Umm.....garden weeded, raked tidied? ....I wish! If ever you are at a loose end Dawn.........(wishful thinking here! )

Love Suki's name and I should wait until Thursday when you are off work too.

 

[skinnydawn]

Thanks Bess xx

I should add, before he moans lol, that while I was happily raking all the leaves and crap up, Gwyn was putting it all in the bin or the composter!

Don't want to take ALL the credit!

Thanks for the advice on little Suki xx It's going to drive me mad to have to wait for a few extra days but it will be worth it to spend the extra time with her xx

I met a friend this morning who is walking 3 foxhound puppies, they are absolutely lovely, about 12 weeks old I should think. She was riding her horse and they were following on behind, so sweet, all ears and feet and always so good tempered. I'd have such trouble sending them back at 9 months, mind you, I think she will too!

It's great at the shows when the hunt come and invite all the children to come into the ring to pet the hounds. Hoards of the children stream towards them, hounds everywhere and never, ever has there been any trouble.

HELP NEEDED PLEASE DAWN!

Evening Dawn

Looks like you have been very busy today! I have not posted a for a day and a half - been at work and we dont get wifi in the dining room until the 5 th august (then I can post every shift!!) Have managed to do some cooking to help with my SW quest but I have a problem with the roulade .... I found a recipe on the forum but it just tasted like egg so if poss could you post yours please so I can compare?? HOWEVER the syn free lemon curd you recommended was absolutley amazing!! Thank you x Oh and I finally had that mushroom omelette this morning .... delicious xxxx

 

[bexyboo]

Hope the kitchen floor cleaning wasn't too bad and glad you got your full English! Your soo good to do all that in one day!! Have a good day tomorrow! And relax after all you done today! xxx

Dawn - for heavens sake, it's the weekend. You're supposed to relax not do all that work. LOL

Don't have your problems with carpets (don't have any) or the garden (don't have one of those either - just a court yard with some tubs). Living in a village the houses just don't have gardens - just like the back-to back housing in the UK. Front door straight onto the street and nothing at the rear either! We are very lucky in that we do have a massive courtyard which is VERY rare. It's the biggest thing I miss living in Spain.

 

[skinnydawn]

But I LIKE cleaning carpets lol! Hate kitchen and bathroom floors tho! And I LOVE mowing lawns too...I could do it all day! It's so satisfying! Xx

 

[bexyboo]

It is satisfying! Putting the lines in! I need a roller on my lawnmower though, would look much better! x

 

[skinnydawn]

Ooh NOW you're talking Bexy! I love to see a stripey lawn! Never had a roller on my mower before but as we're going to have to get a new one soon I might see if I can wrangle one!
My ultimate dream would be a HUGE lawn that I could mow on a sit on mower! Bliss!

 

[Pommette]

Huge lawns definitey need a sit-on mower. Ours in England wasn't quite big enough so we had a petrol driven one with said roller, so stripes were the order of the day. But the grass was so full of moss that we couldn't get very good ones!

 

[ginlin]

Morning Dawn,
Hope you aren't aching after all what you did yesterday x
Your garden looks beautiful!
And a sit on mower?, I could do mine in a three point turn then

We used to have sheep and geese as our lawn mowers, sometimes the horse.....mostly just us.

I love your garden Dawn, all that green - fabulous.

Morning Dawn & all.

Just to let you know - I went out to a Greek restaurant last night,
and I had spanakopita.

Do you know what that is?

As a small clue, maybe I should have written it as SPANAKOpita!
