Good morning everyone.

Grey day here but at least its dry.

Try putting some Christmas lights on the scaffolding Starry - then you will be sure they will need taking down before its removed 

Sounds like you are very busy Hazel 

Afternoon all. Wet today, but I dont mind as I managed to plant all my bulbs by yesterday and Larry nipped round the lawn in dry weather. 
Carol I posted your ear tensioners at lunchtime, so should be with you by tuesday have sent you a pm explaining whats in the package. Poor Brodie LOL Maybe a fox has buried something in your garden and he's found it. Thats usually why they suddenly start digging, although Dora and Gizmo keep digging at the edge of the patio and there's nothing there, they've now exposed the boundary wire for the mower, so I have to keep going out and checking its not broken and filling the hole again. Not sure what they're eating, maybe grubs or something. Dora loves eating dandelions and if there aren't any in the lawn because Larry's cut them off she'll dig down and find the root and eat that. Weird creature. But as Dandelions are medicinal I don't mind her eating them. 

Still hectic with mask making and also matching bow ties and bandanas for pets pffft.... 

Starry good idea to still keep up the social distancing over christmas, I heard today the first vaccine announced will be ready to roll out at christmas. Great news the mans arrived to fix the leak and good idea to leave the scaffolding up for a while. 

Diane did you manage to get to the hairdressers before this lockdown? 

Keep safe everyone. Back to the sewing machine for me. 

That hair dresser in Lanivet is dreadful Diane. Expensive and not that good either. Have  you tried Blush in Bodmin? Thats where I used to go to, very good prices and excellent hairdressers. Plus you can park right outside, they're down near the Factory Shop and the vets.  Can't recommend them enough. 

Well it's been dry today but the grass is still wet. I've had Larry out cutting the grass, so I'll have to give him a good clean up underneath before he goes into hibernation. 

Had a lazy day today really, for a change. I'm hoping Carol got her bits from me today, hopefully. 

Take care people and stay safe. xxx

Good morning everyone.

Its grey and damp outside although not sure if its still raining.

This virus has a lot to answer for Starry. Its made life so much more difficult            for too many folks.

Evening all, or morning when you read this. 
Been up to my eyes with mask orders but thankfully this w/e I can relax. I potted up all my spring bulbs yesterday as it was nice outside, and today my Queen Elizabeth roses and hardy geraniums arrived, so I'll have to sort them out tomorrow.I was going to take it easy as I pulled a muscle lifting the bulb containers yesterday. 
I bet your tree with the lights looks very cheery Starry. I've bought 2 light up reindeers to go out the front and will be putting them out there next week. Already got fairy lights up at the 2 front windows LOL 

Good to hear Cornwall is in Tier 1 of lockdown rules. Our infection rates are dropping rapidly, although seeing as people from Tier 3 can come down here and the guest houses and camp sites are already advertising for them to come, the numbers will be going up again in a couple of weeks and we'll be in Tier 2 or 3. Absolutely ridiculous to allow people to travel from one tier to the next. 

I saw the idiots in London demonstrating against lockdown and fighting the police. They're not all low lifes there's a lot of professional people amongst them, you'd think they'd have more intelligence ranting about there's no such thing as covid its all made up, and wearing a mask and lockdown is against their civil liberties and taking away their freedom. They want issuing with a card exempting them from NHS treatment when they come down with covid, and not considered for vaccination as they're so against it. Just can't understand their thinking, morons the lot of them, and putting innocent people at risk by their selfish actions. 

Carol I sent those tensioners off about 10 days ago 1st class so you would have got them the next day. Can you let me know if they've arrived or not? Its a large A5 envelope with a printed postage label on the front. 

Keep safe everyone!
