    Hope you have a lovely Spring. It's my favourite season. We just have to get through Fall and Winter til it gets here... Actually, I can't complain about the weather other than not having any rain since June. We had one of the best summers we've had in a long time. We only had one short hot spell where the temps were up around 40C and it only lasted a couple of days. Most years we get up to 42 to 45 and it lasts a week. Can really knock the stuffing out of you, that kind of heat. This year was fab.

        Good Morning All!

        Happy Birthday to JC JR! I have all that excitement to go, and poor Mrs EW all the rest of it!

        Am still recovering from the travel and trying to acclimatise to this weather

        Had a nice sleep last night - today I have to finish sorting the house then I can relax before heading back to work on Monday.

        Any pointers on what to plant in September in my little greenhouse anyone?

            So there you are, Zenners,
            I hope you're not doing the isolating stuff, hun.:l


            Morning EW,
            We managed 3 teeny weeny tomatoes in our wee green house over the summer. So I'm not the best to ask advice for September.

            Bazinga!! just had a thought , how about an orchid.

              Good to see you too, EW. Glad to hear you had a good holiday. I'd like to know about the man/nursing chair as well.

                I've got Mr JC making butter icing for the daughter's birthday cake while he's watching recorded Dr Who episodes. He's like a pig in muck, he's that pleased with himself.

                  Holiday was amazing Zenners! So relaxing and hot and everything I needed it to be

                  Man-chair is in-situ in the baby's room - not without great protest and struggle however, not to mention a mini-row! I think it looks great, Mrs EW rather less so. 'Old man' was her appraisal I believe.

                  Never mind eh!

                      Oh dear, I would never let a man loose in my kitchen especially if butter icing was involved. Except if he was cook, of course.

                      EW - would you consider having it reupholstered to a lovely neutral shade that would perhaps look better in the room? Just an idea. It's amazing how a soft cream or light green or something can completely change the look of a chair and yet still not take away the comfortableness of it. Or even a nice coloured throw would make a difference. Just a thought....

                        A knot on his face is what the expression means. You know - cranky face...

                        I expect Reccie is sleeping right now. He's more of a late afternoon and night person. Um, Panda...

                        Sweet dreams, see you later....:heart:

                          Is this the World Cup Rugby JC? I'm not a big rugby person, but I was in Auckland today and it looks like it will be totally fab tomorrow!!

                          It was so much fun at the airport tonight - lots of people flying into Auckland and the Tongan community have just totally done themselves proud. There cant be many people in NZ who don't know what the Tongan flag looks like now :H

                          I dont know where Scotland is being hosted but there were lot of men in kilts at the airport. I couldn't help admiring their knees

                          Where I live, we are hosting the South African team and there is a South African market being held his weekend before the South Africa/Wales game.

                          I'm not much of a patriot, but I'm hoping that our international guests enjoy it here, and feel welcomed.

                            Hi Again,

                            Stirls - It is a lovely leather finish antique looking chair, so would hate to get it re-upholstered but may be necessary! A throw will surely be put down before too long

                            Miss - Yep it's the Rugby. Not crazy about it myself, but cheer England on at any sport.

                            Zenners - good luck combatting the snoring!
