    😁😁

    Just watched the weather for today with Carol Kirkwood and she reckons after a bit of a rainy start then the rest of today will be dry 👍.  I'll sue her if she's wrong 😼

    Plan for today is pottering about in the borders, many weeds have taken hold so they need sorting. 
    Just my opinion, no offence 🐈

    Something has gone drastically wrong! :o Sitting between the moors, we often escape the rain, but we've not had a totally dry day in over a week now. I did manage to have a bonfire and a photoshoot for eBay yesterday, but we ended up confined in the polytunnel again by 4pm.
    Today? Well, today is fish & chips. :smiley: This week I hope not to share the shop with a non-mask-wearing, drunken, swearing dwarf, but it's Kirton, so who knows! :D
    Edit: Don't try to find Kirton on the map. Tis Deb'n talk. ;)

    And it's back to normal for the week, pouring down & very windy, IOW Hovercraft suspended tells you all you need to know
    Zero outside today except a wheelie bin dash if it eases a bit

    Lol, fish n chips for us on Saturday evening *yum* - something to look forward to.  Hopefully no swearing yokels in there for us 😁

    Just pulled lots of weeds and lots of "tiny weeds" in the gravel around the herb troughs. Not sure which one has flung them out but I have my eye on them!  I only have a handful growing, mint, curry plant, thyme, rosemary, chives (might not be classed as herbs but I've stuck some in between) and a couple others which I forget the names of just now.  Rain is back so I'm back on the sofa watching the news :/
