Good morning Sunday

[meriad]

Good morning all, it's promising to be another lovely day. The birthday lunch yesterday was good; made even better by the fact that there was a market in Guildford and I managed to get 6 herb plants for £10 - happy me. Up early again, wide awake at 4am - and then dozed on and off. Need to be at the rubbish dump by 8.40 - it opens at 9am but hopefully the queue won't be too long if I go 20 or so minutes earlier, I'll just take a coffee and 'chat' to friends on Facebook and WhatsApp. Had a bit of a disaster yesterday in that I realised by deep freeze had packed up. It's in an outside store area so I don't see it every day and yesterday when I walked in it's a bit whiffy in there and then I saw a red light flashing. Not sure when it happened but everything has defrosted and now needs to be chucked. The door was properly closed so not sure what went wrong; I tried switching it off and on again - the red light stopped and it was only green (as it should be) but it just didn't go below 19 degrees. So guess who will be needing to buy a new one - sigh

Message received from Jan yesterday as well - she was hoping to collect her laptop yesterday but apparently it'll only be ready next week now. Rather frustrating for her

Well, I'll be off now to clean a rather smelly deep freezer and then crack on with the day.

have a lovely one all xxxxx

Morning all

Ria, that sounds like a lovely day, apart from the freezer business! Grrr, what a nuisance Jan must be a bit fed up about her laptop Although since I got my kindle I must admit I hardly use mine.

It's gone grey here, after the most beautiful sunny day yesterday, but at least it feels warm still. Usual Sunday here - out for a cuppa and the papers, then home to catch up with stuff on the player

Have a good day everyone xx

Grey and warm here too kaz. Ria, good work with the herb plants.
Daughter, Eliza and the hound of the Baskervilles are here again. He's not actually a hound, he's a cockapoo. Tbh he looks like a ginger spaniel with a funny tail! But he has a good nature; he loves everybody.
I need to do some sweeping up today and we are having a family Sunday dinner.
Have a good day all.

Morning all, it is rather dull here with lots of rain forecast for later. Just the day to do the ironing and I’ll also carry on knitting a little baby cardi, one of my gym friends has her first grandchild due soon. She is a very nice lady who was widowed very young, when her son was 4 or 5, and she never remarried. She is very quiet and keeps herself to herself, but always lovely to talk to and I thought it would be nice to make a little something for the baby because becoming a grandmother is so special.

Afternoon all

Bright and sunny here

How annoying about your freezer Ria, we have an old one out in the garage which doesn't get checked that often. Hope you haven't lost too much.

Not a lot happening here. The stroll at the harbour yesterday was lovely but has left us both a little sore so it's just general pootling today. Roast pork for dinner later, followed by chocolate blancmange and orange jelly for pud.

Have a good day
