No prob..weather is ideal, lawn is damp and rain forecast..but don't thank me, a blank cheque for Vlad Gardening Services will suffice.

As I predicted it put on a repeat performance while I was out. Luckily while I was near easy shelter. It wasn't heavy and didn't last long.

Went to the local garden centre for some houseplant compost,  but got side tracked looking at other things.
Go home, and realised I still hadn't got the compost, so had to go back out again!   :rolleyes:

Happens whenever I go upstairs to do something but so far as I recall not when going to buy something specific. So far as I recall  :rolleyes:

I have the urge to paint my loft a Saffrony sort of colour or maybe a Lemon Punch.

Vlad, once you see the price of paint nowadays, your enthusiasm will wane considerably😳

Just had 2 slices of toast with cheese spread and a big mug of tea.
Thought you'd really want to know that.

I picked my lad up and he did them.  I can't get the little screws off, PLUS there's no 20 pence air now, it went up to £1, but now it's card only.   No wonder 'old people'  struggle  :grin:

p.s, I'm sure I typed  'tyres' but the US version came up.

I bought a combined battery booster and tyre pump. It came from Lidl, Can't recall price but probably not a lot more than £50. Fixes both types of flat. Sods law says when I need it myself it will be flat, I have used it to start a neighbours car and once my own plus keep the tyres topped up.

That excitement comes to these parts tomorrow but your post reminds me to put up my notice reminding me to put it out. It also reminded me that once again I forgot to wipe out the microwave so that one can go up too.
