Aah Dandelion and Burdock or Dandelion and Birdmuck as it was known in our house , have I mentioned before we are a right classy lot. :lol:
I was thinking of making dandelion and burdock,as the dandelions are out now. Unfortunately, I haven't the foggiest idea what burdock looks like. :lol: You can also make dandelion honey, but you need about 200 dandelion heads, forget that for a game of soldiers !

Give me a couple of weeks and I'll have a good supply of dandelions for you.

I was looking at a recipe, apparently they need to be picked away from verges, parks and anywhere else that might have been sprayed with chemicals. I'll take 'em though, or maybe you might like to have a go ? The recipe :

 

Ive just watched TOTP from 1982. I must have a very selective memory because I remember that era as being a bit special. Appearing tonight, Goombah Dance Band, Foster and Allen, Julio Inglesias, Chaz and Dave, Bucks Fizz, The Nolans.šŸ˜€

And 1982 was before we had remotes so no one could be arsed to get up a change the channel, that was probably the worst TOTP line up ever


Giz a bit of The bay city rollers or showaddywaddy :)

It is quite common in the hedgerow ,do you remember the sticky buds as a kid ?
 

Hi folks. Day Another day at the fun factory today. Our IT system crashed at 1.20pm yesterday and was fixed roughly 24 hours later. We've done no work. It lasted about half an hour and went down again. I've done one case in that time. Absolute madness.
In nicer news,we've been invited to Charlotte's for tea for Mother's Day because she's working on Sunday. She's doing Mexican .
Hope you are all having a nice Friday x
Have a lovely Mother's Day Anj , @Val P and @Gwladysover ( and anybody else who identifies as a mum - you can't be too careful nowadays šŸ˜‚)
 
Morning everyone,

Well mum's home so fingers crossed everything will be ok.

Got her one of those pendants that register and report falls which hopefully we never need.

Whilst I was in hospital our local tree surgeon who is a lovely fella rang me and asked if I wanted a truckload of bark chipping. I said yes because I use them all over the garden as a mulch / weed suppressant.

Asked him to dump it in the usual place but came home to find that he's dumped 3 loads and I can't now access the back gate. So you can guess what I will be doing this weekend. @blue1948 think a 4ft high snow drift but you can't use your blower šŸ˜‚.

Well hopefully my back lasts long enough to clear a path at least.

Whatever you do have a lovely day everyone.

Good to read that first thing in the morning. Keeping everything crossed for you.
Good luck with clearing the bark chippings.
Thanks for the Motherā€™s Day wishes and hope your Mum has a lovely day too.šŸ’.

Hope you had a lovely tea at Charlotteā€™s. Iā€™m having my time this morning as my d-i-l is going for an endoscopy later today so we made the assumption that sheā€™ll not be up to much tomorrow. Poor thing has never truly recovered from the hyperemesis gravidarum she had throughout her pregnancy- itā€™s really messed her system up. šŸ’™
