I had my Pfizer jab yesterday, absolutely painless, no effects apart from bad headache but that could be due to a night with DGD waking up a few times and lack of sleep

Good afternoon folks. Not posted for a while because my partner died last Saturday ...not Covid related and he had been ill. But felt very down.

So sorry to hear that @sashacat 🙁 xx

Hello all, hugs to all that need them, the gods seem to be having some fun at the moment... 😒

Well I bought some very cheap seeds from Lidl today 20p and 49p, she did charge me for an extra pack though.... my quest to grow some edible things this year has started!
I also bought 5 large hellebore plants from someone for £3 each and he gave me 3 other plants too, I love hellebores but never had any as they are usually quite expensive, got to decide where they are going to go, I've got lots of bulbs coming up everywhere too 🌷🌻

Had a lovely walk on the beach, it was very windy but blew the cobwebs away and helped me de-stress a bit, the dogs absolutely love the beach 🐶

Pineapples, randomly, seem to be really cheap at the moment, got one for 49p last week, it's now ripe and very tasty!

My neighbour's just told me I can use her brown bin tomorrow, sadly I have only 1 bag so need to see if there is anything I can chop down tomorrow 😊
