HI all, have got our Cara with me today because of the teachers being on strike.Enjoy the break Maz .

Good morning, was sunny earlier but very overcast now, I think my washing will be dry though by now thank goodness. Must pop out to pick my prescription up and get some potatoes.
We had a long spell of torrential rain last night, hope it's fine where you are xx

evening been a busy couple days . but successful

Hi~~

Hedges have been trimmed today, son has been giving it a go with the electric shears.
He's tall and fit as he works out most days, but found cutting the hedges a bit different from his work outs.lol
Still.. he did all the Laurel (whole length of the back garden) and the one conifer at the bottom.
I can't cut the conifer it brings me out in a rash. The hedge has a fungus and I would rather have it cut out, now he's clipped it it looks all brown. The one the other side is OK.
We have 2 conifer hedges at the bottom of the garden with and archway between. Hubby cut down a large shrub too.. I wasn't too pleased !
Will have to contact the council now for them to collect them.
They do a free 'Green' collection of garden cuttings , but you have to book it in advance.

morning all warm again here

Hi ~~~

It was pleasant earlier on but has clouded over bit now.
Hope son is going to cut other conifer hedge later.
Hubby took all the clippings to the recycling centre this morning, they were in heavy duty bags we wanted to keep.
I will book the Councils Green recycling for the branches he cut down, but they are just tied up with string, quite a lot..and why mess the car up when the collection service is free.

morning all we have a day off school today but I am working with support work later still its nice to have a morning in or part of it as once i start i will be doing the rounds ending at the supermarket to do the shopping

hello, lovely day here again.
T he gardener has cut the hedges at church, very long run of mixed bushes some of which are spiky with long thorns, don't know what they are called.
He scratched all his chest and arms and gave up half way through. Reckons he will do some more another time.
Maz, my friends, Gordon and Dorothy Stoves are starting their summer missions again this week. First at Pity me, then at Esh winning and the last one at Wolsingham. Keep the work in your prayers xx

hi there its amazing how quick the year has gone we have been hampered at wolsingham this year due to various issues at the moment the church is being rewired .so I will pray for that work as its important

Hi~~

Grey and overcast here, it was raining heavily earlier.
Phoned hubby for him to get some rolls for tomorrows lunch boxes.. he said he wasn't going out as it was pouring with rain there, but would pick some up from As*a on the way home .
Save me getting drenched in walking the 3 miles just for rolls.lol

just started to rain here, been lovely all day. Was much too hot to sleep last night and when I did drop off I had nightmares. Hope tonight is cooler.

morning well it is very dark and wet here and very warm lots of midgies around

mixed day weather wise. Got soaked this morning when walking the dogs because it had come down heavy through the night and the long grass was drenched. Managed to get washing dry but got wet again on lunch time walk. It faired up untill quarter past three when I picked Cara up from school and the heavens opened again.Took dogs out a while ago and it was that fine rain, I swear it waits for me to step outside .
Eau de wet dog is not too pleasant either, although I must say the rain does freshen everything up and cools the place down. :-)

Hi all~~

Cue for a song... 'Its raining again'
With this new paving we haven't got the huge puddles at the front of back of the house we used to get when we had heavy rain :-)

Lol
Paula.. eau de wet pooch ( however clean they are ) isn't the best :-)

We've had 2 short electric power cuts today ...again.
Peeps house alarms go wild, my PC kept going on and off and clocks went to standby.
All son's equipment was OK , it was all off.. and my clock on the the cooker was OK.
Must tell dau to check hers otherwise she'll be late for work ....again !
