Lockdown rolls on, so we're staying in and isolating with the FAF. Grin
The bar is stocked, the floor has been mopped, the tables have been wiped, and the HBFs are however you want them Grin

(We're also doing lots of washing and gardening.)

Re pdfs helen, at work we have FoxitPhantom PDF - we have only recently moved to the version that allows editing, so I haven't used it much except for adding review notes & editing marks, plus I have no idea how expensive that version is!

More plants planted - only three little ones left to do, but as the bed where they're going needs a bit of weeding I'll leave that 'til the weekend. Bin up to a steamy 70 degrees according to the internal thermometer - got a bit of an agricultural facial when topping it up Grin

LetUsPrey · 20/05/2020 21:54

Grin at agricultural facial

I bet your garden’s looking beautiful Fancy.

They’re doing nightwear on Sewing Bee. I’d wear some of them (not seen the finished articles yet but they look good so far)

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 20/05/2020 22:05

at the agricultural facial - who needs a fancy spa session Fancy? I have AcrobatPro, so I don't think it's the calibre of the programme/conversion that's the issue.

LetUs - I do have saddlebags actually Grin Now there's a thought. And Wench-approved music is the best, so there would be no problems with inflicting it on sharing it with other people Grin

You can pop the tape deck in your front basket and play your cassettes really loud. Just be careful the wires going to the speakers don’t get tangled in your wheels or pedals or other bike related bits.

I should have gone to the hayloft ages ago.

LetUsPrey · 21/05/2020 07:59

Morning wenches.

Cloudy and considerably cooler today.

Nothing to report. Brain appears to have stayed in the hayloft. Work beckons accompanied by supervising/assisting DS2 with schoolwork.

Oh the sun’s come out! That’s cheered me up Smile

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 21/05/2020 08:46

Morning. Sunny and warm here still, though lots of cloud too.

I think you should return to the hayloft immediately LetUs - the HBFs will help you look for your brain. And other stuff.

2 days until half term, and then at least I don't have to do the school thing for a week...

Morning
Loving your portable hi-fi tips letus

Sunny here too. Today's excitement is the promised green bin collection - am hoping mine isn't so heavy they refuse to take it Grin

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 21/05/2020 11:07

Slept in, didn't have any breakfast, went straight for an early lunch. Blobbing at the moment, waiting for the Ibuprofen to kick in, thank fuck for painkillers, best invention ever!

FancyFancy · 21/05/2020 13:11

Hope they've kicked in now ww

Sweet baby jesus, it's like avian WW3 out there, so bloody noisy!

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 21/05/2020 15:18

We've got a crow attacking its own reflection in next door windows. For intelligent birds, crows can be surprisingly thick.

Afternoon. Another lovely day. We went for a walk in the village-up-the-road this morning.

LetUsPrey · 21/05/2020 18:48

Evening wenches.

Am Grin at the bonkers noisy birds.

Found lots of stuff in the hayloft with the HBFs. Mostly each other.

Did they manage to move your green bin Fancy?

Hope you’re feeling better Wicked

For intelligent birds, crows can be surprisingly thick. I am now convinced that DS1 is part crow.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 21/05/2020 20:26

Evening all. We have a very good collection of noisy/bonkers/stupid birds between us - and that doesn't even include HoudiniHen!

LetUs - is DS1 fond of wearing black and also quite noisy?

6 miles on the bike today and I'm pooped. Plus the other bike ride which was another mile. Hurrah (and a relaxing bath) for getting fit! I'd quite like to sleep in tomorrow. (I can't, I have the BoringSpareRoomJob)

Also at DaddyMegalomanicSwan taking over the world, though the cygnets are cute and fluffy, and MrsLargeLake is probably quite embarrassed by her pushy husband.

LetUsPrey · 21/05/2020 21:40

Not so much the black, but yes to the noisy.

Am impressed by the biking Helen. Also at MrsLargeLake being embarrassed by her pushy husband.

LetUsPrey · 22/05/2020 08:23

Morning wenches.

It’s Friiii it’s Friiiiiiiddddaaaayyyyyyy. I was convinced yesterday several times it was Friday so that was a disappointment when I realised it wasn’t.

Very windy today. Need to see if DS2 can help take the garden swing seat down so it doesn’t blow over.

Best get on with breakfast and then off to work.

FancyFancy · 22/05/2020 10:28

lovely swan pic apricot - and quite brave to be hanging around thuggish DaddyAllTheLakes

Green bin was collected & is now practically full already. Compost bin just below 40 degrees on the lid thermometer, should be hotter inside but I'm not opening it up to find out!

ApricotCrush · 22/05/2020 18:16

Evening. Very windy here, haven't ventured out.

I made a to do list this morning adding three things that had already been done and haven't got very far with it. Don't seem to have much motivation.

The swan pic was cropped, I wasn't going to risk getting close to him, for fear of a broken arm. Grin

Lol at MummySwan being embarrassed by her husband.

Friday evening Wine for all.

LetUsPrey · 22/05/2020 18:36

Evening wenches.

Still windy, worse than it was this morning so it was fortunate that DS2 did help with the swing seat otherwise it would have blown over and knocked lots of stuff over.

What’s the timescale for having compost to use Fancy? You may already have answered this question.

I do that with lists Apricot Grin. And then I do a couple more things, DH looks at the list and thinks I’ve done way more than I have. Excellent zooming skills with DaddySwan - the photography kind, not the online meeting kind.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 22/05/2020 20:21

Evening all. Hammered down with rain for about 4 minutes last night - enough to wake me up. Then had busy day at work. Windy here too - kept the bike ride short today! Though at least it's sunny. A magpie is shouting outside the window

I had a zoom meeting today. It wasn't very exciting, but I have foudn out how to add a background options to my personal folder, so I'm trying think what I can add that people at work will actually notice/laugh at. Obviously, the wench option would be the garrison, but no-one at work will get that, so I'm thinking about maybe a tardis interior...

OP posts:
FancyFancy · 22/05/2020 20:45

Evening
Windy here too - cats not impressed. Sitting next to me surveying the garden.

Compost should be ready in 8-10 weeks if I can keep the temperature above 40 degrees.

Thank goodness it's Friday - have some wine left over from last night Smile

LetUsPrey · 22/05/2020 20:45

The library from the Tardis? Bookshelf to the bonkers extreme!

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 22/05/2020 20:50

On the couch watching Poirot with Fräsan next to me. Could life be any better?

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 22/05/2020 20:53

And now she's licking her butt, nice Hmm

LetUsPrey · 22/05/2020 21:15

🤞🏻to temperature staying above 40

I am picturing the cats with “arms” folded, looking most put out

Sounds lovely Wicked, except for Frasan’s sudden hygiene exercise

Sigh. Was feeling quite jolly and relaxed, then saw something from the school and now feel a bit flat. Perhaps I’m just a bit tired. Also, DH has just suggested that, seeing as tomorrow after is going to be very windy again, we should really get the house clean and tidy. Oh hurrah.
