The FastDay Forum

Oh how I wish my bras were baggy in the cup

Well, I'm back from my coffee out! The one good thing about Padstow and my diet, Phil, is that I don't like pasties (sorry!). Ooh but the fish pie? Man Alive! I shall be returning tomorrow to taste again...even includes mussels in their shells...yummy (sorry if you're fasting today!)

Is it really hot where you are today? It's boiling here

Bean

Grey, overcast and cool here. Even the bee's aren't out. I say that because I want to count them for the great bee count. I have had two on my thyme flowers so far today, which is very poor as I am in deepest darkest Herefordshire, very rural. There should be more of them. Mind you, the budlija hasn't come into flower yet so there is hope for more.

We need to plant lots of lavender in our gardens don't we!

I have lavender, but its not doing brilliantly yet as there hasn't been any decent dry days so far. My chives have all flowered, the thyme is flowering, general garden flowers are lupins, aqualigia, all sorts of bedding plants and some of the bushes are budding.

Just got back from my multiples group and am about to get changed and head down to the beach. Lovely and sunny here I would love to be lazing with a book but there's a whole lot of stripes that want painting; between not being able to face it, the weather and more recently urgent sugarcraft (finished now, phew!) this is the first time I will have picked up a brush since May bank holiday. I was mid stripe when we found out that we had lost our cat so it's hard not to be sad today

Julie, I have that same feeling about my cake room. Between projects it gets used as a dumping ground and gets messier and messier until working in there requires a total tidy up. Mine WAS tidy until last night (I've been working on an exhibition piece) but then I had to mess things around to fit a large table display in and four ladies to help me mock it up Ho hum.

Off to the beach hut I go.

Sorry, but I'm not that chatty right now. My head is full with perspective hip replacement, referrals and whatnot..... Ha, it's so typical me, but I don't even have an appointment with a orthopedic surgery yet.....and I am scared shitless and I'm not that easily scared....

Well today is my wonderful, beautiful first "born" sons 18th birthday. Nope we don't get to celebrate it with him, it's party time in Norrköping. and who can say anything about that??

I thought I'd duck in here and say "hi!" We had a stormy evening last night and today is gloomy with some showers passing through now and then.

I wish you well @Wolfie! It is a big deal, but just think how much better you will feel when it is done. My mom put hers off, and wished she hadn't!

Take Care all!

Just popping in to say what a lovely day it is today! Going to sit out in the garden, admire my lavender (I planted it last October and it's doing really well) and roses and enjoy the sunshine.

@rawkarenjust heard the lovely song,San Francisco..wear some flowers in your hair...
Brings back such fab 60s memories for me..
And of course,made me think of you..how you doing? How is OH? How is SanFran? X

Eh up all; repetition, hesitation and deviation seems to be the order of the day in the world of football mania. Already bored brainless by the clichéd hype continuously drivelling out of the mouths of so many highly paid permanently seated all-male 'pundits'.
I may have Wimbledon coming to save me but I hope it doesn't clash with dratted football ... Tennis must prevail!

AB@AzureBlue i have neighbours who are watching in the garden,two gardens away..a projector screen up on their garden wall..
have to keep my windows closed so i dont have to hear commentary,loud shouts,groans,cheers,guffaws etc..i DETEST having the windows closed.
I hope they freeze out there,its now dark and chilly! X
