Not Much Traffic In Cb Today.

[Tilly2]

Have you all been out and about, enjoying the sunshine?

I have. Lunch with friends in a riverside restaurant then back home and straight out, into the garden, to do battle with the rapidly growing weeds.

[emmie]

no, been indoors, its quite chilly here, and been on a/b for a time. plus a visit from a friend, and on the phone few times,
time just goes by.

Very weak sun didn't come out until about 3pm and it's still a freezing east wind. I worked this morning but have finally been out this afternoon and dead-headed all the hydrangeas. Looks so much better but boy was it nippy.

[emmie]

have been debating for a better word about the subjects close to our hearts, if you look in news section you will see what i mean...

[Mamyalynne]

Been a glorious day here - can't say the same for AB though.


Lunch by the river sounds lovely, I may have lunch by the water if the sun makes 2 days running.

I've been hanging out with my sheep, waiting for more lambs to appear (as if by magic). It's quite nice sitting in the shed doorway, soaking up the sun and listening to lambs and their mums make wee bleatly noises.

battle with old leaf piles here, all gone
battle with the black bags, another 16 to the top of the drive
battle with the mater, well in that she had an arrhythmic faint and the carer and I had a battle to get her onto her feet and off to her bedroom, she sleeping for 3,5 hours while I battled away, as above.

[Tilly2]

Prudie, deadheading hydranges as is tomorrows job. Thanks for reminding me.

Emmie. I'll give the news section a miss, I think.

Mamya, I hope you get to eat by the water tomorrow. I was lovely.

2SP, can I join you in your shed doorway, please? What delightful way to spend the time.

[hereIam]

Yes been out for lunch, sat outside in the sunshine and had a lovely time. Dog came with us too.

[Tilly2]

Your battles have been more onerous than mine, DTC. What a day you've had!

[Tilly2]

Did your dog get some lunch, HereIam?

[DTCwordfan]

yes a glass of cold white wine when the sun passes the yardarm in twenty five minutes or so!

[EcclesCake]

What a lovely picture you've painted 2SP. I love lambs (hate sheep though) and their bleating is heartwarming.

[DTCwordfan]

someone probably doesn't like mutton or hogget?? ^

[2sp_]

You are all welcome to join me, bring wellies!

[hereIam]

Oh yes Tilly, we passed her the odd chip dipped in gravy and some steak and I took one of her favourite chewy sticks which she tucked in to ...

I love hogget DTC, my favourite of the sheep-meat age groups. ;-)

Hi, Tilly......I'll join you with 2sp.....did you take the school kids lambing?...We did and it was just fantastic....

I've had a day in the garden......lots going over what I've already done which is annoying....seems my fence broke after being damaged by the fencers doing next doors fence.....still I've borrowed a sprayer and I will spray it black.....I'm sure it'll be fine...

Scrubbed my wheelie bins for spring.....used to have bin cleaners call but they haven't been for years now......

And before we know it it'll be time to visit the ospreys......bliss...☺

[Eleena]

You've earned that Dt! Enjoy it! :0)

I have two lovely grey curly sheepskin rugs from the Swedish side of the family's sheep farm. I had a link to the camera in the lambing shed two years ago, it was the next best thing to being there and being hands on, which I would love.
Today we had a walk along the river in the sun, blooming cold but we wrapped up well and it was so nice to see blue sky and sunshine.
Back for a couple of Dark and Stormy cocktails, a nice meal and a cuddle on the sofa from the pup :)

[Tilly2]

I have wellies! I'll be there.

Steak and chips, HereIam? Lovely.

I had Chicken Caesar Salad. That was very nice.
