Glorious Saturday!


What a lovely day! I hope everyone is able to enjoy the sunshine - don't forget the sun protection though.

Just the day for a barbecue!

See you later alligators!

Re: Glorious Saturday!


Such a lovely day! Just been out with the little stray dog again, making the most of the sun and letting her burn off some of her pent up energy.
Imogen is up on the windowsill, sunbathing. Her incision is looking a little red so I'll have to keep an eye on that today.
Will have to brave the supermarket at some point today-it's our anniversary today so I'm going to cook a nice dinner, not sure what yet!
Have a good day everyone.

Re: Glorious Saturday!


Hooray for wireless! Here I am in the garden (esconsed under a giant parasol and slathered in factor 50)
It's mighty hot but I'm not complaining - yet! Have the ceiling fan on in the bedroom and have brought my chillow back into service.
We had a rush of blood to the head yesterday afternoon and moved the (pretty big) fig tree from a large pot on the decking to a spot in the garden. Had to dig a large hole and remove the dead stump of a maple tree which the builders stupidly planted in the corner - much too big! We'd cut it down and put stump killer on several years ago but had forgotten it was still there beneath the shingle/gravel. Phew! Anyway, it's done now, I think the fig will actually be better there, even though it's not the sunniest spot, and there is much more space on the decking.
After all that, a lazy Saturday sounds good.
Lamb kebabs from the barbecue with salad and new potatoes for tea/dinner/supper (!) tonight - nibbles and plenty to drink for the rest of the day.

Re: Glorious Saturday!


What a brilliant day we're going to Thorpe Park! The kids are really excited and so are me and Ann! Just hope we've got enough sun cream! The pets are not enjoying the weather as much though, they all are lying on the floor, half asleep! But finnaly it seems for the first time in ages we have a proper summer coming!

Re: Glorious Saturday!


Summer's come????? Simply gorgeous here and the temperature is rising...

Have been to the hairdressers this morning, have a last minute check to do in the suitcases before they're locked, give the garden a good watering this evening and then wait patiently for our son-in-law to pick us up at midnight to take us to the Coach station to catch the overnight coach to Gatwick.

We took Cassie to the cattery yesterday and she'd been given one of their new pens with a view out onto a field....... she jumped straight onto the shelf by the open mesh window to view the birds, butterflies etc.. I know that will keep her occupied for hours!

I hope the weather stays good for all of you!

Re: Glorious Saturday!


What a lovely day - my brother headed off at about 10 as he decided to stay over - he is SO good with the boys, which is really nice for them! The server crashed so OH had to go to the office for a bit and when he returned we wandered into town and are just back. Got a car-shaped paddling pool for the boys but OH realized his pump was in the Porsche (which is in a body shop in Slough) so has just run out to get another.

Will pop to the allotment later this afternoon once it's a bit cooler to check on everything, spray beans and apples for blackfly and water anything green!

Other than precious little planned - might have a barbecue later

Re: Glorious Saturday!


Afternoon all, lovely day here, I am feeling miserable with this bloody cold but am off to sit in the sunshine for a few hours before I have to work again. Going to my sisters this evening for a few drinks. Cats are already out sunning themselves.
Have a lovely day in the sunshine every one.
Mags, have a fantastic holiday xxx

Re: Glorious Saturday!


A very bright, blue sky here today. Quite a few things now need watering in the garden and some of the bedding that we put in definitely needs a drink. OH is thinking about getting the ladders out and cleaning the windows (can't remember when we last saw a window cleaner round here) so, all in all it must be Summer!

We've got baby blue-tits flitting around the garden now, they don't seem to have quite mastered their wings yet though, their flights are "kinda wobbly" as Thumper said to Bambi.

Enjoy the rest of the day and remember the sunscreen!

Re: Glorious Saturday!


Hiya allGorgeous day here, been in the garden and done a little cutting and tying back and give the pots/baskets etc a feedgiven Sal a bath to hot to take her out in the afternoon...although I have seen quite a few out with dogs dragging them out why is it always the dogs that don't see the light of day that get dragged out in the sun...shame.My brother and his family are back from Disney Land/World not sure which in France...he was sayng how expensive it is there the 6 of them (remember one is a baby of 14 weeks now ) so two adults and three children under 12 to eat £190 in a not posh place....*what* but they really enjoyed it. The plan was USA but with the unexpected addition of Lizzie then they decided on the shorter flight to France. The kids loved it Molly adored the fairytale Princesses.... and the castle...Taylor and Lewis loved everything Lewi was allowed on more rides than they thought, he will follow his Dad and be kinda short then just sprout up.....but he loved the rides. Oh the baby is called Lizzie....for short.Karen
