I didn't get my shed painted. Ran out of time and energy!

Lona Tue 17-Jun-14 20:05:12

Welcome Davestan. It`s been a lovely warm, sunny day here, nice to go out minus coat for a change, even if it was to spend time at the hospital.

Good afternoon everyone and welcome davestan I`m a newbie too. Very hot and sunny in N Ireland dare I say it "too hot for me".

This morning at my painting group but no inspiration same as most of the others as well we were all `too damned hot`.

Good afternoon - another lovely sunny and warm day here.

Had a chap come to the house this morning to give a quote for looking after the garden (other chap has decided he prefers doing DIY) and he tried to do a 3-point turn in my road with is a very narrow road and the entire wheel came off his truck! His truck was literally across the whole road blocking off entrance and exit - drivers were not pleased. He had to wait for an hour for the AA and then the AA turns up on a motorbike - he isn't going to tow that truck far with that!

About 30 mins later, another vehicle came and dragged the truck onto a flatbed so at least it's been moved. I felt so sorry for the chap, he won't be able to work for a couple of days now.

Welcome, davestan!

As phoenix says, it is a beautiful day here in Devon. We are off to a celebration with the Rotary Club of Tiverton this afternoon, then down to visit another club in Kingsbridge this evening. Looking forward to it all - nice to be a bit more mobile, even if I can't yet drive. But wine!!!!

Good morning all and welcome to davstan. Grey and overcast here today and from what I can see it looks as if the coast is cloudy too.

davestan Tue 17-Jun-14 11:27:30

Hi Harrigran!
Many thanks your 'welcome'.
Being disabled & housebound can be difficult to keep in touch with people but am hoping this online chat will help.
Take care & enjoy.
Dave

Good morning, grey here again but it will probably improve because it did yesterday.
Welcome davestan.

Good morning!

Just finished my on-line shop - and had a text to say Duncan the Cairn is better and now eating so the drip did the trick hooray! Pick him up later and £400 lighter - oh well
Try to do what I didn't do yesterday
Diet menu today is
Fish soup for lunch
Lamb steaks marinated in minty garlic and salad for supper
haven't got the calorie count in front of me though but both will be below 400

AlieOxon Tue 17-Jun-14 10:18:06

Mornin' all.
Cloudy/bright/breezy here. Shopped. Washing on. Water tomatoes next. Ring the garage. Think about some other things I am not doing yet!

annodomini Tue 17-Jun-14 09:24:42

Bright and breezy in NE Cheshire. Suspect that the pollen count will again be very high. sad

Lona Tue 17-Jun-14 09:24:38

Good morning and welcome Dave.
It's looking hopeful sunwise, and I'm trying to get enthusiastic about actually doing something!
I did have a busy day yesterday (in my defence), trawled round shops and bought new bedding. Washed it all, and last weeks bedding, dried it, and did a large pile of ironing!

Hope you all have a sunny one sunshine

Another blue sky sunny morning in East Renfrewshire.

Indulging in my favourite pastime at this time of year, coffee in the garden and just strolling round and inspecting the progress of shrubs and flowers.

Have a good day everyone.

Good morning all and hello to davestan, a beautiful day here in North Ayrshire, the sea is blue and DH and I will be making the most of the sunshine today!
Have a lovely day everyone!

Oldgreymare Tue 17-Jun-14 08:47:21

Morning All and davestan welcome.
Sun has just appeared here as the breeze (refers to Beaufort scale and realises it is more than a breeze) has blown away the clouds!

davestan Tue 17-Jun-14 08:33:14

Hi all! I'm Dave & a 'newbie' & would love to get stuck in & chat with anyone who might be interested. So, have a nice day & enjoy!! xxx

Gagagran Tue 17-Jun-14 08:27:50

Morning all! The sun is out here is SE Hampshire but there are still plenty of clouds too. The forecast is good though.

DH and his chum are going to Arundel on their bikes today to watch the Sussex v. Yorkshire cricket. As a born and bred tyke, DH will of course be willing on the white rose boys.

I might sort out some paperwork which has been waiting patiently for attention. I also need to dead-head some roses. Meanwhile I'll have a cup of coffee and think about it.

Happy days everyone! sunshine

ninathenana Tue 17-Jun-14 08:21:57

Morning all.

We don't have the promised sunshine in N.Kent it's also quiet breezy.

kittylester Tue 17-Jun-14 08:13:28

Good morning!

A bright start to the day here in North Leicestershire but then it clouds over [confused

Today, I am going to see the hat hire lady and to buy some new underwear! This afternoon I'm going to get my feet done and catch up on village gossip!

How was your journey Nellie?

Enjoy your days everyone!

nannotgran Tue 17-Jun-14 07:48:07

Another grey day here in essex but I think it will be nice later
more gardening for me

PRINTMISS Tue 17-Jun-14 07:44:36

Good morning everyone, a misty sun here on the south coast, and the forecast is that it will be a hot day. A bit undecided what to do, bowls or the garden which is really getting on my nerves at the moment. A cup of tea will help the decision I think. Enjoy your days.

Nelliemoser Tue 17-Jun-14 07:31:51

Sunny and bright in South Cheshire. My weather forecast suggests make the most of the sunshine cloudy later.

My kettle has boiled and I am off for a brew.
