Yogi, I'm not applying for Carmen either
Does it show that much El? 
Well done Moonie, I think you must hold the record for number of washes, I've only done 2 but I've cleaned the car too. Yogi the plants did arrive before my gardener left so he was able to plant them for me. Well done on getting your hanging baskets planted up

Hi squiggle 
Good weather and a lot of dirty washing 
Two washes is great considering you washed the car
That alone is worth two washes

We all have those days sometimes. Don't beat yourself up - tomorrow is another day and probably a better one

Velvet, I agree with squiggle. We all have those days. So, positive thoughts for a better tomorrow

Don't feel bad, Velvet. I'm sure the person will understand that you would have been there if you could have made the journey.

That was good timing. Were you happy with the plants?
The plants in my hanging baskets are quite small atm, but I'm hoping they will look lovely when they are in full bloom.
Oh yes Yogi the quality of the plants is outstanding. I just have to try and run the hose to them for a day or so until the good Lord will help me out with the watering. Lavateras are quite forgiving though and very quick growers. Your hanging baskets should fill out quickly, of course watering nightly is essential for them.

That's brilliant, Squiggle. I'm sure they will come on a treat.
I'll make sure I water them nightly and feed them regularly too.

Evening Velvet. 
Just been making a cuppa.
velvet donkey posted:I'm watching the council house prog. No wonder I like Alfie, The Italian Job and Georgie Girl. London isn't is what it was. And I'm not leading you on to agree. It just isn't.
I'm not watching. Is it about how difficult it is to get a council house in London?
velvet donkey posted:Yeah.
I imagine it applies most built up areas though
I guess so.
For my sins, I've been watching BGT.
velvet donkey posted:One of them is growing stubble
Yeah I watched some of it too
I'm off to watch Silent Witness on Drama now. I like a good murder.
Goodnight and sweet dreams, Velvet.
Hugs for any night owls.
night yogi and velvet and summer if you pop in
Good morning everyone
The sunny conditions have gone here, it's very cloudy and not expected to be as warm as a result.
I see that it is hoped that a museum will be built to celebrate the work of Gloucester Railway Carriage and Wagon Company on the derelict land where the firm was for years.

My paternal grandfather worked there and the firm was closed down decades ago. He died before I was born.
I hope evryone has a good day
Good morning everyone, it's definitely chillier this morning with some clouds but still a little blue sky, I hope it will warm up later though. Off for a dental check up this morning.
Enjoy your day everyone

Much cooler and breezier today.
Out and about this morning, then two sons visiting this afternoon.
I hope all goes well at the dental check up, Squiggle.
Have a good day everyone.
All is well with my check up 
I hope you have a great time with your sons visiting Yogi. I found that Peach Cobbler yogurt EL, I looked in the right place this time.

Good evening bramble and I are safely back home, and snuggling on the sofa our journey was wet, but smooth.
I hope you're all having a good week
Fankoo moonie how are you?
I made it back just in time to cut the grass before the rain came! 
Fankoo moonie! You would have been proud it's hard to slow down after a lengthy drive so I used the momentum productively
hows your day been?

Welcome back, we've missed you. I know what you mean about it being hard to slow down after a long drive. When I was younger,after driving over 300 miles I unloaded the car and put everything away. Started the washing, cleaned the house top to bottom and then washed and hoovered the car.
Hi squiggle how are you? I've missed you all
I know what you mean! My bags are unpacked, laundry done, new plants have been dug in and I had a long hot bath. The car however, erm... 
I'm going to Chirchill. So goodnight to all who are here and to those who night owl
Welcome back, Summer.
El, I love all things Beatrix Potter. I've got books I had for the boys which I have already read to PB and and will read to BB. When middle DiL and I went to The World Of Beatrix Potter, we didn't want to leave.
I'm in the middle of a good book, so I'm going to get off and read for a while.
Goodnight and sweet dreams Moonie and Velvet.
Night owl hug for Ros.
