Morning campers 👋

Has he played your request yet?

Sadly I couldnt find a way to get the station on my phone.

Good morning all.
Cold, wet and miserable day here.
Hospital has increased my medication to 4 drip bags per day. 1st one at 0600 (they are late as normal). Last one 22.00, last night they did it at 23.30.

Coooooeeeee. 14 deg overcast, blustery and generally not OK start to the day.

Stay safe peeps

Good morning all, it's been raining overnight and is due to be a cloudy day today.
MrsP is off to Trent Park wildlife rescue this morning and then out to lunch with her friends.
I will be out with the dig, and then carry on with the exercise regime.

Morning.
Grey and a bit damp. Not me, the weather.
Was hoping to do some more hedge trimming today, I made a start on the mammoth task that is our garden hedges after yesterdays ride.
Hopefully it dries up enough later.

 

[Drago]

I have risen!

Morning. A very long lie for me. It’s raining anyway and not due to go off until late afternoon.

Morning, diabetic eye screening today and I have to go by bus as no driving allowed after the drops put in.

Good morning from a grey and damp Dorset. I have caught up a couple of pages, good to hear that @Dave7 is on a ward now, and what a lovely man our Classic is to go and visit😎.
Mrs Tkk has expressed a wish for jasmine plants to adorn our native trellis but our local garden centre doesn't have any. I'm a bit reluctant to try online after reading several accounts of dead and broken plants arriving. Here's the space where Mrs Tkk had her shed. We've had new fencing and trellis and now she wants some climbers. Will put them in pots / planters, all suggestions appreciated 👍

The double fence faces North, the single west. Suny in the afternoon's and early evening.

Clematis?

 

[Binky]

Clematis?

I think you can get a cream for that...

 

[Tenkaykev]

Clematis?

I did look for that in the local garden centre, but being a bloke I couldn't find it...

These nurses are typical women.
One just said to me "can I take some blood"?
I said "no" but she took it anyway.
They have increased my medication, I am now on 4 lots of drips per day.
(Not sure if I've already told you that)
Edit
Yep, I did, sorry.
