Hello everyone welcome to the garden we have a marquee and heaters, all the garden furniture has been washed and I have put out cushions for your comfort.

Well what do you think shall we chance it . Now as always we have tea and coffee from all over the world not to mention all our cakes and muffins and as Paul calls them sweets! Every single one is calorie free! Plus of course we now have spirits and liquors to warm the coldest of you.

If we were having Coffee: I would ask you what has been going on in your world this week, has anything deeply affected you, have you need a sympathetic ear, a shoulder to cry on or just needed someone to make you laugh! If yes feel free to talk it out here with us. We will all help if we can.

Join in !

If we were having Coffee: I would remind you that there are lots of other coffee mornings all shared and organized By Diana and Gene’O over at,Part time monster

If we were having coffee: Well it has been a very busy week again, tell me please where has half of this year gone ??

Well settle down with your drinks and cakes and I shall tell you about the big plan! What I hear you asking? Right the hubby has suggested we have a new kitchen and I actually agree! Even though it will mean a lot of upheaval it will be worth it. So far we have waded through the catalogue of the manufacter that we have chosen. We have picked the unit and narrowed the colour scheme down to three colours ( Ivory, sage or light blue) . We have spent hours choosing which white goods we want and also spent ages researching cooker hoods.

We have decided to have the hob on a central island which means the extracter hood will be suspended above said hob! Well I hae to apologise for all the slips of paper with drawings on and the catalogues strewn all over the place ! move them out the way and make yourselves comfortable…. watch this spot.

If we were having Coffee : My gym buddy and I have been working very hard this week and we have signed up for another course of extra lessons to see us through to the end of the year !

Can I refill your cup or get you a calorie free treat we have some gorgeous cakes this week.

If we were having coffee: I would draw your attantion to Paul’s blog this week it is exstremely thought provoking, do read it believe me you will not regret it! If we were having coffee: I tell you that the garden is doing fine but I have no photos today because I just have not had time to take any this week Hooray I hear you all shouting!! … But hey I have some lovely photos of some of my flowers!
