It's never too early for gin, Auriga.
I had to Google skimlinks.
But then I always use the mobile site, so I never see any.
Molly, no harm in calling, but I'm sure they would have contacted you by now were there anything amiss.
Wondering who the "very odd woman" is.....I did go to a couple of general MUs (where I first met BTM and Herbs); but don't remember any standout oddballs a few eccentrics, maybe
Anyway, I'm basking in the warm glow of Productivity today - I got up early, took DS to work, collected DD1 from sleepover, and spent a happy few hours in the garden. It's actually the first time I've ventured past the back door since about October. I planted my new olive tree in its new pot, raked leaves off the expanse of boggy mud that passes for a lawn (yes, I know most people did that back in the autumn), swept the patio, tidied the pots, pruned the buddleia, and carried out my favourite activity of the gardening year, which is clearing out all the brown twiggy stuff from last year's herbaceous growth, revealing the shiny green shoots of this year's. I just love that! Then off to the tip and the garden centre, collecting DS from work on the way back.
Two trays of mouse poison were empty this morning. I'd love to be able to stop the little bastards getting in, but short of demolishing the kitchen don't know how I can. I just have to make sure there is nothing but tins and jars in that one cupboard, and do the occasional poison purge - it seems to see them off for a while.
