I've gone down with man flu.
Bugger!

Sorry to hear that. I share your sentiments. Get well soon.

We could have thunderstorms and lightning today. Another day for slobbing i think. It might be another day for making cake as well.

It's all right down here in Essex. I've got a new Brooks C17 saddle I'm putting on this morning. Then I'm off to try it out. Enjoy your cake

Thanks. I do love Brooks saddles. I hafe a B67s and it is womderful. I suffered so much on other saddles to the point of not wanting to ride my bike at all, then i tried the Brooks and wow. What a differance. You either love or hate them. I clearly have a brooks bum.

Beautiful sunny day. Harvested enough rhubarb for three crumbles - all in the oven now, two for freezer, one for tonight. Time to plant out my curly kale and Cavolo nero today.

Anyone got any good recipes for Pak Choi? I've grown this for the first time in years and we seem to have an awful lot. I'm going to try freezing some but I'm not convinced about that!!

Asparagus by the ton but that's less of a problem

Never tried Pak Choi so can't help you there.

Kitchen cleaning for me this morning. Still have the floor to do yet.

Very humid and muggy now, so i think we will def be having a storm today.

OK, I'll bite. Why are you spraying the conifers with washing up liquid? Please don't tell me that they need washing.

They were looking a bit dirty, I thought everybody did that.


In truth a person with more knowledge than myself suggested it help get rid of the bugs that create the brown area's in the hedge, we shall see.

Beam bushes replaced on the Pension Book Special. Grass cut. Dog walked. 40 pints of pilsner now brewing. Showered. Collapsed in a heap.
