Was raining heavily overnight & still raining (not so heavy) this morning but appears to have stopped now but not sure how long for. The garden is flourishing, everything is green (well except the forsythia - a mass of yellow- & the magnolia - a mass of white with pink) & even got the odd rosebud out!!! Don't usual get roses until late April/May. The first one is usually a climber on a north facing wall called Maigold. Haven't checked that side of the house yet! Trouble is the lawns ae growing (too) well but can't get them mown as they are too wet, the dry days do dry them but then the rain comes before I can mow them!!!! That's very early for a rosebud. I will check mine. I'm disappointed that I lost all of my potted tulips from last year. Lupins and foxgloves are growing really well though. I grew both from seed last year, so I'm looking forward to them flowering. I've bought a lovely outdoor stone pot for my next door neighbour's birthday (19th) and I'm filling it with foxgloves because they are her favourite flowers. Some of the plants in the greenhouse are about 6 inches tall, so won't take too long to grow and flower.

Sooo all the pin dots l did just the one colour so far and have had 2 coats, might need a 3rd 🤦♀️ Once im happy with no.8 l can the move onto more pin dots , no.9 very close shade to 8 hence having to do seperatly . Or l wont know which are 8 and which are 9 when it comes to 2nd and 3rd coats.
Then l just have 6 and 7 again very close in colour. Good thing is .. noone can possibly paint that smaller dot and stay in the lines 🤪 so it's a bit slap dash but wont matter or show ( l hope ) 🤯😂😂❤️

I'd put a notice on the bins just in case.

We had a leg of lamb on Easter Monday. It wasn't cooked in the air fryer but it was gorgeous.

It's all coming together now chantel. Good luck for your hubby on Monday, he'll be glad to get the surgery out of the way.

Well we have a new plastered back wall now , it looks so much better, and he even touched up little bits around the bedroom and did all around the window frame. So it just needs to dry out properly now before papering. We should have been having it done next week but we are going to give it chance to dry out properly and hubby is having his surgery Monday so wouldn’t be able to move the bed forward and I can’t with my back.
The plaster wasn’t too damp so we didn’t invade Freddy’s room 😻

Well a very wet and a miserable day today.☔️I was hoping to take the pooches a walk before I leave for work and before the Guy comes to plaster the bedroom. Don’t think there’s much chance of that , I’m in a hour earlier today and tomorrow but at least I get Friday off 😀 Silly question but … if roof area leaking , and we have a few days ahead of rain , wont the New plaster get damp and damaged again ? XNo scallywag the roof isn’t leaking now it’s the wall above the curtain rail on my side that was covered in mould and damp , and rotten. The guttering on the outside should have been lined and then painted but the plasterer went up yesterday and had a look for us and it doesn’t look like it was lined when they did the new roof , they only painted it , so when the roofers eventually come out hubby will be having that argument with them😡
