Well was that the last cut of my grass for this year today?
Must admit the leaf and grass mixture looks good in the compost bins.

Dear Geoff, grass and leaves are a perfect mix, so much better than water and electric. :)

Dear Grockie, thankyou so much for your caring words. :twisted:

Funny, my washing machine also died last week. My new one has already been delivered and has a free 5 year guarantee, so should be £600 well spent! Next 7 weeks' pension should just about cover it - still I've plenty of veg and eggs so shouldn't starve!

not sure joy is the right word, the actual accounts arnt a problem, but we acumulate a box of "uninteresting" or "file that when ive got time " post which really needs dealing with more than once a year.... :D will have a nice fire later though, whatever happened to the paperless office we were supposed to be getting.

Evening richard p,
It seems that there has to be a paper trail for everything these days-and not the"Hare and Hounds"type :!:

OJ, for heavens sake do not say that you "broke the back" of the painting. :twisted:
