being a big game glory hunter, we're going to the biggest game of the day ...... the mighty Millwall vs Leicester   :P.  Another MUST win situation for the Wall (but it has been like that all season so Saturday won't be any different).   :P

Our football message board are having a big get together after the match as one of our crew is over from Australia, so we thought it would be a good time to go down and visit.   I mean, if he can make is from Aus, we had to make the effort from Glasgow eh ?  ;D  It's going to get messy  :o

And while we're down we have to visit my nan, daughter, mum and dad, so it will be the usual whirlwind tour.  tbh i can't wait to get back Monday night and start sowing.

everything's in the bath with the irrigation system set up (thanks Windy  ;D), the birds have 5 days of food in the garden and if they eat it all today, then they're greedy wee things and it's their own fault if they run out.  the outside plants have all been watered, and i think we're pretty near ready to rock and roll.  so i can sit back with my cuppa and put my feet up ready for the taxi to get here.

you'd think with the way i've been running round all morning that we were going for a fortnight !   :o

if i don't get on somewhere over the weekend, have a wonderful weekend chaps and chapesses, i'll be missing you all.

 ;D

You are all very lucky, we have had NO snow boo hoo! :'(  My children are really fed up with it.  In fact I told my husband yesterday that when we retire we are going to live somewhere that gets lots of snow!  While you are probably all fed up with it, we would love just a little bit!

I can garantee that the snow and Sub zero conditions will persist until at least Thursday - That's when the roofers will finish re-doing my roof and loft.  Nothing like a piece of tarpaulin and a thin layer of lath & plaster to keep you in touch with external temperatures!
is it in the sale?

Don't know about snow, but it was 0C in the greenhouse again last night. It hasn't yet been above 3C.

Gorgeous, beautiful sunny day today.  Has Spring come at last to Whitley Bay? We have had so many stops and starts, It is hard to believe the lovely weather we are having today. Do hope tomorrow it all doesn't revert back to winter.  :D busy_lizzie
