upwards

Good to see you back DIA, hope your move went well 😃

Releasing the inner child is loads of fun! Sometimes we have jelly or A-delight, or viennetta and giggle while eating 🤭🤭

Glad you had some time with family. Hopefully we'll have some soon once various people's vaccines kick in and lockdown eases

Thanks SH, I do really like TomBo's family, they're what I'd describe as a 'normal' family. No arguing, jealousy, competitive and put downs, just always encouraging. Which is a total breath of fresh air from my own and everything I knew before moving up here.

There's blue sky and sunshine today. Hopefully warm enough to do a bit of weeding, grab some compost and sow seeds.

For now I'm letting my coffee settle then will make a start on the porcibule.

Blue sky? Amazing

It’s great to have lovely in laws & that they are so supportive. We have had sun & blue sky last few days but forecast to come cold again by Thursday 🥶

Get a lot of blue skies up here SH!
It is Skinty, all of the extended in-law family are welcoming.

Yesterday I planted up the first salad bar, raddish, beetroot, leeks and spring onions, plus I got my first lot of spuds in. I also put another coat on the porcibule.
Had roast lamb yesterday, it was delicious! TomBo baked some almond puff pastry's and I also had some of the fruit pudding; definitely exceeded cals yesterday, but if it's only very occasionally I'm happy with that.

Things to do this week are start sowing the greens (cabbage and cauli) and some tom's, tidy up more of the patio and do more on the porcibule. TomBo is to use the new incinerator to clear a load of wood, keep doing the flat neighbours garden.

£72 in the bank, still to pay the unknown utility bill and bank fee, 11 days until payday.

Having leftover lamb tonight 😃

Planting all those is great. I want some of your lamb and pudding. YUM!!!

Got another coat on the door and frame. I'm going to keep adding a coat each evening after work.

Had a lamb stew type thing tonight, with potatoes, pudding was the almond puff slice.

Tombo does sound an adventurous cook

MovingForwards

He definitely is, I can come home with random things and he will make a meal from it. I tend to make Indian, Italian or roasts.

It's a clear blue sky today, warmer than it has been.

I'm going to do some seed planting later, plus get another coat on the front door. The more I can get done this week, means the less I have to do on my long weekends and I can then fill it with other stuff and rest.

Having chicken later.
