    I don't have a favorite soap.

    I enjoy them all.

    Yes but I'm. Very poor. Can't pay my bills and not in best of health

    evening all,

    Quiet day at the mill again, thankfully getting on top of all the places I need to change my name.

    Just received a refund from Tui and have ordered a few plants two special tubs for a small space I have just outside of my flat

    I think they should be big enough - 3 foot wide by 1.4 foot high.

    I’ve ordered a couple of roses to act as a centre piece, with a mix of hardy garden perennial’s, Lavender, two Brook Perennial Thistle’s with coloured rock solar lights and slate chippings.

    I just need to get a patio rocking chair, small side table, new mats leading up to the front door, a stone Buddha and a stone Ganesh as well as a few other ornaments.
    I think that it will be therapeutic and also restart the flame in this old gardener.
    If I’m not able to decorate the inside of my flat, then at least I can put some colour outside. I am hoping that the plants I have chosen will attract the bees 🐝

    In my younger years when I was an estate ranger & gardener for OMBC, a job I’ve always credited with being the best one for my body and mind. I was always happy be it in the private or public sector that I worked in Horticulture.

    I absolutely adore your choice in plant pots - very rustic. You should check out the 🌷🌸🌷Gardening Corner🌷🌸🌷 , maybe post them in once they're planted. I'd love to see them as I'm sure others will. 😊

    Thank You Holly,

    I can imagine they will smell great with them being old Whisky Barrels. Funny thing is, they probably weigh 20kg and the delivery driver will have to carry them 190 yards 😂

    I managed to get out for a few hours and watch bowls at thevlocal bowling club overlooking the sea in the sunshine.

    I can't wait for bed, a nightmare of a day … put up led **** light diffusers … led lights broke. Sprayed a cooker hood … paint reacted with the stainless steel, despite primer … tried to take a splash back off … it came off but so did some tiles 🤬

    The only good thing I've done today is wake up

    @Grumpy1314

    I love those, especially so as a whisky enthusiast. It's a great idea because whisky barrels can only be filled about half a dozen times and there's nothing that can be done with them, they can't really be recycled. The only thing I found a bit cheeky was that garden centres charge for them, usually like £40 or so…for something that's actually a liability to the distillery once finished with I think they should give them away, or at least maybe just charge for delivery

    I got two of them for £80, but I must admit I didn’t mind paying that. I see it as upcycling of a product that can be used for another purpose. I must admit, I don’t mind paying for that as you can pay that for a good bottle of single malt.

    Evening all. Feeling so so . It was busy at times but it was not as bad. Loads of people in the workshops etc...people were there checking on us on how we work etc.... But I do not think that mp was there. Maybe people from her team..

    It was better than getting depressed at home.

    I get more depressed when I am at home like now. Anyway tomorrow will be another day...
