Yes, sorry should have been un-expected. Sometimes typing on the ipad isn't easy.

I have been given the all clear to go home, so it is just a case of waiting whilst they do the paperwork etc. and arrange the ambulance.

Have a nice day maggie, hope the weather is better where you are going, it is grey here today, hope the sun comes out, I have put washing on the line.

Glad to hear you are feeling better Stroppy, don't go overdoing it when you get home.

Afternoon all.

Glad that you are being allowed home Stroppy.  When you do finally arrive home, we don't want any running round now do we?

Hopes that Maggie is enjoying her quilting session.

We got a little bit of gardening done this afternoon.  I did some weedidng in the front gardent and my mum pottered around a little bit in the back garden.  We are both shattered now.  I wish that the plants would grow as well as the weeds do.

A great day was had by all. It was sunny when I left Weymouth but a bit dull in Honiton. The sun arrived later in the day but we were busy sewing then. The drive was nice though as it's all along the coast road. I will put a photo up when it's finished.

[bitsnknots]

Glad that you enjoyed your day Maggie.

[captainbovine]

sounded like a lovely day out there Maggie.

I was in work for 5am, so by 2pm when we got home, I was so shattered I lay on the bed for 5 mins after getting changed......

OH woke me up at 4pm

this is the trouble with early starts...you're afternoon disappears.....

[bitsnknots]

I don't know where this year's gone let alone this afternoon CB.

[captainbovine]

oh you're so right Chris, it's just flying by!

at least the summer is coming and we can sit in our gardens that we have broken our backs in weeding the boogers

[bitsnknots]

It doesn't seem two minutes since we had our new year's party on here does it?  

I just wish the plants would grow as well as the weeds.  A couple of weeks ago, I managed to get eight bucketfuls of weeds out of the front garden alone and that was in the space of about an hour and a half.  This afternoon, I managed to find another load.  Well, I have got to make room for the beddidng plants haven't I?

[stan3502]

Glad you had a great day Maggie and can't wait to see pics.

Managed to get all the grass done and strimming and some plants in pots so quite productive for me especially as had little helpers here most of the day

[ilove2patch]

Lyn the tutor was brilliant. She comes from Bude & is clever & funny. I had a great day.

[stan3502]

Sounds great fun Maggie and sure you all had a fab time

[ilove2patch]

Nice sunny day here. The roads are very busy with all the holiday makers so I will be staying home & sewing. I might have a potter in the garden later.

[learning2me]

Enjoy Maggie.

We are off to visit MIL on her boat in Whitehaven. Will be back either Tuesday or Wednesday, depending on weather, so fingers crossed.

[bitsnknots]

Hope that you enjoy your time on the boat Mags.

It's been a grey day weatherwise here today.  It took us three hours to defrost the fridge freezer.  Methinks we will be needing a new one in the near future but hopefully, this one will last a little bit longer yet.

[stan3502]

Evening all hope you've all had a good day.

I've had a chilled one and been to feed the ducks with the littlies

Oh and while i'm here .............................

[captainbovine]

and also with you Stan!!!

I've had to pot on a houseplant today, a weeping fig. I knew it needed a bigger pot but when I got it out, it was a mass of roots as thick as your little finger!!!! so that wasn't going in any plant pot I had. I've had to pot it up in a blue china garden pot!! It's going to be mahooooosive I think...

watch this space.......
