Nah, was doing more labels for the cards,
96 labels done, 9 to go LOL.
All sorts of potting up plants going on this morning, moving up pot sizes and plicking out seedlings into trays as well.
Compost needed again:laugh:
I even cooked up some Bolognese..
Busy Bob:cuppa:
And then you've the young un licking the stamps?
150 headed your way.
Have you enough pots for the job in hand, or will further shopping trips be required.
Any horses nearby.
And I bet you left none.
After a meal, relax and put yer feet up for an hour or so.

I sort them into countries and batch them up and send the package to a distribution centre and they dispatch cards all over the world.
They sort any incoming into callsign groups, they go to volunteer 'managers' who send them out, 6 SAEs are required to be sent to them for incoming cards..
Was at Morrisons earlier, have to say impressive range of plants, quality quite good but if I remember it is Thurs delivery to shop.
I like the bargain bucket plants, most times, a wee prune here and there and some love and they bounce back...
No room for any more plants at the Towers:cuppa:

You don't post them individually, having to address each card then. Save on the postage stamps and put off the writers cramp.
No "local" supermarket nearby, or do you prefer what used to be a Yorkshire store?
You don't prune them in store!
Suppose after doing so you didn't like it. They'd never sell them.
You could always move your fences during the night, waking up to a larger garden.

Nope, I sent 1.7 kg at the beginning of last year, a lot :laugh:
I'll 250 to send next batch, must weigh.
Apparently I can only send 1.5 kg per counter every 12 months..
The bulk of cards come from Germany
Out of the 103(?) I received, 60 odd ver from der fatherland, jah^_^

Nah, pick the best of the sorry bunch and bring them home and prune etc.
Enough garden to go on with, hut to paint/treat next....

Owdo
By an odd coincidence, it's sunny here as well. Freaky Friday maybe?
Wasn't last Friday the morning after the day before. Where you plonked yerssen down, refusing to move, even for chocolate.

Would that be East or West Germany. You still in touch with your paymasters, using microdots on the cards to pass details of the secret IrnBru recipe over.
Non from or to contacts further afield.

Most folk bring the odd one or two, you?
Still not got that shed finished! How long has it been now.

Morning. I have bimbled before the mojo escapes again! :laugh: Still a bit nippy on the tootsies but a gorgeous morning.
Pretty strong easterly out there, I diverted from my original plan, spent 17 miles doing back paths, single track roads around the local area.
I got attacked by a small mutt, 'It's okay, it's only wanting to play', the usual, it chased me for about over quarter a mile:laugh:
Not taking any chances...

Yeah, seven days ago..
It would take something for me not to move for chocolate,
told you all before I'm a tart when it comes to chocolate :cuppa:
East and west under the same umbrella now,
I remember sending the East national SW station a signal report and then got constantly bombarded with propaganda,
The paper they used was honking,
everything received straight in the bin..
Had the same from Radio Moscow,
I may have been on a list or two..:laugh:

Mostly EUR this time round...
Sheds complete, it just needs a coat of something..
Jeez, absolutely hissing in the Tour of the Alps locale

A bit of a breeze here, removing any benefit of a sunny day.
It's the small ones that can do the damage.

Aye, one whole week.
You ran out last week, just when it would have been really needed, didn't you.
Gatherer mode on, all required supplies in hand then plonked yerssen down.
Chocolate tart, is that actually possible.
East Germany would be closer to the border though.
I knew they were in regular contact, did they pay you well. Russian chocolate any good, or did you demand only the best.

You'll have it done in an afternoon. Starting it will be the hard part.

Stands to reason, they're closer to it than we are, in them thar hills.

More the decision of what to use,
prefer a clear coat to retain the look.
but what? LOL

I just prefer our type of chocolate,
find some of the tadeonal EUR ones pretty bland TBH.

I better stay pals with Beag, apparently a trip to a local karate academy next week.
It'll be ninja moves.....

Some of those Cuprinol products are little better than water, only more expensive.

Back to the IrnBru I see.

Captain Chaos, what's your super powers then?

Just having a browse around ebay and came across this bike

For a bike that has very clearly had a whole host of upgrades the seller sure hasnt left much detail in the description. Any serious bike enthusiast wouldn't hesitate to list all their upgrades on their bikes which leads me to believe that it is highly likely the bike stolen or that the auction itself is a scam and the seller doesn't actually have the bike in his possession but used random pictures from the internet or another auction which may have been successful in scamming someone.

Be fair, they do have 100% feedback.

Sure that has been elsewhere, just can't remember where.
