Had a nice talk with my daughter. We discussed shows we like on Netflix, like "Please Like Me"   ... one of the best shows ever.

Hi! It hasn't been a bad day so far. 

I like it when you tell us what you've been doing. It's always sensible and interesting, and very soothing to read. 

It's also fun to see a lot of the pictures posted here.

I just wish everyone would remember it's possible to edit quotes to remove large chunks of text or pictures or video links...

(I applaud Marty for sticking his lovely pics in a spoiler box, since this helps.)

I know I'm a grumpy guy and I've complained about this numerous times. But for the next month or so, you need not worry about this, since I'll probably not be here much. As always in August work shall keep me very busy. So if there's anything important I should know (like Gary needing his editor), it's best to send me a PM.

Thanks Tim. Stay well.

I tend to agree with you, Tim.

If I only wish to respond to a small part of someone's comment, I usually just select that part of the original comment and a 'box' will appear on my screen with "Quote selection" in it. If I click on that, it will appear in the comment box. That's what I did to get Tim's comment above to appear.

I'm not sure if that's as easy to do on a smartphone or tablet, as I always use my laptop for GA.

Yea, Tim. Stay safe, buddy.

(See what I did there? After responding to Tim above, I went back and selected dug's comment, so I could then quote that in the same reply.)

And there I was thinking I was the grumpy old guy in here. I'd never have considered you grumpy.

G'day, Albert and Val (and everyone else).   

Showery sort of day here, and the temperature's a degree or so lower than yesterday. Might do a spot of wallpaper removal shortly, as it doesn't look like I'll get much garden work done today (but the weather could improve later).  

[Marty]

I think we just 'cross-posted' there, young Albert.

Thank god I got my lawn mowed yesterday. Rain forecasted for the next four days. Hey, Marty.  

[Albert1434]

You're slowly getting to know me, clo!  

Quite correct! I'm not a fan of housework. Much rather be outside. Either in the garden, or out on the hills.  

Spoiler

I might have to think about inviting the young strippers back. That might help my motivation...

Hey you Sexy Lumberjack  I desperatly wish we'd get some rain. Last time it rained it was a small shower around June 20th *sigh*.

After the heatwave Thursday and Friday, it was brutal, we were supposed to have thunderstorms and a drop of over 10°C but nope, it's still "only 30°C". The rain collector has been empty for weeks. 

Bright side my tomatoes are getting some nice colorings. I think I'll pick the first one, a black krim, in a couple of days. The cucumbers plantes are exploding, making "branches" in every corners. I had to take them out of the greenhouse as they were running around the tomato plants. I should be able to pick the first in about a week.

Well you're always finding "excuses" not to work on those walls

But I see you're also sneaky and just want the eye candie back
