LizzieM 9,508 Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 While the weather’s been beautiful the washing machine has been on overtime and today is no exception,  I’m washing things I didn’t even remember we had and at the same time I’m chucking stuff out, already been to the charity shop and now filling the bin.  Must mention one important point ....... we’re having a water meter fitted on Wednesday, may as well make use of the water before we get metered!  1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLY2 10,108 Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 With the rainfall being almost nil in the last month, the water level in my stream and pond has decreased considerably, showing beautiful green moss on my waterfall. On returning home from a trip out this morning, it's been removed by magpies and blackbirds in their quest for insects. I'm certain it's not for nest building at this late stage in spring. I don't mind, but it's a hands and knees job now, picking all the bits of discarded moss from the stream, as it tends to grow amongst the pebbles and clog things up. Mmmmm, a job for Mrs Fly ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brew 5,417 Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 Streams, ponds, waterfalls ...all penalties of living in a country mansion - you'll be complaining about the water level in the moat next! Â 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PeverilPeril 3,281 Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 Life is good. Put another 9 hour shift into rebuilding my grandson's garden. Now has 8 veggie plots and a patio. Only spuds and broad beans planted so far. Completed my 7 y/o great granddaughters plot today and tomorrow we will plant a few chitted spuds and some shallots. I will also erect an archway for her to grow sweet peas over. The archway will face the proposed play house. Knackered at 6.15 and poured a splendid litre of 6 y/o vintage cider - whoooo. Yes, life is good 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AfferGorritt 868 Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 Really resonate with that! Just moved into maisonette with fairly large, blank canvas garden. Can’t wait to get stuck in. Already got stuck into the cider! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

philmayfield 6,136 Posted April 26, 2019 Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 Last time I had an ingrowing toenail I performed the surgery on myself. Quite a lot of blood was spilt but the problem was cured. I doubt I have the flexibility to do a diy job now as I’m no longer able to assume the lotus position. At one time, as a party trick, I could put a leg round the back of my neck. I broke wind the last time I tried that though -  much to the amusement of the dinner party guests! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
benjamin1945 16,160 Posted April 26, 2019 Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 I have suffered with ingrowers a few years now,,,i also performed my own Surgery Phil when i first had them,,,bleddy awful made them a lot worse,,and since then have used a Lady Chiropodist every few weeks,,,                  I can still assume the Lotus position.......but with my shaky' hand think i'd still make a mess of my Toes,,,, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
philmayfield 6,136 Posted April 26, 2019 Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 There is yoga in our village hall twice weekly. Perhaps the lady in charge could try and manipulate me. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

philmayfield 6,136 Posted April 26, 2019 Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 My right hip actually Rog! I was sent for an x-ray and after 8 weeks the surgery confirmed I had arthritis. I could have told them that! They suggested physio initially and the physiotherapist ‘phoned me and then emailed me a list of excercises. That was three months ago and I’ve heard nothing more so far. I suppose the ball’s in my court to go on the 19 week waiting list for a ‘transplant’. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
loppylugs 8,429 Posted April 26, 2019 Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 I have same problem in the same hip, Phil. Â It was starting a bit before the stroke. Â Now it's worse. Â Nobody seems to know what to blame. Â Could be physio exercises in the right leg. Could be an effect of the stroke. Â Could be an effect of the BP meds. Â I'm just trying to ignore it.
