Morning, all...we have a pair of fig trees outside that were 3 ft tall when planted and now require a 10 ft ladder to tend. Been up for a good bit, but easing into the day. Very warm; high predicted near 90F. Good day to wash & wax a car or three...

Good morning everyone and that's the order of the day for us too.
Just ready for my second coffee now.
Looks like the week ahead is going to be dry and sunny too.
Have a lovely day all.

Morning, all. Lovely morning, today. Trip to the dump this morning, then a lazy day trying to decipher the oven manual so I can set the clock ;)

Have a good one, all

Morning all, have so far found 5 adult ticks that have been brought home from the shoot on the hounds, none attached thankfully. I find this a little odd as they usually show up attached. Anyway vigilance switched on and dialed up to 11.

Apart from combing dogs and self I will mostly be sat at the PC doing expenses again.

Have fun all…

I hope you can still pick loads of lovely figs from it
Yes! At least the ones the birds, squirrels, and deer don't feast on. Fortunately, there's enough for all. As opposed to my olive trees, which just mock me.

Good morning, all...assumed that if I washed the cars, the weather gods would be angered, and was correct. Would like to retract my prior statement re: fall; it actually occurred yesterday around 5p. High today is a full 20 degrees F below yesterday's. That said, it will apparently be 80F on Halloween...

Order of the day: make some frames for a large weaving Courtney is starting, and slow cook a pork butt...

Morning! That was a bloody good weekend. Went to see Squeeze on Friday (if you haven't you must, absolutely brilliant live bad) supported by Badly Drawn Boy. I don't go much for his music but he was bloody funny. And then a weekend of mooching around doing easy stuff, making and eating food, good walk up on the coast and generally enjoying some unexpected autumn sun.

And now, prompted by @2b1ask1 , expenses time.
