Morning everyone.
It's chucking it down with rain hear in NW leicestershire and I honestly think I would rather have snow.
Had a very good week so far, £10 in FB marketplace sales and 1p road kill when out with my dad last weekend.
Happy Thursday.SPC 0372 -
Ah I'm with you now LMD, I thought perhaps it was an app you'd downloaded for 🤔 goodness only knows what!! I'll try and remember in future though.Excellent potting!!Wasn't it a shocking day yesterday Siju! ☔ I was talking to a friend on Twitter in the morning who was videoing near where they live, andthe rain was absolutely chucking it down on his brolly! He lives up north and said it would be soon snowing, I think I'd sooner have snow too.Well the nights are drawing out a little at least, but it'll be better when it's into March! It's lovely to see Snowdrops and Daffodils out and Crocuses are well on their way, lovely. 🥰Very good potting!So you too posted yesterday madlyn, and what a day! I'd sooner have snow too, not that we get to choose! 😮💨A very good week for you for sure what with potting from FB as well as a 1p found!!£10 transferred from our bank account to our SPC account. I was very happy with that as I certainly didn't expect it.Have a really great weekend folks!Sue,The end date for SPC is on the 24th October 2024 - but no later, please!
