When i have gardening to do
i have had some trees felled
and really need to clean my garden up
hedge to cut and grass to mow
looks like its a stay in and play on the Internet instead

tsk tsk ................ any excuse!!

a truly dedicated gardener wouldn't let a bit of rain stop them lol

No Joy
It always rains when I have to walk to the Drs
lol
Gets out wet weather crutch ready

get well soon MO
Anita i am not dedicated i can tell you

I AM A SELF CONFESSED FAIR WEATHER GARDENER

Joy Babes, my sentiments entirely. Our weatherman on local radio (he used to be in Eastenders) forecasted this rain yeasterday. So I cut off three seed heads from a hardy Arum Lily. I am now drying them out to give to a lady who grows plants and sells them from the roadside outside her cottage, for SCOPE.
We had planned, because OH has to go and pay his car insurance, to have a shopping trip to a nearby town. We are still going,despite the rain. In this town there is a W.H. Smith, so I can look for specials, eg. hardbacks on offer. There is also, probably the last of it's breed, a wool shop, which I particularly want to visit. I have decided that now the gardening season is practically at an end, to get out my crochet hooks for the winter afternoons. I am getting itchy fingers, and want to do something crative. There is also a couple of good charity shops that I love to visit. The town also boasts a much larger T****s than our town, and sells paperbacks, CD's and DVD's, so a time to stock up.
OH just come from his ofice and said it is 'wanging' it down - Derbyshire vernacular. But I am determinded to go. I do not get out much these days except to do the weekly M*******sons, but that is a necessity rather than a pleasure.
Lets hope it brightens up abit this afternoon.
Hav'nt had a good post for ages
Love to all

Hi Joy, leave you garden a mess, and tell all that is a wildlife sanctuary.

Why does it always rain when Iv'e just cleaned the windows,or oh has washed the car???

why does it always rain when iv got nothing to do

lmaooooooooooooo

well julia its still raining
stray and i went the local market for some sea food
and i have taken the baby to school as he asked me to
so its feet up by the fire till home time

Joy, glad you and stray and baby Satan managed to get out despite the weather
I managed my few hours out also. Lovely drive through a valley seeing the changing colours of the trees, and by then the rain had stopped. Got the knitting wool I was after, and which I am dying to start with. Also got a jigsaw and another new James Patterson novel, what a prolific writer, I seem to buy a new one of his each week. I got a couple of pots from the charity shop for my plants and a lovely little watercolour painting. All that spent before I hit T***co. Well that's me pension spent for this week, but I did enjoy it, just to get out, despite the dampness. Just had a lovely senior nap, before I start on the next job.
Take care all of you in the Boro
