Good morning everyone from a frosty but bright Essex by the sea.
DH will spend the day working on his boat, I have ironing, bed changing and washing to do. I will also make a shepherd's pie for dinner.
Have the best Wednesday you can and stay safe and well everyone xx

Urms, globe artichokes are delicious. It’s a shame you haven’t tried them. They are called “alcachofa” in Spanish: very popular in Andalusia. I really don’t like Jerusalem artichokes. Quite a different kettle of fish!

Good morning all from a chilly but dry North Leicestershire.

Carer's course for me this morning. DH will drive me as we are still without my car. There is a shortage of parts apparently.

Wolfie was lively but tiring yesterday

Lovely to see harri yesterday.

Good morning everyone from south Manchester where it’s dry and seems milder. We are off out again to mind L’il Miss for the day. Hopefully she’s turned a corner, last day of antibiotics and might be in school tomorrow. A nice short week for her.

I think I’m starting with toothache in a molar but as I’m a devout coward I’m going to ignore it and see how things go.

Glad you got your phone sorted Mick. Bet that surprised you. I’ve never bought or eaten artichokes grandMattie their appearance puts me off!

Enjoy Wednesday all who can. Hope your eye test went better than you feared yesterday Susan56. x

Good Morning everyone from Severnside. The sky is pink. It’s dry and cool.
I’m glad you’ve sorted your phone Mick.

I must remember to message my brother today, head like a sieve yesterday afternoon ?
After breakfast I’ll decide whether to go out and look for a sweeping brush and maybe a garden centre visit and do my best not to buy anything. I already have some plants in pots that need a permanent home.

Chicken for me too Mattie.
Take care all ??

Morning Mock and all

Pinky washed Sky here in S E Essex.

Off to the gym this morning, but first it’s bed changing and washing machine on. Need to sort out a plethora of parcels which arrived at work for me yesterday, by having a quick look I think there are duplicates!!

Keep safe and well folks ?‍♀️?

Good morning from a dark E Kent. I hope today unfolds as beautiful an autumn day as yesterday!
Glad you’ve solved your phone problems, Mick.
Last night we ate the very last globe artichokes. They were delicious. We have about 10 plants dotted around the very small garden partly because DH likes to grow them from seed, and partly because I find them very architectural and love the leaves.
Today, I’m going to the hygienist. We may go to check on Philip’s house. The insurance conditions are that we visit once a week…
I think I’ll make a chicken tagine for dinner, I love couscous, but DH doesn’t. ?
May today bring sunshine ☀️ into your lives and lift any burdens. Carpe diem. ?????

Good Morning Everyone,
Its dark , but dry and less windy this morning, but could be colder outside here in Brackley.
Today, small shop etc , nothing spectacular planned , I think my phone problem is a mute one , and hopefully I have unmuted it so people can hear me on the phone.
Must have pressed the wrong key in error over the weekend last.
Take Care,
Mick
