Morning to you too @Leeski , yes I very well thanks...a bit tired from all our lovely days out.....but I not complaining.

Hope you're Ok , sorry to hear that you've got another hard day's work ahead.

As I mentioned yesterday, very impressed by your wormery, you're a great asset to have on the forum.....we are all learning a lot from you

I have made all manner of concoctions made one that started fizzing and bubbling at one point was worried that either a witch was going to knock on my door and ask me to join a covern or armed please arrest my for making some kinda of explosive liquid lol

I am sure the stench could be something. I had some maggots from the rubbish dripping onto the water butt and it had a most disgusting stench! Now I take any hazardous maggot attraction across the road to the public bin which will be collected twice a week!

It's not exploding, I hope! Your photos might grace the Wirral news!

Morning there @alp , know what you mean, I'm not due an eye test until early next year but I have definitely noticed a deterioration in them recently.....fun this ageing malarkey isn't it
Aren't you good washing your heavy curtains twice a year.....I'm embarrassed to admit I don't.

My pathetically small toms

Close up of my funy toms and the best ones are the dark red in colour! Perhaps I shouldn't have bought those from Wyevale as the whole gamut of toms are here! The big ones are not ready and they are breaking the stalks!

Yes, and the spinning left it very wet and so onto the next spin! This Bosch cost me so much money. I will leave it here when I move.

They look amazing.....you should see ours one or two red ones and all the rest are green....and probably tough skinned too

Sorry...yet again, not sure why I quoted myself there...ooops!

My mind was racing got lots on !had to do two hours of paper work and accounts after a long day accounts are not my strong point as you can tell by my posts can hardly spell lol and my math ain’t much better!
Funny time of the year for me starting to sort work for Xmas I’m hoping to beat last years figures but don’t want to work as hard as I did last year!

Things moving too fast! Yes, that's the trouble! I wanted to return one bald patch to grass and dumped all sorts of old compost onto it and low and behold 20 toms sprang up - gatecrashed my "lawn" and now the quick grass seeds have sent out tufts in amongst the toms!.. Oh, dear! What have I done?

@Upsy Daisy don't be ashamed of not washing your curtains. I haven't done mine for a few years.
The dining room patio doors are 10ft long and the curtains 90inc long and width each, also lined. They're very heavy when dry and hard to get back up, even with help from hubby. But it's too late now this year, it will have to wait until next, if i remember.

@alp sorry about your eyes. Do you have them checked every so often? They can do a lot more now.

Do you have Excel on your laptop? I could possibly send you one form with formulae embedded. But you must have a spreadsheet software and if you can tell you what you need, I can design one for you. But you possibly have one already. Once you input the data, the form will do the sums for you.
