Love the paw prints, wish I'd thought of that, while I was still able to get them.

Thanks Raven.
When I look back at the German Shepherds paw print next to the little Beddies,  it makes the Beddies look like toys! 

I have always kept my old pony's horse shoes too -  and he died back in 1974.

Yes Mups, Acrylic Paint Pens from Ebay.

I hate ironing, so not much gets done here.  I used to iron pillowcases too, but now I just fold them,  after all, there's only me sees them   

We had rain here today too, not much but enough to please the plants.

What a great idea for the garden !

Quote from: Raven on Yesterday at 04:51:35 PMThere's lot's of videos on YouTube of how to paint stones, I referred to them a lot. I also used paint pens not brush and paint, then varnished them after they dried.

Raven,  what paint do you use?  Is it acrylics?

I once did all my dogs paw prints and painted them.   I rolled a piece of clay out,  then put it under one front paw while lifting the other opposite front paw a little,  and that made them put more weight onto the clay to get the imprint done.     I have more than these three here.  I have done all the dogs over the years.
They don't look deep imprints in the picture, but they are.

Quote from: muddy on Yesterday at 05:34:02 PMI think they are brilliant !

That book looks great Mups .
And what a good idea re the plants .
I frequently forget what I have planted I put little markers in but they always seem to get lost / knocked over / and generally disappear forever .
A stone would be a much better option .

Yes,  I liked the plant markers idea too,  Muddy.

I think we can paint on slate too, can't we?

Yes Klondie,  I keep getting that sandy stuff all over my car windows, too. 
 It's a nuisance isn't it.   
If I clean it off, its back again my next morning.

It rained here tea time.  A nice gentle rain,  and I love the fresh smell it brings.
Unfortunately it also brings every slug and snail for miles around too.   PLUS,  I just saw a big spider run across my kitchen floor! 

Ours was more that 4 minutes. Maybe 6 or possibly 7. I expect my car is still filthy. Keep getting that sandy muck settle on it. Given the wind direction and temperature it's not coming from the Sahara which usually gets the blame.

I ordered something from toolstation for pickup that was out of stock locally but was supposed to be in next day and I'd get a ready to collect email. Was mid afternoon and I was going out shopping anyway so I went a bit further to Toolstation despite no email. They could see the order and said it should have arrived but after a good look around they couldn't find it. The bloke there reordered it with a credit so it would cost nothing and I picked it up next day.

Now I find in my email...

Well I'm not traipsing down to Somerset but at least I know where it ended up.
Wonder if I'll get that refund. Shame it was only some cheap drills for £5.98. I'd have got posh ones if I'd known 

Perhaps we need to tame these rhymes
Keep them innocent for some time
Talk about knitting, pets or food
Nothing raunchy, rude or lewd
I'll give those a miss and watch Amazon Prime

I always heed what the warnings say
If there are none I just think nay 

I bet I iron less
