Another gorgeous but chilly day here - just right for the Thursday volunteer morning at a local park.

As for the rest of the day....

Continue operation 'what's all that !!!!!! under those two chairs?' (aka WATCUTTC) - I want it all dealt with before the next thread 🙃

Morning all,
Chilly and sunny here too. The plan is to head off to the allotment shortly for another tidying session, then back for a late coffee and maybe even some flying, including whatever today’s annoying task turns out to be. The wm has just finished, so I will sort that out before I go.
On tenterhooks here to see exactly what Eltee does find under the chairs…

Valli

Morning all

DS is 32 today!

Got washing to peg out and the DW to empty.

Iona, get Ai to make the poster for you! or a six form student doing media studies, it can be part of their project work. (I've just googled knit and natter psoters loads come up but I'm not sure if they are free, or how to get your relevant details in there, but worth a look)

Valli, Happy Birthday to your DD, hope she has a good day.

Hugs to everyone else.

Been walking over the last few  days found 7 golf balls on the beach, the golfers are bad when there are high winds, hit a shot, wind catches it, straight over the cliff, the balls wash up a couple of days later on the hight wind driven tides!!! my cats love playing with them.

Daily stuff done

Size 12 cheap jeans ordered.

Garden weeds and start to be 'put to bed' for winter, futniture already in, NND and OH sat on MY swing seat heavily and have sort of broken it.................so I think the chain saw will have to come out and I'll buy a new one in the spring.

Am just about to make an apple pie for pudding, as I have an abundance of stewed apple, using the apples up 😀

Yum 😋 what time shall I get there? 

We've now got more apples that DH foraged while at the zoo today. And I've just picked a load of rhubarb from the garden 😉

Ditto from me ^^
Another bag of weeds removed at the allotment. It is actually on its way to looking autumn ready there in some places. I swapped the compost bins over in the back garden, so I now have 3 bags of lovely dark compost ready and one bin ready for filling again, whilst the other is sealed off to finish rotting down.  That’s my extra job for day ticked off. More basil harvested and frozen. Top of the cooker hood and the splashback cleaned. I think that was on the list at some point. Kitchen floor swept as DH is hedge cutting and bringing in tiny pieces with him. Hopefully he has now finished. Because I am rash, I also vacuumed the utility room and the dining room. Now waiting for Mr M to deliver.

Continuing Operation WATCUTTC


• A HANDBAG? with broken zip - fling

• Contents of handbag recycled/flung as appropriate, plus OOD meds added to collection for disposal at chemist

• An insulated lunch bag, not used for years also with broken zips - fling

• Canvas bag full of paperwork I needed to work through after we lost my sister. Needs further consolidating, so have put it away with other paperwork for an admin day/week/month.  Also, I got a bit emotional so can't deal with it presently

• A thousand odd socks (some might say around 20), bagged up ready to be matched/recycled

• Box of stuff, looks like from when I left work (5 years ago!) - needs another coat of looking at/sorting through

• Thick dust - vacuumed

• behind the chair was a shelf from dismantled shelving unit which OH is going to use for 'something' - relocated to garage with the rest if it

That was just 1 chair!  There is only the box under it now.  I can see through the legs to the other side of the room!
