I'm onto the drugs already, the pain in a bit numbed.

Did quite a bit yesterday. despite the torrential showers, typing a bit off due to bandage on left index finger.

The joys of a greenhouse.
It's dry and out of the wind & rain. :D
It's quiet and away from the phone.
It's now got four paving slabs laid inside the door and the gap to the left concreted. There is a step made of bits of sleeper after the slabs to go up six inches or so to paving in front of the end bed, not done yet.

The trials of a greenhouse.
Its dry, had to use a lump hammer and bolster-chisel to dig out the slope so I could lay the slabs, hence the index fingure. :twisted:
Cement dust does not blow away.


The next bit of paving is a freebie. Vandals pulled up a 2x2 and a 2x1 section of rubber safety matting from the playground and used it as flooring for a den in the bushes. The council replaced all the matting in the play area with a different type. Guess what got lugged out of the bushes into the greenhouse, where it fits perfectly. :D

Evening Bumcracks are we all groovy?

I've come in my Belly Dancing costume. Thought i'd try it out for Herby, since he's asked Piglet to bring him back some belly dancers from Egypt.

I've been to a conker tournament today with youngest ankelbiter. Cooked and had family visiting.

I'm sitting here now, all dressed up with a cup of tea listening to The Killers
Lots of love

Compo, for gods sake don't mix up your windows.

Would love to join you guys but I've got an hour's worth of ironing to do before I hit the sack.
Can't match Lizzie's belly dancing outfit, I'm afraid. Here in my dressing gown (have shaved my legs, though. :D )
