Doing a Macdonalds order at the moment. Still got another hour and forty-five minutes to go before we finish. I reckon by the time we get to bed, it will be time for the clocks to go forward one hour. So instead of getting to bed by 1 a.m., it will be 2 a.m. tonight!

Alternatively, you could clock off now. Nothing to stop you.

Have been catching up with everyone's activities, good to read that everyone's been enjoying themselves.
Have been away in the van for a few days, fantastic warm sunny weather. Been out and and out enjoying walks in the peak district and visiting our son and girlfriend in Sale. Last day today so making the most of it !

Of out to visit our daughter and son in law (Ruth & Wayne) in Leek. They only live about a quarter of a mile from Blackshaw Moor CAMC site at Upper Hulme. I think they want to show off their new conservatory floor they have just finished.

Another glorious day here. It's so nice we put all the stored garden furniture back out after Winter. Daffodils, anemones, tulips, primroses, even hellebores are still going strong! Lots of lovely strong growth from other plants as well, even the lilies are coming up! Frost nipped our Pieris though! My waste pile of clippings and tidied up old foliage is as tall as me now, but hopefully if it dries out quickly enough I can burn it in garden brazier. Compost heaps are full to bursting!

We did get home an hour earlier because there were no more deliveries to do, so we didn't bother waiting in town.
This morning we went to WWT Arundel and had the soup of the day there. We had a walk around spending some time in the various hides including the Sandmartin hide.

We managed to find parking in the Worthing town centre, so we bought a Cornish Pasty and Cappucino from Greggs before taking a walk down to the sea front and on to the pier.
Crowds of people on the pier, promenade and the beach. Plenty of blue sky and sunshine. It was rather warm on the parts of the pier that were sheltered from the wind.

3 sunny days in a row .......just as well as I am about to submit our reading for the last 3 months of PV generation and it has been a pretty miserable quarter overall.
Very warm in the sun here today, unfortunately I am stuck inside finishing those plinth pods as we are delivering them to DD today since we are invited to dinner.
Yesterday we visited our son and family, lovely there too so we were outside playing with the grandchildren and helping in the garden. Out of the sun though, it was still chilly.
Once I get all my tools tidied away tomorrow, it will be time to start sorting the caravan stuff.

Another glorious sunny day, so we are taking full advantage of it.
My son has been spreading slurry (most fields are hilly and it has been too wet to travel on them), and my husband has been rolling (there's a short window between the field being too wet and the grass being too long).
I thought it would be a good day to sit and read in the caravan, but it's at the back of the machinery shed, blocked in by several large agricultural implements).

I'm hoping that there'll be some sunshine left over for the National at Sandringham and our holiday in Scotland.

After a quiet afternoon, it's starting to look like a busy evening. It seems like our customers are tired after their day out in the sun, too tired to cook themselves! It's all Macdonalds orders at the moment!

Yet another Macdonalds order. Macdonalds seem well in favour with our customers tonight! I'm not sure what's so great about Macdonalds. I prefer fish and chips, myself, with salt and vinegar. With fish and chips you get much chunkier chips than the thin French fries that they do at Macdonalds! Having said that, we did get one fish and chip order yesterday from Tasty Plaice in Rowlands Road for delivery to our regular customer who usually orders cigarettes.

It sounds wonderful Helen. Glad you have had the opportunity to enjoy the lovely weather and to see your son and his girlfriend in their new home.

Nice to see someone posting on here. I was feeling a bit lonely, everyone else seemed to have disappeared!

Still working, EasyT. There's an Efes delivery to do for the next door neighbour of someone we delivered to earlier this evening. We're waiting for Efes to finish cooking it. Another 10 minutes it seems before we can collect! 11 p.m. finish tonight but we might get away by 10 p.m. if there are no more orders then.

KFC this time. That makes a change! A wicked zinger meal with gravy and coleslaw but no ice in the drink as a special request. We're at the town centre kfc. They sometimes run out of food at this time on a Sunday evening and so have to cook from fresh which takes longer.

They all keep us waiting! At Macdonalds and Kfc there is often a long queue on a Saturday night.

Back home after an evening at DDs house and an excellent dinner, bacon with sliced mushrooms in a cream sauce on toasted ciabatta, followed by lasagne and salad.
Later we had tea and home made cup cakes.
Then, once the clearing up in the kitchen was done, we brought in the plinth pods and put them in place. They all fitted perfectly, fortunately!
The plinth has to be cut and edged to make the drawer fronts, and unobtrusive handles fitted, but meantime the plinths are back in place.
If the organising of the caravan stuff goes well, we will go back next weekend and make the fronts, if not, then they will not get made till we return in July.
Total cost of parts to manufacture them was about £140 for 8 drawers, with full extension soft close runners, so DD is well pleased. Just as well my time is "free"!
