We’ve had rather nice weather recently which has been rather good. It means it is full steam ahead in the garden – or wilt as the case may be… Rebecca and James with Sarah’s rather clever help replicated Catherine’s ice cream shop again this weekend. A cardboard cut out so they could sell us ice…

I’m not particularly religious, and I’ve never given up something for lent before – I don’t think, well not for a while. This year I decided to give up cakes and chocolate – as I was consuming vast quantities of them. So Easter Sunday was good – mostly chocolaty….

I know I haven’t posted for a while and so much has happened in the last 10 days – though with any luck another blog might appear below this one tomorrow – backwards posting…whatever next! Had a lovely weekend in the sun – just what I needed. We didn’t do too much – a lovely…

My greenhouse is still leaking water – I cannot believe it – I thought my concreting and guttering project was amazing – clearly not. So siliconing from the inside this weekend. I also cannot believe how much time i’m spending on my greenhouse – just to try and avoid getting blight again on a few…

If you are a bit sad and like to pour over record labels and matrix numbers and details of records – this site is a must – stumbled upon it by accident looking at Human League records.

Played hockey on Saturday for the 2’s. My knee didn’t give me too much trouble – but about half way through the second half my back became really painful – which was really annoying as I was feeling pretty fit still – in fact to the end I was still managing plenty of running between…

D’oh, after being rather smug about my Arthritis not coming back this year….. its rumbling in my right knee – having a few problems bending it – which is a bit boring. My throat glands were really sore on Monday so that was a giveaway – but feel fine tonight. Hope I can still walk…

Actually played hockey this weekend – somehow our schedules fitted to allow me to play an away game in Milton Keynes. I sort of enjoyed it but I was certainly not of my usual touch in front of goal – had a couple of half chances I’d have expected to have done better than I…
