On another thread, (about hijacking threads, if you want to find it) this was suggested as a potential thread title - each post to have nothing whatever to do with the previous one I though that a very good idea, but no-one seems to have taken it up and started one, so here goes. Not a conversation, no sequencing, totally non sequiturs.

Supermarket potatoes are sprouting faster than I can cook and eat them!

I love this thread.
So many different things going on.
There’s very little chance of a crossed post.
I get ideas -I never thought of a kneeler to help me weed
Other people besides me buy plants- then need to find time to plant them.
No lectures.
The only downside is I’d like to follow some posts up to find out what happens.???

Blackbirds are territorial and confrontational with each other, but timid and retiring with other species of birds. Something I've had time to observe during lockdown.

restraint to follow rules.

Back in bed after dentist appointment for two fillings. I used to go back to work after!

A red letter day. First time on a bus since March 2020. And the first ever outing for my shiny new bus pass. smile

Imho trying to get tradesmen to commit to a time is quite a difficult task.

To try to get them
(In my case electrician and gas fitter) to coordinate with each other is nigh on impossible. <sigh>

The gentle breeze coming in my window is wonderful.

Am I the only one who hates the Zoflora ad??

Care in the community, don't make me laugh!

One minute I'm boiling now it's chilly. Annoying weather. I miss winter.

Am I bored enough to go to bed, I wonder?

I was relieved to see Monty had planted his sweet peas out too, and it wasn’t just me being over-optimistic.

My sister is out of hospital at last.

Hurray, it’s Saturday! Why does the word ‘Saturday’ look strange if I stare at it?

Oopsadaisy1 Sat 24-Apr-21 06:57:43

grandmajet because it’s got Turd in the middle of it.

Why am I woken up by DDs dog every morning just after 5am, but when the dog isn’t here and I could sleep later I wake up anyway at 5.30 ?

I have just seen an excellent video on Gransnet to help with improving balance. Demonstrated by a very likeable person and I really enjoyed watching it BUT I have just got up to go to the kitchen and my balance is no better! What am I doing wrong??????? Do you think I need to watch it more than once? confused

Porridge with raspberries and honey is truly delicious.

There was a dead mouse on my front steps this morning.
Dropped by an owl overnight maybe? Or a warning from the Mafia?

I’ve just finished my 30 minute online test for a national research study looking at brain and cognitive function. Off for a lie down in a dark room. shock

Balance on one leg ( alternating) while you clean your teeth. I minute each leg.
