Well what can we say, its Bank holiday weekend, and the weather forecast sounds excellent, so ive got the wine chilling in the fridge, bought myself some new coals for the gas BBQ and ive got the sausages in the freezer. ;)

Ive got a few gardening jobs in mind and then when all the work is done, i get to play out.....yipeee ;D

Me too Honeybee! We've been invited for a BBQ on Monday at great friends, then OH wants to give ours the seasonal opening tomorrow as well. Might as well make the most of it!
If it's as hot over the weekend as it was today, I'm planning to do very few jobs, and then just bask in the hammock. It's been quite a week, so that would be bliss!

I was going to have a BBQ Sunday but cancelled at last minute as I have been given the go ahead to dismantle an old shed for the Lottie 8) (strike while the irons hot or what?) Not rushing to re-assemble tho. ;) This may be the first shed to attract the vandals :o

Had a barby tonight, well start as you mean to go on! I have plenty of nice meat cuts handy, plenty of bread and lots of salad. Barby every night I think. ;D

its was beautiful yesterday - even managed to tempt husband down to the plot after he finished work with promises of beers cooling in the water butt! so he sat and had a beer and watched me dig :D

supposed to be cloudy today so i am working but hoping it turns out as nice as they say tomorrow so i can get some stuff done down the lottie and indeed barbeque.

have a good wekend everyone!

We have rain too, it was beautiful yesterday but now we've got the weekend off the sun's gone in :(

Still its better than being at work and hopefully things should improve - they better as we are WAY behind with all our plans and I was hoping to persuade/bribe/bully my teenage son and some of his mates into a bit of digging. Seems a fair deal to me - a bit of digging in return for a BBQ but I expect once more money will have to change hands.

Have a good weekend everyone.

ooh actually, change of plan, its the newcastle green festival this weekend so we will pop down there on sunday. (music, environmental stalls, information and beer)

Rain here in Chester :( so that's put paid to all my good intentions for the lottie and a braai, hopefully it can only get better for the next couple of days

Well now, we expected the rain up here in the Scottish Borders, but, guess what, it didn't rain. They must have got the forecast wrong!!!! A bit of garden was done, grass cut and I tidied up a Border with a bit of digging, so got a tired back tonight. Will be up early in the morning to wash my face in the May dew. Got to keep em wrinkles at bay !!!!!
