Blimey! How scarifying!! Working in the dark? How brave!
I'm glad you stopped for food and drink breaks, Sir Mike... Hope that you have rested and paced ready for the day ahead. Do you have any plans?
Spoke to Brenda (lunch club volunteer) she was saying since the more severe restrictions in Bolton people from Bolton are traveling down to my little town to do there drinking in local pubs and there was a corona outbreak associated with the Bulls Head.
Spoke to sis and bro in law on the phone they are currently in Yorkshire where the series Heartbeat was filmed the joys of having a motor home means they can go out and about.
Did some shopping gotta have cake (giggle) and pottered in the garden nothing too strenuous :)
How selfish of those people! When are people going to realise how serious this all is? We ALL need to do our bit
Thing is as long as people are being that selfish this is all just going to keep going and keep getting worse again.
Sorry Mike....
Lucky Sis and bil! That sounds so much fun!
I heard a joke and thought of you. That you might like it. So here it is.
My uncle told me all my life that when one door closes another door opens.
The man was a Saint but the worst cabinetmaker I have ever seen.
(rofl) (rofl)

(rofl)
How are you this morning Sir Mike?
It's very warm here.....what's it like with you??(whew)
Hey hunni, how are you?
It was warm Flo but now it is wet. spent Monday afternoon weeding it was hot and sunny then Tuesday afternoon more weeding it was hot and dull, today it rained all morning and has stopped now but haven't ventured outside had piles of weeds and soil thrown on the paths wanted to shift them then brush the paths but the rain has probably turned then in to a muddy mess.
A quick joke "A man walks into a bar" OUCH, well simple things amuse simple ..... (giggle)
Missed you Sir Mike! How are things? How's your mood? You still getting out and about for shopping or are you having it delivered?
Moods okay Suzi been pottering in the garden did shopping at the local shop yesterday spoke to sis on the phone everything okay at her end. Might dig up some spuds later today, having fish 'n chips for lunch :)
You're so quiet atm, I'm worried about you...
^^^wss these last couple of months you’ve not seemed your usual, bubbly self
No need to worry about me ladies it is such strange times at the moment. Spent yesterday moving barrow loads of grass and weeds which I'd heaped on my paths while weeding then shoveled soil off the path, today spent an hour hosing down the paths currently got fish fingers and chips in the oven so can't linger.
PS. Dug up a row of spuds a lot marble sized some hens egg size and one big un would say enough for four meals.
Yay for home grown spuds! :)
Glad you're OK lovely, I've missed you!
Yayyyyy....you just can't beat home grown tatties!!...they've got to have lots of butter on them though!....blow the cholesterol!!(rofl) Glad you're ok Mike!
A bit of path repair yesterday nothing like making mud pies erm I mean mixing mortar and filling cracks in the paving.
Yup Flo nothing like a knob of butter or three on ones tatties.
Ooooo drooling for new spuds and butter. We didn't plant any this year...... I have regrets!!
Path all fixed?
What are you up to today?
Path isn't finished yet, pork pie, baked spud, tomatoes, cheese and Branston pickle for lunch followed by a slice of raspberry sponge and a hot choc then fell asleep to be awakened by my games console sliding off my knee and landing with a thump on the carpet. Thinking about cutting the grass before it rains.
PS I need a boot extractor is that the correct term! as pulling my wellibobs off is a bit of a struggle at my age (giggle)
Keep the pork pie and the cheese, but your lunch sounds yummy!
Do you mean one of these Mike

I always wondered you scrape your boot on it to remove dirt then stand on it with the other foot and remove the boot, but then your putting a clean sock on a dirty part to pull the other boot off!
My Dad used to have a really old cast iron one of those!
They still do them Suzi but more expensive
I've got a cast iron wellie puller in the shape of a beetle! Know what you mean though Mike ...clean foot on dirty puller.
Gone for a cast iron puller thanks guys :)
Well done sir!!
What are you up to today lovely? Anything fun planned?
An afternoon pottering today, spoke to sis this morning and 2 of her neighbours have got corona a mum and her daughter the daughter a 20 something went to Liverpool to meet up with some of her old uni mates for a bit of a party and couple of days later the daughter then the mum started the daughter recons she got it on the train/bus but sis and I recon it was the bash in a pub where the wine flowed free.
Oh no!
Oh no! I hope Sis hasn't been socialising with them? It's a bit close to home then isn't it?
Swoosh, swoosh water oh
The end just flew off my hosey ho
Jet of liquid across my kitchen O
Need new pipes for my washing machine O
A poem dedicated to the fact that the end of one of my washing machine hoses end broke off leading to water spouting across the kitchen fortunately I was in the kitchen at the time so could turn it off.
And so to Amazon I do go to get a new pipe E O (giggle)
PS. Oh forgot white rabbits, white rabbits, pinch punch first of the month.
Oops!
Love the poem! Hope it gets fixed soon! Good job you were there to stop it!
Rained all day Saturday so spent the day cleaning my hob and oven doors such excitement, Sunday was a Zelda playing day not sure where today will take me.
But were you bored and desperate enough to do the inside of the oven? I hate that job! Mind you, I cleaned my hob on Saturday too!
Looks like they are going to lock us down more here oop north.
Pottered about in the garden yesterday afternoon, I'm getting good at pottering ;)
