Any Bank Holiday Plans?

Yes part of the paddock has grown, however still a very poor offering on what I took the ponies off in December!!
Luckily they don't require lots.
 
Ticked off the partial new route.
See what happens tomorrow, still got chance of the early morning. It's just the weather isn't motivating if the sun is behind the black clouds 😂
Not moaning as we do need some light rain, I have had to move the energizer as physically couldn't get the stake in the ground where it was.
 
Beautiful day here, I'm going to spend most of it outside once I've settled my huge breakfast. I had golden syrup porridge and marmite on toast and coffee. Delightful. I'm giving the Fuzzy one a makeover and trimming feathers etc. Mr T might even knock a few posts in.
 
Just had to come back on here to check id done everything I listed. Well everything is done and a lot more besides.
Lambs are spending there first night out in the field. I can have an extra hour in bed tomorrow morning, i don't have to get up at 6am. Whoopi. I can also go to bed earlier at night.

We are approaching another bank holiday. I may actually have to work monday. Other than that no major plans. Maybe mow the lawns. Plant some courgettes and repot tomatoes. Non of the runner beans, french beans, cucumbers or peppers I planted have germinated. They were outside in pots for 2 weeks, but it's been so cold. Only just got them in the greenhouse last weekend as I finally cleared out the greenhouse tomatoes from 2 years ago. Planted nothing last year.
Hard to believe right now that the temperatures are going to be 30°, double what they are today. We are forecast lots of sunshine too. Today is just grim although the sun is thinking of appearing.
 
Time is flying by and yes there's a bank holiday coming. Doesn't really mean that much to us as Mr T will be working anyway (he works for a Californian company and they don't have the same hols). I hope the weather is nice though then I can have a ride. Will be business as usual I think with the shops up here etc. I might treat the plants to some Baby Bio if I can find any locally - lol that can be my Bank hol task.🪻🪷🌺
 
A ride would be lovely. I'm missing it again. One of the horses went lame. Hes fine I believe now, but the girls doing her Pre A level exams so isn't riding much until they've finished. Hopefully once there done we will be able to resume some hacks.

I hope you get to ride again soon. Its a shame when you don't get chance, its great once you get going isn't it.

It’s a US federal holiday on Monday too, one of the few that align!

I’m off to my school friends kids (21 & 18) birthday party on Friday evening, and my L&L are coming over on Sunday to ride. Other than that I will most be doing yard jobs and riding, I’m borrowing a friend’s trailer to get Monkey out a couple of the days. Housework desperately needs doing, I doubt I’ll have time 🫣🤣

Knickers to housework, Monkey is way more fun! I feel your pain though, I'm lucky being here all the time, I can just do my house work as and when. I don't know if the Californian people are taking Monday off, probably not, they tend not to being part-retail related. He doesn't mind either way I don't think.

One of my forecasts shows 33° and 34 ° for Monday and Tuesday, really hope that is wrong.
It's 21 here right now and the sun has finally made a proper appearance after being grey and grim for days. I'm actually now too hot. Having been cold all morning.
I might actually have to wear some shorts tomorrow to work.

Wow that is so hot. I couldn't cope with that. Its 10 degrees here today and plenty warm enough for me - still wearing a jumper but I don't mind that. Rather be cooler than hotter. I only ever remember two really hot summers when we lived south. One of them was 1995 and it was unbearable at work. And the other was at our last house probably about 2013 and the horse flies were awful. My hand swelled up like a balloon after a bite and I got seriously worried. I think the heat made the flies bigger and more aggressive!
