:hello: Good morning

Thank goodness it’s a bright & beautiful day today, the sun is
shining away.

It was absolutely tipping it down for
most of yesterday. At least the garden has been well watered!

Been out there this morning & picked more courgettes, runner
beans and a couple more cucumbers. Will freeze courgettes &
beans later on today.

Well done on latest wins indie. :T :j

I saw the Transport Museum leanfun when I was up in London
for son’s surprise birthday meal. Sounds as if you had a great
time there with family.

Got another busy day here so off to have a quick cuppa before
cracking on.

Have a lovely weekend all, take care.

Sunny here too Alfie. Let’s hope everyone has a bit of sun for the weekend.
We didn’t get out here yesterday due to rain.

Alfie you are sound very green fingers with your veggies. Fresh runner beans are my favourite. We had some sliced courgette in a fusilli pasta yesterday. I’ve never tried shredding them to make the pasta. We had ours with salmon and DD had meat balls.

We have DD1’s 8 year old coming today so the three of them can cause havoc together. I think it will be a trip to park if it stays fine.

At London Transport Museum you could either buy a day ticket or have your name on it for it to be annual for same price. So I’ll be going back with 8 year old GS week after next. They had some real buses you could go on and some toy ones for the little ones and a large picnic area with tables where you could buy drinks if you wanted to.

Sheils we are lucky as DH and I have freedom passes for free travel in London on buses, trains and underground. Going out in London can be very expensive.

Hope work is better Indie.

Take care and enjoy weekend.

Morning, raining here at the moment. It was lovely and sunny yesterday when i was at work,lol. They have said it should clear by the afternoon so i hope so as have loads of towels to put out. Work was ok yesterday i was 1-1 with a lady and she slept on and off till 6. She is on the dementia floor and has got aggresive and hitting out at anyone and everyone.Expect the night staff will be annoyed with me as she will be up causing havoc as she hasn't a 1-1 after 8pm.The home is paying for it at the moment whilst they get evidence to prove she needs it for the local athorities but i don't think she will get funded for it as they have really cut back on funding now.
I have been locked out of Instagram, and have been for nearly 3 days. Keep getting a message telling me they are protecting their community and click here if i think it's wrong. I click and it says "thankyou" but nothing seems to be happening. Wouldn't mind if i had posted hundreds but only entered 30 over 3 days before that.Will just have to keep trying it every day and see what happens.
Sounds like you had a good time at the transport museum leanfun i went there when it was the flower market many years ago,lol.
Off to make a coffee now. Hope you all have a good weekend.

Morning.its sunny here so far this morning.

Indie pleased your work was better yesterday. Funding is difficult. Months ago I heard some financier on Politics Live say it would be great if the government really tackled funding for the elderly needing care. PrOper funding and care would affect so many people’s lives.
I was locked out weeks ago with the same massage as you. I think it was for a few days I left it and was then back in. I realised I had only been responding to mentions and not looking at the home page. So now I make sure I flick through some of the home page before I do anything else. To be honest I’m not really sure if this was the reason but I’ve not been locked out since.

Thanks for that i just tried again but no luck so will wait a few days then try again and go to their home pages as well.It's worth a try.

Morning all very quiet here now. DD2 decided to go home yesterday afternoon. I don’t think the children wanted to go but she had something planned with their school friends today.

We now have a week to catch up on everything. Washing top priority. Sunny here now so hope to get some dried.

Sheils hope you and DH have a good journey today our thoughts will be with you all tomorrow.

Take care everyone and good luck.

Afternoon
Thanks for the link Alfie, well deserved first prize.
Been busy today. I got a new 3 piece suite yesterday and it's being delivered this afternoon. It took 4 hours to get the old one out last night as it was so big and we kept getting it stuck but must admit we had a few laughs trying to get it out and did eventually. Poor Charlie don't know what's going on as we have the dining chairs to sit and he keeps walking around looking at us on them.
Instagram is still playing up but it's letting me post pictures,very strange.I will just keeping trying once a day till it lets me back in.
Just taking DS to his hobby shop, hope you all have a lucky day.
