Do you damnedest! But we warned; I don't bite, I just sulk! But onwards...

Today's started lovely and sunny (after yesterday's rain) and the lawn is threatening to take over, so I'm going for a potter to see if it's dry enough to cut. I'll probably get sidetracked by weeding though. The garden's manic at the moment, a combination of rain and sun over the last couple of weeks has accelerated growth. Oddly though, the walnut tree is looking a bit sleepy still. It's starting to come into leaf but it seems late. Friends have lost their walnut tree, so I hope it's not disease.

A word of warning if I may.
We seem to have a good number of old farts with motor homes etc. Dont be tempted to give out your address or you may find yourself invaded by certain members ^_^.
I, however, can be trusted. So if you wish to pm me your address and my sleeping arrangement I have 3 weeks spare at flexible dates :rolleyes:

It's unreal you have only lost one epl game this season and you could still lose out.
I will definitely be in the red camp on june 1st.:okay:
I have just been reminded that the last time Liverpool clinched the title.....on the same day, Warrington played Wigan in the cup.
Today.......Warrington are playing Wigan in the cup.
AND......I have a bet on Liverpool doing the double. A whole £2.00 @ 100/1.

Doggie walk done. Got accosted by groups of Grockles on the Burrows, asking for directions to the beach - I suppose it's that time of year again.:rolleyes:

And of course you, being a grumpy local, smiled.
Then pointed them in the wrong direction ^_^

Morning all, I know I should be out on the bike on a day like this, but, tonight I am out at a gig to see Creedance Clearwater Revisited, so I thought I had better stay home with MrsP during the day:smooch:. Plus, it keeps me out of the pub a lunchtime. the dog has been walked and now I am doing a bit of tidying up in the garden.
How do I spell "yucky" :wacko:

My word, I do seem to have rather a large number of dandelions in my lawn. Where did they all come from?

I'm afraid that I'm going to be very busy removing them and so will be unable to entertain visitors and their motorhomes! ;)
