I missed the wood part. So it’s green no space wood? I’m baffled.

Exactly.  That's why I was surprised that you knew why it was being filtered out... because it makes absolutely no sense why it would be filtered.

Good morning.

It is 50°F and cloudy here in North East England at 08.20am.

I hope everyone is well.

Take care and stay safe.

Graham.

I was playing around on the test board. Bluewood is okay. Yellowwood is okay. Yellow+Blue wood is not okay.

There HAS to be a story there.... I just can't imagine what it must be, though!

Was at the hand surgeon’s today. Key word being surgeon.  Referred by my GP after two cortisone injections didn’t do what they were supposed to do. After examining my hand, he said ok, we’ll book you in for surgery in two weeks time. 
I said, oh I am having surgery?  I think he did an eye roll and then said what did you think was going to happen? I said I know you are a surgeon so surgery is obvious but I thought there may be other options first. Only other option is a third cortisone and he didn’t recommend so off to my third day surgery in 8 weeks to have a dequervains release procedure.  Pretty straightforward by the sounds of it so not worried.

Envious of everyone’s delicious cocktails.  It’s mulled wine & hot choc weather here 🧤🧣

I'm glad you posted the correction.  I thought I missed something. 😆  I couldn't figure it out. 

I think spell check worked better on my S8 than it does on this S22. I am not sure why?🤔

Big day of Australian sport for DH tomorrow.  He is getting up at 4am to watch our National Football Team (Socceroos) play UAE.  Then in the eve, he is having the boys over to watch Game 1 of State of Origin - Rugby League (NSW vs QLD).  I am leaving them to it and going to the movies with a friend to see Top Gun.

My granddaughter just bought Rumours, the vinyl!  She is 13 and really into the vinyl.

I bought a record player for Gary's birthday last year. He still has all his old LPs. Though we have Spotify it's nice to have the old fashioned vinyl sometimes

Great movie , you will enjoy. 

I also have a rare day to myself. DH is meeting up with some old work buddies in Central London for a visit to the Imperial War Museum. Not really my kind of thing,  but he loves anything to do with planes and WW2 related

Can you spot our neighbours Mexican hairless dog. Hes very affectionate but strange cuddling a hairless dog, just warm flesh 🤔 

This pic was taken at our streets jubilee get together. Everyone mingled and mixed on the front driveways/lawns up and down the Street

YES. And it seems he likes Gary very much and is comfortable inside his sweater 😉 DH spotted him first... and jokingly suggested a match between him and Bug Naked 🤪

My daughter and I went to the Imperial War Museum a couple of years ago.  She was keen because several friends had told her how good it was.  We were surprised how much we both enjoyed it. Very interesting and informative.

Enjoy your me time.   Hope you get a bit of pampering in.

DH has a large cupboard full of  vinyls.  After throwing out all his VHS tapes, he said I am never going to play these vinyls  and wanted to throw them out too.  Talked him into keeping them because I think he would regret it later.

We had a busy weekend.    Eric's Brother stopped by to say Hi on Saturday.    We haven't seen him in a while so we asked him to stay for a BBQ dinner.     He gladly accepted and we spent hours catching up.     Then Sunday I had to work on all the chores I didn't get done on Saturday.    I was very happy to finally sit down on our back patio around 4 pm and say that everything was planted, mulched, weeded, trimmed and mowed.    Now sit back and watch it all grow.     Our garden is thriving and Eric's sunflower plants must be growing an 1" a day - there are now over 3' feet tall.     

I hung on the fence 4 license plates I have collected from Aruba, Bahamas, St. Maarten and Venezuela along with other outdoor decor (Flamingo's, Fish, etc).    Hung up near back door (on the siding) the wood and beaded sea turtles I bought in Antigua (360 store in port) in January.    Love them.   

Where are the pictures of your garden now and all the yard work you have been doing?

Super way behind after just a couple of days so hope all is well with everyone.  I am back with Annabel and things will be busy around here for a bit.  LOL  She was described as "spunky" and that she is.
