Good afternoon , Muddles hope your foot is on the mend.  I have just been  watering Nematodes into the soil , I have so many slugs and can't use pellets because of the grandsons and also I would rather use a natural solution. I used Nematodes for the leather jackets that started to appear last year and they really worked and  got rid of them so I thought I would give the slug ones a go and hopefully they will work as well as the Leather jackets ones.
Today has been hot, I did some gardening and then sat and read this afternoon it is so nice being out in the sun but the forecast for next week is terrible.

Good morning, it is a lovely day here I have been in the garden all morning.

My mother is 95 on Monday but as most of her great grandchildren and grandchildren are at work on Monday we are giving her a party tomorrow morning then tomorrow night we are taking her out for a Chinese meal which is one of her favourites, on her actual birthday she  is having a group of friends round for coffee and birthday cake and in the afternoon  my niece and three of her children are going to see her along with my girls and my two little grandsons so it is all go!  

 

Party number one done and dusted, my mother loved every minute she is going to have a lazy afternoon and then tonight we are out for our Chinese meal . Tomorrow we start all over again with her friends coming for coffee and cake.
It is another lovely day but we have a weather warning for heavy rain and thunder and lightning later today . 

Good morning everyone.

Its another damp day here but I'm not sure if its raining now

I want to paint my air dry clay angel.

Evening all another wet day here. 

Starry I'm erring on the guy from Newquay, the family business. A timber construction with rubber roof and proper foundation, insulated etc. I did think about uPVC but it's so much more expensive and I don't feel inclined to spend that much on someone else's property, which this is. I'd like the uPVC but the timber one is a fraction of the cost and once it's painted white all over it'll look really nice. So I'm going to contact the company next week probably about coming to give me an updated estimate/quote. 

My foot is now back to normal, just very slightly tender so I was really lucky I didn't end up with several broken bones. 

The new tyres are brilliant, it was just over £528 but that included the tracking so not too horrendous and you can notice the difference to the ride.

I'm off to the garden centre on Thursday with Chloe and Jackie, we're expecting Suzanne to not bother to turn up but you never know. Jackie wants to get me a house plant as a thank you for helping her get her money back from Amazon, I gave her Bezos personal email and it was sorted and she had her money in her account within 12 hours. She'd been battling to get her money back for over a year. It was over £1,700 so she was over the moon to get it back. They also gave her £50 compensation for all the hassle it had caused, which she wanted to give me, but I told her I didnt want anything, I was just glad to help.
