ENT to do with my sore nose and lack of smell... more bloods taken but for something new this time, lol... and also had a CT scan of my bonce.... they have a couple from last year, but as I am sooooo photogenic they wanted some more, lolol I have to go back in 6 weeks, so we shall see what happens then.

Also, my mother had the memory clinic nurse visit her... and wanted me there, so I have spent part of the day with her, and only just got back in. Busy busy, busy.

Morning all teh day was dry and busy yesterday plenty of children and families ,The older ones did not get out of bed but we did make some new contacts .Am off on train to York today to meet YG just getting my act together .
Tramps foot looks as if its responding to the treatment even though it is licked as soon as the stuf goes on but because he sleeps a lot it does its work then it seems lol

BC, if I can find an extra day somewhere between the week we are in Jersey and the month we are in Tenerife I will probably have to make some chutney.

I've had loads off my tomatoes, which are small one's in pots in the greenhouse. About the size of the Tumbler tomatoes. So much so that, yesterday I had to make a pan of soup to use them up. I also chopped up and put in the pan with them, a small green pepper and a yellow sweet pepper from the greenhouse, and a bunch of chopped herbs from around the garden. Also onions from the OH's allotment, and plenty of salt and pepper. All finished off with a blob of cream ( from M***sons) LOL,and a small, drained tin of mixed bean salad. Sufficent for yesterdays lunch, and two portions for the freezer for the winter.
I have three bowls of Broad Beans, Dwarf Green Beans and French Beans going through the motions ready to put in the freezer at the moment. Everything that can be, is frozen at this house, ready for the winter. It's that time of year again.

Ah that's ok then, Ann, I had visions of donning gingham apron and making green tomato chutney.....lolol....BC XX

Ours are green too BC, not sure why theya re late this year, at this rate ours will be ripe when we are in Tenerife Lol!! I have to add that the tumbler tomatoes (small ones in baskets are lovely and ripe although the skins are a bit tough.

Morning all and good luck with your Talkathon, Daff and hope you are feeling well. Have just had my hair cut short and funky and feel sooooo much better! Have a few days off work as well so I can do what I like. The weather grey and hazy.....and, gardening question...is it normal for luscious large tomatoes to still be green at this time of year? They have been in direct sun for ages and refuse to go red!

Hope you all having a good day. BC¬XX

Good morning.... just popping in briefly... I will be back later, but I have my Talkathon today. Missed a couple of weeks, as she was away, but off the starting block this morning.

It is chucking it down behind me are dark clouds, but ahaed as I look out of the window the clouds are scuttling away and leaving blue sky and sunshine triumphant!! Well, at least until the next skirmish, lolol

Take care and have a wonderful day

Love

Morning to all,
Raining here today but the garden did need a good soak, hope it is dry for Maz and the youth day though.
I've a lot of h/wk to do today as I have a free day from g/ch and need to catch up.
bye for now.

Ginniexx

Hope the youth day goes well Maz, and it stays dry.

morning my two can sniff fish from the depths of dreams ,and they look at you as if to say we are starving .Gizmo will pinch the tin given the chance to clean it out if I am not quick enough ,
well we have a youth event in the park today we have the DJ stuff outside and skaters ,etc planned all free so hope its well attended .they all moan there is nothing to do so we will see hopefully it will stay dry for them

Well I suppose she sees you still have some on your plate and that is not fair!!!

Not sad, Ann, just a matter of saying 'well, where is the rest of it, that barely touched the sides on the way down.' I hope she is still eating the biscuits as I bought another bag of them last week.

Huia.
