Well, the car is now full of stuff to go to the Recycling yard. Need to find someone to sell the lead and copper piping to. (Awful grammar that last sentence.) We are also disposing of lots of books. Bought, read and shelved. Checked on the value before packing them up though. Hate getting rid of books, but needs must.

It really is amazing the amount of junk you hang onto.
Its been quite a stressfull few days here, My ex mother in law is critically ill in hospital after having a very major stroke. We've been helping out where we can, looking after Abbie etc. The outlook isn't too hopeful for Aileen. But we did make it to the Santa train on Saturday, it gave Emma a wee break from being at the hospital and Abbie just loved it.

Well, you got the non-drinking bit right. I am actually allergic to alcohol. I get the hangover while still drinking it. Just seen the lady who is buying our house outside showing the place to a friend. My wife thinks that is a positive sign that she is carrying on with the sale. It just makes me very unsettled. I found a photo of the bungalow we are buying (hopefully) to send to a friend. I found that rather unsettling too. Nothing we can do, it is down the the rest of the buyers and sellers to get on with the thing.

Hope it all goes O.K. for you Geumlover, but it does sound like your buyer is keen & loves the house & garden, it will take a lot of getting used to when you move but you get there eventually & will no doubt love your new home as well.

Has anyone heard from Barbara aka Geranium lately? I had a Christmas card from her. When I sent her mine I asked how she was but nothing was written on hers. Maybe they crossed in the post.

Has anyone heard from Barbara aka Geranium lately? I asked on another gardening forum a few weeks ago, to no avail!. I think she must be ok as I got a card from her today. I suspect she uses Facebook more these days.
