it was interesting but really I enjoyed the 50's one more...next week the 70's. Orange laminate benchtops and teak kitchen cupboards.. I remember those 

I did a MacArthur and returned from the wilds NOR 

Good evening Stringers btw

Arrrrgh Prim - late night shopping - shopping of any kind in fact 

Lots been happening here Prim - will update you in an email over the weekend - all good but I admit to getting tired sometimes lol

Flashie, I would not even know where to start with a video - so well done you!

Deb, good luck to your OH tomorrow - hope he has completed all his homework now and gets a good rest tonight

I am working all day tomorrow, s'pose I should think about dinner for us here before we lose our appetites.

Will try and get back later but if not, will catch you all tomorrow night or over the weekend.

morning all

thanks Laney

Good morning Stringsters.

My idea to go shopping to get it out of the way was possibly not the best decision. It had been a big day before I headed for the shops, with the result I came home, did a few domestic necessities and went to bed. I woke at 9am. I must have been tired LOL. OH snored quietly alongside me so he must have needed it to. 

It is a gardening day today. I had intended to get out there early because it is very hot but I think I will just have to do it in the shaded areas until it cools down a bit. 

well hubby got up at 6.30 and went off to his new job only to find that HR had made an error, and his starting date will now be next Wed. there was another new man who suffered the same fate. So that was a bit disappointing.  Their HR dept. is in Qld. and there have been lots of mix ups and delays

ooops a bit big... I love these clivias which are currently flowering in my garden. the yellowish one is named after Olivia Newton John

Did he get a letter of offer which he had to sign and return? 

What date was on that?  What a waste of emotional energy for your hubby Deb 😞

yes he did Prim. lots of mail back and forth over the past few weeks
