    Thanks Lucky

    Good Idea, it may take a little time but I am on with it NOW!!!

    We are going away for 14 days to get a bit of sun in the Canary Islands.
    These are a small group of Islands off the coast of Africa (a 4 hr flight from our local airport). They belong to Spain and have a warm climate 20C at this time of year. It will be nice to relax and for Fay to have a rest…

    Stay safe

    Hi Bobby

    Like you I’ve been checking in to see if everyone is OK but it is like a Ghost Town round here at the moment.

    It is getting colder here at the moment Summer is very much a distant memory.(not that it lasted more than a couple of days)
    Only managed 2 BBQ’S so will hope for more sun next year!!

    Have decided to type up my book of recipes from when I was at College, so will see how that goes, some of the pages are nearly not there any more through much use. You can trust your own recipes as the are well tried and tested!!

    Hope to catch Peggy and TxChef later if they’re around.

    Not since the storm.

    I do hope that all is well.. Perhaps a lack of electricity?

    Txs Look on the positive side the test could have shown something you don’t want to know. At least they wern’t bad. The Drs will find out what it is and hopefully be able to get to the bottom of the problem with a cure. Never give up and do not worry until the Drs tell you you have something to worry about….
    Keep your chin up and smile 😀

    That sounds great for you Bobby. We are having simlar weather here with flood warnings in N Ireland and in parts of Northern England for last night and today.
    This weather has got us into sweatshirts and thick socks, NOT what we expect for the middle of Aug. The Tomatoes in the garden are not ripening yet and I think we may end up with a lot of Green Tomato Chutney.
    Lets hope that those that want some sun get it whilst those that need rain will get what they want too..

    Love D 😀

    My tomato plants have just got their first flowers but i have just eaten our first potatoes grown in pots in the greenhouse….They were sooooooo tasty!
    I shall notbuy any more lettuce now until October and look forward to supporting myself in veg throughout the summer (if we get one this year). 😀

    Peggy I am well, infact I feel as well as I have done for 3 years.
    My stay in hospital last year (13 weeks) seems to have sorted the problems out.
    After my initial operation to remove the cancer I suffered from surgical complications that kept recuring in the form of abscesses in my lower abdomen. This really came to a head 2 years ago when the surgeon tried to reverse my colostomy and could not because my rectal stump had become fibrosed and hard. Last August he removed the rectal stump and my rectum, sewing everything up at the rear end.
    I am now back to normal health wise but with a permanent colostomy. I still tire easily but that is getting better.
    The weather here has picked up over the last week with temperatures of around 20C with plenty of sun.
    I have been spending quite a lot of time on the allotment as well as in my own garden.. The potatoes are through as are the lettuce planted under a fleece.
    The Blueberries are in flower and my clematis is just bursting into bloom.
    The trip to New Zealand was great with Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia a big shopping trat for Fay. In KL the temperature at 9.00pm was 30C although not too muggy.
    I am in the process of making a photo album on Photoshop express, and when it is finished I will post the link so you can see the pictures.
    It is bed time now so will come back soon
    Love to you all
    David
