philmayfield 6,222 Posted November 18, 2021 Report Share Posted November 18, 2021 It’s better to buy useful, practical presents rather than fripperies like flowers and chocolates that only last for a few days. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

philmayfield 6,222 Posted November 18, 2021 Report Share Posted November 18, 2021 That's not fair. A woman shouldn't be expected to plug in her vacuum cleaner without assistance. Electrical regulations and all that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

loppylugs 8,429 Posted November 19, 2021 Report Share Posted November 19, 2021 Woof, woof, woof! Yep! still wetting lamp posts and chasing Squirrels. Jake, (the real hound) just turned eleven. I told him we're the same age now. He just gave me a dirty look. Thanks for the greetings. It's nice to be remembered. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DJ360 6,740 Posted November 20, 2021 Report Share Posted November 20, 2021 Well today I had a lot of fun raking all of the fallen leaves out of the borders and packing them into perforated plastic bags. They will go out of sight for a year to turn into leaf mould. I can now see the weeds in the borders, so the next task is to get them all out. Finaly, I'll use all of the old spent compost from this years tomatoes etc.. to mulch the borders, and that will be it until the Spring.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mary1947 2,094 Posted November 20, 2021 Report Share Posted November 20, 2021 Went into City Centre last ight, stopped and looked at the Christmas market, It was just like a normal Christmas. Before Virus, wait a minute!!! No lets not blame the virus what Nottingham  has gone, never to be seen again. Giffins/Debs this excellent building which now needs some TLC and where will Santa go. "Santas Grotto Gone." Then passed what used to be "Burtons" Arcade under/behind Coucil House quick look inside Dark/Gloome cold looking like a city dump. What hpperend to Christmas past, Lets not forget "Yates" now for want of a better name "Slug n' Lettece" What an insult to our old pub.   Any advice to local/council's will be welcome. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
