Very kind of youOpen House here, the more the Merrier. Although our postage stamp garden could get a little crowded.
Me tooActually, that is my motto also.
Great fbg and good that today's classes are local. How far is Norwich for you? - we are apparently 42 miles away but I've never considered it as an alternative to Cambridge even though it is obviously bigger, or maybe because of that.4.6 this morning. Off shortly to early morning classes. Classes are local so so no traveling to Norwich today. Am quite tired this morning so it is good classes are local.
I empathize @ianpspursGood morning from Joe Biden's landing point - couldn't he just annex UK as he already runs 11 states bigger than us?. Maybe I'll sneak in with a neighbour and beg. Technically the base in West Row. My fbg could well have been the 4.9 shown on Swipey @5.33 . Close grouping as expected from 3 almost identical food days. Menu already copied and pasted minus 78% syrup in coffee. Enjoy your gardens @Muddy Cyclist, @lindisfel @gennepher and I guess @dunelm. If you are enjoying your garden today and I missed you, sorry. I can't enjoy a garden with visible housing back and sides. When we lived in a similar close we were screened by very high hedges and huge shed/workshop. Would need a 20-30 ft hedge here to blot out everything I want. If we stay here long there are bungalows backing on to a/the Forest where I may have the best chance of settling - they are near the cemeteryEnjoy your day
One amazing junk painting @dunelmGood morning everyone from another dawn of sunshine here in the dark and dangerous north
The wonder wheel of a fine bavette spoiled by too much red cabbage and roasted celeriac came in at 6.1 this am - or was it the gravy - are you allowed to stay gravy still?
The girl in the bubble yesterday - still excited about her new found skill - so, walk to the park (carry across the road), walk round the park - pram into town, walk up the high street - no sign of giving up until the 1400 hour clock strikes afternoon nap.
Then it’s kicking her football round the garden - laughing all the way.
Mrs Miggins and I are full of cold - drip, drip, drip - pass the Vicks. Very sore throat, cough, oh dear - still, it’s not like breaking a hip - just annoying. Noticed all the Ribwort Plantain in the park so may picks some leaves and make a tisane. Like it’s broad leafed cousin, good for all sorts of stuff - good salad leaves when young - bitter and tough when old.
Not been doing much in the art department - Mr Sniffles and also the let’s move furniture game. So, sketch of another Junk - just looking at ideas. Hope everyone has a good day. Try not to fall over - unless you are under 5 years old - time for koffy.

Thank you @Muddy CyclistSounds like a Frustrating art Morning but winner for perseverance and a cheery piece of art.
Enjoy your garden.
Thanks @gennepher. I hope this is "CPD" for me from The Big Man to teach me something, help me "grow" and remind me how richly blessed I was to have lived 64 years with some part of each year in the previous location. Hopefully, when the house is ready for sale and I have been humbled enough, somewhere suitable will turn up for which I will be properly grateful. At least there are no AH neighbours here but as the song says, in terms of surroundings: if I hadn't known such riches I could live with being poor. You take care.I empathize @ianpspurs
I need any housing blotted out with vegetation.

One bad experience can make us fearful of another @geefullgood evening all
4.3 today
rainy morning and we were up early and out to do the shoppingMy knee is a bit better today thank you though it's rather stiff, I think it's mainly the muscles behind my knee Good job we got some grass cut yesterday though.
good advice @lindisfel I shall be looking out for one to wear when gardening I think
the rain has stopped for now but I think I've given my knee enough gentle exercise for today pottering round the shops with a trolley
From a cupboard under the stairs we dug out a cool box which plugs into the 12v socket in the car. (mr gee says it has a peltier), we took it out with us to try and put mum's ice cream in until we got it back to the freezer. Works pretty well
Hope your day is treating you well
@Muddy Cyclist - looks like a lovely spot to spend an evening
@gennepher - there are lots of wasps visit mum's garden too, unfortunately she is frightened because her face puffed up after being stung by a bee
nice sketch with your new app. though I do agree there tends to be a big learning curve with new ones. Popeye is on guard I see
@dunelm - hugs for the snuffly colds, I like the reflections of your sailing junk and look forward to seeing your ideas worked out
art bit -
painted on CP Bockingford paper and based on a screen cap from an episode of Poirot, I liked the composition

Serves Popeye right for messing about.Fbg 6.8
I give up. Cat was crawling all over my iPad after I had done the sky in SketchesProApp. Which by the way I thought was quite competent. But it went downhill from there. He reset settings with his paw pad, he made another layer which altered the colour settings too, and managed to duplicate the painting which I could not achieve, and changed other stuff so I was unable to correct some lines, and did something to colour fill and so I was unable to colour fill and he ended up a tabby...
This took two hours to achieve, and I need a lie down with smelling salts...
Here is this morning's painting warts and all...
This app is intuitive for a cat to operate, but not for a simple minded human...
