Not bothering with the personal monitor - he wasn't aware that the previous engineer hadn't left me with one and didn't have one with him. As my usage is fairly static from day to day, the monitor wasn't something that I was particularly interested in and it's easy to check online as to what I have used each day. A monitor is of more use where there is more than one person living in the house. I could get one in the future if I ever decided to but I doubt if I will.

 

I am so pleased that you didn't have to hang around for ages and it's all finished

I hope the meter engineer is in and out in a flash and does a good job too.

 

I wonder what you will be watching or listening to while you do the ironing Yogi, it goes much fast with something to watch or listen to doesn't it?

 

Enjoy your day everyone

It does indeed, Squiggle. I watched an episode of Miss Marple.

Fancy a go at waterskiing?

 

 Love it!

What are you doing tomorrow?

 Thank you.

 

We've got some banking to do in the morning, but nothing else planned. 

If the weather is dry, I might cut the lawns.

 

Are you working tomorrow?

Yes I am, and hopefully off on Wednesday

Greenhouse has been rubbish this year. So far, I've had ONE ripe tomato!

There simply hasn't been enough sunshine or heat.

The raised bed has been a bit better, the lettuces, herbs and onions have been good. 

 

Do you have plans for Wednesday, or just relaxing?

Good morning everyone

 

Clouding over here, more rain expected by early afternoon.

 

Talking of tomatoes and hair, I bumped into someone from church in the local Co-op one day last week. She had 3 items, some cheese, some small tomatoes, and some hair spray. So I said to her, that's an interesting recipe, the sort of thing Heston Blumenthal might do. As the hair spray would be inflammable, she could use that to cook the cheese and tomatoes and give them an unusual taste. On Sunday she told me that she had managed to avoid setting her kitchen on fire.

I'm glad she managed to avoid setting fire to her kitchen.

Lol El, thank goodness. How on earth would she explain that to the fire brigade!

Yogi, my mum says it's an all called Jigsaw World she's currently on her 124th lol and she does them like that because she lacks table space to put. Jigsaw. Bless her

 Thanks Summer, I'll take a look at that tonight.

 

Good morning everyone.

 

Weather is sunny atm.

 

Off to do some banking this morning, then gardening in the afternoon (weather permitting). 

 

Have a good day everyone.

Good morning everyone, I am glad you are having such lovely weather Skylark, it's rubbish down here but it's nice to hear of someone at least having sunshine.

 

It's not been a good summer for ripening things, I know that where I live we haven't had those long periods of hot sunshine that you need.  And it's already feeling very autumnal, loads of people talking about having to put their heating on in August.

 

I've played those jigsaws on line, there are loads of sites and when I have played on there and also real life jigsaws it is those 50's style jigsaws that I love the most. Here is another site to try http://www.jigsawplanet.com/.  If I remember rightly EL the pieces come up quite small the more pieces you opt for and so that limits the number of pieces you can go for.  But I think you can customise it how you choose.

 

I love the Heston Blumenthal recipe idea

 

Enjoy your day everyone
