Nota good idea to lock yourself in a bathroom imo. I wouldn't even know if mine worked or not.

No, sorry I phrased that all wrong.   It's not a lock he's putting on,  its just a new handle because the old one has gone all floppy and when you open the door the handle doesn't spring back up again, its just flops about.  
 I went to Wickes the other day and bought a new handle,  but its not a lockable one.

Quote from: Scrumpy on March 04, 2026, 09:37:16 AMThere is a dog nearby who barks  every morning at around 6:45.
Just three barks.. I think he is telling the world that he is going to have a pee..
He is like an alarm clock.. I would miss hearing him..
I used to keep and breed a lot of birds once, and had about 5 or 6 cockerels of different breeds.  I could identify  who it was cock-a-doodling by their voice,  I knew them that well.   
However,  they were in a small field next to my garden, well away from houses,  but the neighbouring one is only about 15ft from my bedroom window,  and its like he's in the room with me!
Neighbour said the bird is going next weekend.

A beautiful morning,   all sunshine and glorious blue sky.
After my Ocado order has come I shall be doing some jobs in the garden -   if my bad shoulder lets me. :rolleyes:

Fog and mist here so far.

Got the grass cut yesterday, it makes such a difference.  Potted a few primula to brighten it up, and was planning to do some more tidying today.  Or not.
Its not how old you are, but how you are old. 💖

Fishing today. Soon be the end of the season and with all the rain the river has been in flood most of this year so far too coloured to bother fishing. May well draw a blank today too but at least the weather promises to be good.

Lovely day here too so I've been sat in the garden for ages just listening to the birds. !   I had to nip to Morrisons for some cream and lemons but I ended up buying £30 of stuff I could get in Aldi for a lot less, but it's convenient !

Drizzle first thing, now just dull. Not seen the sun since Monday when my neighbour kindly cut my grass
Thank you for the days, the days you gave me

Whilst sitting on a big chunk of a felled tree down the park today,  I counted  SIX  Ladybirds crawling along in the lovely warm sunshine.  :smiley:
