Quote from: Scrumpy on April 12, 2026, 11:48:10 AMOh Michael!! What are we going to do with you..?
   Was it whiskey or Rum..!!! 
      Keep safe...Keep upright... xx

Mary will be back in a couple of weeks...

Sadly neither - it just my balance is so bad now - aright one minute, on the floor or whatever the next with no warning

had heavy rain early, the some showers

cheered me up no end!

I have just read something, and you might think me nuts,  but it really made me think.
Here goes:


Imagine if our banks deposited £84,600 in our account every morning,  and we had to spend it all every day,  otherwise it would be totally deleted.   
I expect most of us would spend it before it was taken away again.

Now imagine something this instead -  and this part is really true..

We are actually  given 84,600 seconds fresh every single day to use up.
We can use it wisely to help and benefit ourselves and others,  or just waste it.

Maybe we should spend it well,  or the loss is ours.

Dunc says he might make time to go for a swim and a sauna this afternoon and that's fine if it's not too busy, but you never know at the W/E. I won't do as many lengths as I usually do but intend to spend more time just relaxing in the Jacuzzi's ☺️

Is that in your gaff?

Quote from: Mups on April 12, 2026, 01:01:01 PMA chilly wind blowing for the last couple of days.  I don't feel like doing much outside  when its like this,  so think I might sow some more seeds indoors  instead.
I wish we'd never had to change to this stupid peat-free rubbish!

Same same Mups, but I mix mine with a John Innes No 3 which adds some body to it.

Yes,  I'll second that.   
How are you now Michael?

Quote from: klondike on April 11, 2026, 09:21:47 PMBetter to spend it on that than annoying the people who can block off the fuel routes and bugger the world economy. Probably cheaper just on the cost of the bangers used. Certainly cheaper than the cost to the whole world which is just lining the pockets of billionaires.

But they are doing both!

I am too much of a lady to say.
