squiggle, there has already been a very heavy shower a couple of hours ago, and the possibility of some more, but I think the threat of really heavy showers is less tomorrow and Sunday, though some showers are still forecast.

 

Have a great 6th anniversary this weekend, Summer

I will only buy things that are essential.

Mr Yogi's definition of essential may not be the same as mine.

I like pickled beetroot

Me too.

I hope Zaphod doesn't see this, he is this forum's leading anti-beetroot campaigner and would go Hawk Spit at you and at Yogi

I'm expecting my brother to arrive any minute so I may not be back on here today. See you

I think it's fair to say, Zaph isn't keen on beetroot.

Have a great weekend with your brother.

we could eat all the beets before zaph even caught wind of their existence We actually have some in our fridge right now El I hope you have a good weekend with your brother

 Let's give it a go.

Afternoon Buddies Hope everyone is having a nice Friday. Anyway, just popped in to say thanks for keeping me company Yogi Hope you finally managed to get some sleep

Hi Baz, I appreciated your company last night.

I did managed to get around four hours sleep, i hope you did too..

That's good Yogi  I got a couple too

I'm glad, Baz.

Oh, and thanks for my bacon buttie.

 You're welcome.... I usually have one on the go at that time of night.... or if you want to be posh I could do you scrambled eggs and salmon

I'm not the least bit very posh, so I'd love some scrambled eggs next time please, but you can leave out the salmon.

 Ok.... scrambled eggs on paper plates it is then

And no Tommy Tippee cup, I can manage with a plastic beaker.

Ok.... if you promise to be careful

Okaaaaaaay, I promise.

Good morning everyone

 

Ooh, scrambled eggs on toast, yummy - my favourite way of eating eggs (in order of nicesness from least upwards:

addled

hard-boiled

soft-boiled

fried (I generally don't eat this way because of the fat)

poached

scrambled

Do I smells eggs?! Morning Happy weekend all

Good morning everyone, a chilly grey morning here.  I like eggs any which way, they are all delicious.  One thing I did love about American holidays was being able to all go out for delicious breakfasts - although they do weird things like giving you pancakes on the same plate as your eggs and bacon

 

Enjoy your weekend, whatever you are up to.

Good morning everyone.

Ros, sorry I missed you, I had an early night.

Squiggle, I love pancakes (with maple syrup) and crispy bacon on the same plate.

Summer, hope you and Mr Summer have a lovely anniversary.

El, I've never eaten addled eggs, how do you make them?

I've never heard of addled eggs, please elaborate..! Thanks yogi 6 years together, and some lovely adventures along the way hows your Saturday going?

I think an addled egg is a bad egg.

 

Congratulations on your anniversary Summer, I am glad you and Mr Summer have shared some special times with lots more in your future I hope

Hi Summer.

The picklers are about to get started, so I am going for a leisurely stroll round the garden centre. I may have a cappuccino and a large small piece of cake while I'm there.

Enjoy your special day with Mr Summer.

Be back later.

I tthought it was a cooking method.

A fox just strolled by my window

Did he look in?

We sometimes see them around here, but it's usually at night.

No he just strolled by like a dog out for a scamper, lucky I don't keep chickens.

at the addled eggs! Well I've never had a bad one either.. Squiggle blimey, in broad daylight too?! Have you seen any near you before?

He's a cheeky one, being out and about at this time of the day.

I had picked up my brother-in-law and his wife from the station 18 months ago and we were talking about wildlife down here and I said I hadn't yet seen a fox, immediately a fox jumped out of the hedge and crossed the lane in front of us   My hubby used to see one in the field next door when he was washing in the morning though.  But strolling through the garden in broad daylight was a bit cheeky I thought.

Hi everyone x
We have had a day of torrential rain. Going to have a read thru and catch up with all the goss x 

Aww Skylark, we've had a beautiful, sunny day over in the west.

Been awful here Yogi, thunder for ages, then the broadband went down, then Orange went too. My son was beside himself not getting on FB 
Happy Anniversary Mr and Mrs Summer x
 Hi everyone else x

Our forecast was cloudy with sunny spells, but it turned out really sunny.

I'll probably pour down tomorrow.
