Just received an order from http://www.chemistdirect.co.uk/. Great site for cheap medicines, so I've stocked up a bit as I'm trying to get my First Aid and medicine preps up to scratch. Also got 180 hayfever tablets (which will last me for 2 years / summers) for £4.48! No sneezing for me!! :D

Royal Mail just delivered my pretty little radio, with the handcrank, the usb lead and the solar charger :)

ETA - and thanks to mushroom, I popped over to the Chemist Direct website, I was about to order some more dressings, thanks to this I could order them and quite a bit of stock of *ordinary* stuff at good rates. Thanks mushroom!

Well, I gave in to my crippling back pain and drafted in some help to clear out my greenhouse properly and as of today it's all organised! This means the toms, courgettes and squash plants crowding my kitchen can now be moved out and I can get on with the next phase of operation feed me (!)

Around 4am I snaffled some suckers from my BOB so they'll need replacing, but I added some more dressings and eye drops to my medical stocks...

my babies! :D
Crikey! You're brave! I haven't put my toms, sweetcorn, basil and squashes out yet, the soils still too cold, and we're due a frost or two next couple of days. :shock:
Haha, alot of people have said that, I do still have some in my conservatory just incase but the ones in the garden are growing like crazy! I made the mistake of leaving my potatoes out by accident when we had frost for a week or so but somehow they have survived and are coming along nicely! Everything is a learning curve for me as I must admit Ive never actually grown anything before! Ive got both feet in all the way now so hope I can keep it going as good as it is now! Mummy is helping me on my learning curve :D

Hope you get the good weather soon Brambles

Got myself two more butane lighters that are long enough to be used to ignite my bioethanol and anything else I do with fire outside. Also got more cleaning cloths and, as I have heard that my mother next door is under the weather with a flu bug, I have got myself some beechams (enough for three days) and some ibuprofen in case I get it myself and I need to carry on working and keeping sane.
