i keep thinking those are your feet and panicking slightly 😂
(also, she really is just wonderful 🥹)
@moonrabbit lol I can promise you they’re not my feet.
She is lovely. I was thinking today that if you want the gentle companionship of a chicken without all the stuff that goes with keeping chickens, taming a pheasant is the way to go. She seeks us out in the garden. It’s quite strange but very nice.
You realise when you chuck her out of the greenhouse, you're going to end up building her her own little greenhouse to bask in?
@helenclayton
oh bless her. maybe she'd help keep bugs and things away, once there are plants?
how are you / how's your monday?
@moonrabbit I think she’ll eat the bugs well enough…but also young plants! I’m weaving a little fence around a veg patch to discourage but she hopped over that to inspect my work 🙄.
I’ve been working today bc of meetings but will swap with a day later in the week when rumours are that it’ll be sunny ☀️
How’s your Monday? 
@helenclayton
oh bless. she's curious! inspecting her new veg patch 
ooh, sunny! it's meant to get hot here tomorrow i think (well 20-odd), which might be nice. but weird ...
my monday has been very challenging, but it's mostly done now, thankfully. i had to glaze but was too unwell really and spent like 45mins doing one piece.🙄 managed to speed up with the rest at least. how well i did might be another matter though 😬😂
have you finished your benches?
@moonrabbit allegedly 18°c and sunny on Wednesday. But I think it turns cold again next week. It’s all so higgledy piggledy.
Ugh I’m sorry. And you don’t like glazing at the best of times. I hope your trolley still helping?
My benches are finished. Well, I need some planks for shelves underneath (had hoped to use some we already had but too short/not enough). I’m improvising for now.
@helenclayton
*everything* is higgledy piggledy 
but yes trolley is amazing. so amazing! makes everything so very much easier. including tidying up!
how's your tuesday proceeding? is it sunny? we've got the sheets out ...
@moonrabbit *everything* is higgledy piggledy. Sorry I didn’t get back to you yesterday. I had a good day (finally saw an osteopath about my bad back after ignoring it for over a year! Apparently there’s hope for me) but brung down later. Nearly didn’t go out today but I’m glad I did.
Where are you off too?
@helenclayton
hooray for hope! and help for your back; i hope they can help and you feel better soon
(but yeah v easy to get brung low atm. i've been just about keeping my head up. just about.)
did you have an out in the sunshine today? (so WIMBDY here)
we had to go to the vauxhall garage to get the recall thing fixed (which they said was actually quite urgent, unlike what local guy said 😬), and they also noticed the CT failure and looked into that and it turns out local guy was 100% wrong about that too.🙄 it needs a part ... we have to go back in a few weeks for that, but at least the dangerous thing is fixed now. we had hope to do some nice things while out but didn't have time in the end, but maybe next time? or just another day.
are you eveninging?
@moonrabbit my back needs re educating apparently.
It’s been lovely today. Not wimdy at all so I had a good walk on the coast.
I’m glad that your car is fixed, mostly, and not dangerous. Sorry you didn’t get to look at things this time but it sounds like a very worthwhile trip.
@helenclayton
maybe your back can teach the rest of us, once it's learned?
and ah, the lovely coast, i'm glad you got there
