    Loggie—Nice ones. They look very, very good. How many plants do you have?

    Zigs—More goodies. Nice looking carrots.

    Tetters freezes them for use in dishes later @Jersey Devil :) We've dried them too but found it easier to freeze than rehydrate.

    Ta Sjoerd :)

    Just a bit of watering, haven't had much time for anything else.

    Loggie— are you busy or just don’t have anything you can turn your hand to at the minute?;)

    Nothing again today. Such a busy week we've been out every day this week( partial day yesterday so was able to do the downstairs vacuuming...finally :D:like: ,)

    Been feeling not right for over a week now so decided to call into my Dr's this morning before going out again for the day and the nurse ran a couple of tests. They rang about lunchtime while we were having lunch but I didn't answer as I had told them that I would be out all day in very public places so could they please text me. They tried a couple more times but eventually sent a text. A prescription was waiting for me to collected from my nominated Pharmacy as I apparently have an infection and must go for more tests next week after I have finished the course of antibiotics to ensure it's cleared up. Strange to say but I was relieved to ' have something ' as after 9 days of not being able to pinpoint exact symptoms I was beginning to think it was all in my head. Our bodies are so amazing aren't they as they certainly try hard to tell us to seek out help...just need to take their advice more.
    So after a surprised hectic weekend last week and a full on week this week I'm really looking forward to spending the whole weekend with uninterrupted gardening bliss.:fingerscrossed::fingerscrossed::fingerscrossed::fingerscrossed::fingerscrossed::fingerscrossed:
    Watch this space to see if my dreams come true.:fingerscrossed::fingerscrossed::D

    Just thought of one job we did.....made Blackberry jam last weekend to send home with eldest son and his partner. Also made some Plum sauce to accompany our icecreams too. Yummy.
