Thank you so much Woolly I and DH have laughed our heads off at it

My brothers ex seems to think he can use my Dad's car to take the girls to see her Saturday, 2 hours away!! We have no idea how seriously she's taking this, so no clue who she's been seeing, plus my brother has asthma, she has no overnights either.

My brother doesn't live with my parents either.

PJ that's a total nono as you know. Think she's nuts at best and a really nasty piece of work at worst your poor brother
Of course the car could be out of order

You know PJ cars that haven't been used since Boris told us all to stay at home MIGHT have flat batteries and won't start. 🤭

Ha I can assure you she doesn't care, all she cares about is herself, I might tell Dad to remove his battery

Do it PJ

Mum just rang , she's pissed off because Bob has gone to bed and put the telly off lol , she said he's moody and miserable, I think he was probably just tired after running around looking after Mum all day poor bgr . DH says it's because she is missing her house . l think it's because she is spoilt and likes her own way , we shall see

Oh dear, poor Bob lol, he obviously knows when he's tired, good for him!!

Mrs, you nailed it: she's a fucking fruit loop.

Woolly, I hope you endured enjoyed the performance!

I've been busy cross stitching tonight. It feels like I'm getting somewhere now!

Hi folks. Busy rocking the night shift although we are not really busy this evening.

268

Morning. I'm still tucked up in bed for now! I'm going to miss getting up at the same time as the kids when I'm back in the office!

I've no idea what the weather is like but I know it's meant to be dry!

My broad beans are popping through now. I'll be able to put them in the ground soon (it was too wet when I sowed them). I'm debating doing another tray of them. My peas are almost all through too. I definitely need two more trays of those! I could fill the whole allotment with peas and it wouldn't be enough!

I don't envy you night shifts, why!

why i nearly got up at 3 again, so we could have had a chat. sorry - i rolled over instead

Mrs poor old Bob. The grass wasn't greener then

PJ hope your Bro is ok. She sounds deranged. Is she not aware of a TV programme called the news?

It's raining here. Nothing beats a rainy day when you come home from night-shift. Snuggling down whilst everyone else is up. A win.

Hmmm. Forecast says 7% chance of rain. It's raining!

My allotment trip at lunchtime is no longer needed! Maybe we'll scoot in the park - if it's quiet - instead (we live opposite a big park).

Boots, she accused him of making up those awful storms as an excuse not to travel the other month! She's thick as fuck as well.

It's really sunny here but frosty. Sunday is going to be sunny and 17°!

I'm just lying on my bed having a coffee. Have had a shower and got dressed.

There seems to be (at least) one in every family. I had an Uncle Knob Head. He was physically abusive not only to his own sons, but me too. A pigheaded, arrogant, selfish man who is now a very lonely old man.

why have a good days sleep.

No rain here but pretty over cast, to be honest we need some rain. Due to be lovely and warm at the weekend so will get my first early potatoes into the ground :) Will also start sowing lots more seeds over the next couple of weeks as the temperatures look consistently higher going forward according to the BBC.

Thanks most for the reminder about the spuds, I'll start spritting them today.

fluffy I meant to say, that picture is giving me envy. I can't sew at the mo as my fingers are catching on the thread still.

I managed to unthread my needle with my manky thumb a few times last night, Boots! 🙄

I'm chitting main crop spuds under the stairs. I'll put them in at Easter.

I have more seeds to sow now it's April. But nowhere to put them at the moment. 😂 Once the bloody greenhouse gets built (again, Easter, when I've 10 days off and we aren't limited to the weekend) it'll be better. Especially, as you say, Most, as it'll be warmer so things will germinate outside in the greenhouse.

Will be nice not to have every south facing windowsill in the house taken up by propogators fluffy

And the dining table most

Lots of peas on the go here too, but you can never have too many peas! Ours never make it into the house, they're always eaten straight from the pod!
