YEEEEAAAHHHH!  Big smile
 
 
Report from the "Greenford Daily Leader"  dated 4th April 09.....
 
"Police were called to an address near the Ballot Box pub in the early hours of the morning to investigate a serious outbreak of Prog - loud music by Genesis and other such 70's bands were being played, alarming the local residents who are normally used to listening to Rap music blaring from small hatchbacks - the shock was too great and many fainted....there were no arrests but cautions were issued to a group of inebriated Gentlemen, muttering about Sheds and Real Ale..."

"... the publican, Ernest Shuttlebanana IV was interviewed during the extensive cleaning up process & admitted that whilst most of the detritus was indistinguishable from the average bar brawl, the presence of a purple album 1980s cover on the dartboard was a mystery..."

At the moment I'm particularly fond of Wilkin & Sons gooseberry jam. If we can organise a selection of crumpets, muffins and a nice big pot of builder's tea we'll have all the makings of a decent brekker!

This what you had in mind, Chris?



A little something I prepared when Neil, Vicky and I were on the canals last year (looked so good, I had to record it for posterity) - if I say so myself, I'm a hell of a short order cook

Mind you with my current cholesterol @ 7.6, maybe I'd better stick to porridge

Now that's an appealing sight - especially the black pudding! Now we just need mushrooms, eggs, tomatoes, a slice of fried bread - and perhaps the Shed should invest in a defibrillator?

That looks pretty much like the fine culinary offering I cooked a mere 30 mins ago (it's the wife's birthday, I don't do it that often) except for the black pudding - my family just don't appreciate these things.

Hey, it's a lovely morning here! We'll be off out for a walk later.

A very happy birthday to the Mrs, Alan.

Today,I shall be making the first cut of the lawn since the end of last November.I have to be careful not to chop down the snowdrops and crocuses.

^Do what I do then. For sound H&S reasons you should wear ear defenders - particularly if you have an electric or petrol driven mower. But there's nothing to stop you having your mp3 earphones underneath the ear protectors to while away the mowing to some decent music. WinkThumbs Up
 
Ah bliss - and they don't have to be loud either. Normal volume does for me (about 1 on a scale of 1-10)

The garden looks good.Even the lawn looks good especially for the Spring 'wake up' cut.Crocuses and snowdrops unharmed.

Borders re-edged and gullied.Proper job.

Now.Where's that Radox*

Now I suppose I'll have to do mine - well in a few days perhaps - I have to allow for the climate to catch us up up North Wink
