Sounds a bit like a desperate Dan type of thing.

Cow pie!

Preparing for painting tonight, the little bit of filling by the door has been sanded down, the woodwork has been cleaned and the surface has had a light sanding down.

Good morning. A bit dark, dismal, and windy at the moment here.

Good morning, another bright sunny and chilly morning. I've got some perennials I've put in late, Aquilegia's and Echinacea's and I'm trying to get established before the weather turns cold and I've just checked them and at the moment they are thriving.About three weeks ago I was in a local garden centre and brought an, Ajuga, black scallop, not a variety I've seen before but they are a lovely dark plant, and I've noticed its in flower.

You can get some cream for that.

Quite dark here.
Supposed to be playing golf but after getting soaked last Thursday I will give it an hour then decide.

Off to Looe and Polperro this morning. Still shorts and T shirt weather by the look of it.
Nice walks yesterday at Restormel castle and Siblyback lake.

13th century and it's quite well preserved. Very interesting site.
The Duloe stone circle is Bronze Age.

It looks an amazing place to visit.

It was very interesting......and we had pensioners rates to get in.
Lostwithiel is a nice little place, I could live there.
