Hi, clo!

Looks like you're further along with the gardening than I am, clo.

But then again you're a good bit further south than I am.

And don't you be bullying that poor wee cat!  

Hey Marty  

Yes we've been having nice weather the last 2-3 weeks. A bit of rain yesterday early afternoon but otherwise dry and getting warmer every days. Though for the potatoes I've cheat cause they're in the greenhouse where it was 37°C early afternoon. With this way I'll probably be able to harvest them at the time I would have had to plant if they'd been outside

Beautiful day here in southern Picardie

That made me think of the following song:

The song lyrics were written by British officer Frederick E. Weatherley and the music by Haydn Wood in 1916. "The song was invariably sung by British soldiers who had left behind a sweetheart when they enlisted (or were conscripted) for the Front in France and Flanders. However, the song was written by Weatherley after he had conceived an affection for a French widow while receiving protection at her home in France." (Quote is from: https://www.firstworldwar.com/audio/rosesofpicardy.htm)

Great Music

Well...

I only really came in to get a coffee and a bite to eat.

Time for me to head back and do a few more hours gardening, methinks.

Catch yous all later!

Sad news indeed!  

Although she apparently died of natural causes, and nothing related to coronavirus. She had a good innings!  

I remember when I was at an all boys secondary school in England, she was responsible for many wet dreams by lots of my school chums.  

I was partial to Diana Riggs in the role of Mrs. Peel.

I've just read an article with scientists saying ideally the lockdown should last until mid July in France! 🤯

We've had the same warning of that possibility here. Although it has been said the rules may be relaxed slightly if we all do as we're told  I feel like I'm at home again with my mum saying I can only go out if i do my chorses

I thought madness was a required qualification for being around here ???

Yeah there are talks about doing it progressively like old people, sick people...etc would not be able to go out yet. We should know more Thursday 🤷🏻‍♀️ and yeah I have this same feeling except that I am with my mom. Every time I go out she asks do you have a mask and gloves? Don't forget to put it on  and when i come back did you use hydroalcoholic gel, did you wished your hands, did you put on the mask...

It's not exactly a requirement, but it certainly helps if you are...

Hi, Caz!

I was thinking of using dried cherries

That sounds tasty. I approve.

Doing well, thanks.  I'm making a lemon meringue pie today.   

I'm not sure yet what I'll make for the main meal, though.

Mum says to give her slice to Albert.
