I’m glad your little frogs were ok
Handy little friends to have in the garden as they eat slugs snails midges and flies

It would be nice to see a pic of your new water feature when it’s installed

Will post one, but it may be some time! Mr Blue has today informed me he doesn't intend doing it immediately. He has to design something first. He has checked the pump today and it is working and powerful. We could have a fountain like Chatsworth House. The sand arrives tomorrow. 20 bags of it, ready to fill the pond in and then cover with pebbles or similar as a temporary measure.

What d'ya mean summer.? It's winter here in Oz - cool breezes, night rain storms, swollen creeks ( and I do not mean sore, stiff joints), weeds, weeds, everywhere, nor any flower to pick, black-frowning skies. Heaven !!!

I thought you were all in the midst of a full on drought down under? Or was that fake news put out by the BBC?

Crisps? I have a packet of Salt & Vinegar every now and again. The multi-pack bags are smaller so less carbs. About 13g I think. I can manage that if there are no other carbs worth mentioning with a salad.

After reading that I'm going to bed to have a good old sulk.

Is that 13 grams for the whole of multi-pack bag? Or are you able to eat just one teensy tiny bag of like 5 crisps and leave the other 14 bags in the kitchen cupboard? If so, you must be some kind of demi-deity!
 
Hi all,
8.30 am here, sunny day, 16 degrees C at present and low tide (25 minutes drive away) due at about 10 am.
I am trying out having protein and coffee first for breakkie, followed about 15 minutes later by the 30 g carbs of oats, milk, flaxseed meal etc. Apparently bsl rise should be approx. 20 % lower doing things in this sequence.
Shopping day so will be lugging home about 20 kg of food etc in the rucksack, keeps my feet on the ground !!
Down basal on the pump 20% for 4 hours usually handles the exercise.
A cuppa coffee and good cheer at the cafe powers the walk home. I will not go to the hardware store, repeat 100 times.
Saying for the day: If you teach a person to fish, they will feed themselves forever,
If you teach them how to throw a boomerang, they will probably knock themselves out !!
 
G'morning Karen, morning all.

Still no rain, am gonna look daft if I have to go outside to water the garden in winter coat and gloves.
 
Blummin eck! House of Frazer in administration? I missed that news. Debenhams arn't in a good place, either. Pretty soon I won't be able to get age appropriate clothes anywhere. I shall now go google where I can get a RaRa skirt online :D

It's almost 11am and we have plenty of cloud but still no rain. Poor old Manchester, the rain sometimes sits above that city for ages but now it's our turn!
