Good morning - just defrosted the fridge freezer which is quite old and every time I defrost it, I am worried that it may not work again. I did it today just in case it gave up its ghost, I could still go out and buy one!

Now perspiring and hot.

Not a bad day, temperature wise, no uplifting sunshine though. Shame that the rain doesn't even itself out, Now it's raining every other day. In summer, it didn't rain for 3 months.

Good morning all, it's raining again but not cold.
The tithonia that I've got grows to 3ft, it's a new one.

Went to my friend keith yesterday, not very good with his ms. Having trouble swallowing and he could have a growth in his right ear.

Love to see them Ex was very excited when he was introduced to nuthatch in the Lake District.

Today, I have been working very hard, Sweat dripped like tear drops. From 9.30 to 5.30 with an hour of lunch break.

The dreaded woodchips, most of it, gone.

Went out and found this anaemic hellebore

Hubby has already gone out to Sainsbury's, went out at 6.10 they open at 6.30.

That's what my son suggested and I then reminded him that these days, he couldn't get up not after 8am!

Came down with a nasty cold since the day before and had numerous paracetamols. Obviously, they haven't helped. Nose just get runny! Nice excuse to have on a Christmas day. I'm going to put up my feet and let my beloved son do the rest.
