Shopping done!
Trying out a cafe I havenβt been to today, trying out Drip cafe today.
Hope the coffee is good here.
Not too big of a place here and Iβve taken a front window seat to hopefully see more of the sun.
Brain no worky today. No think. NONE.
Except cravings for an HSP but I had one yesterday so brain is gonna have to think less about that
You're an adult (I'm assuming) so there's absolutely nothing stopping you from having a second HSP, it just won't be as good as the first :D
Llab is out past beddy byesβ¦
I wore sandals when I went out. Sorry. π
Also, i went to the italian supermarket and while there bought a block of nice milk chocolate, I had one square, nibbled it slowly and threw the rest away. It was so delicious.
Bruh, why did you throw the choccie away πππ
otherwise i would have eaten it all
it's bad enough i just ate 4 nougat sweets
You did what now?
So⦠new fancy schmancy washing machine.
Where everything is electronic and painful. I just want to dry off something and check it without having to wait 2 mins for the door to unlock.
At least Iβll be saving water for the environment. Gyah.
That sounds like my old LG steam washer/dryer. The door lock delay was super frustrating and I can't say I ever liked the thing. I ended up going back to a top loader and drying rack and donating the combo unit to an animal rescue.
It might have something to do with heat. Some don't allow you to open them until it's safe due to steam.
Market run complete. I have interesting sausages
Does anyone know where there's good turkish restaurant in the Northern suburbs?
Sydney Rd is a nightmare so avoiding that. Not after kebabs unless they serve other stuff.

Gardening question (I'll post it to garden thread also)
This is a 60yo hydrangea. Mr P wants to save it, as it was planted by his Nan. But it's had the outlet air from the split system blowing right at it for years and it's clearly struggling. It also used to have an apple tree for shade but that was removed years ago. He's wondering if he should/could move it without killing it. As you can see, he's already started π
Put it in a big pot with a 50/50 garden soil & compost mix. Put pot in shade to semi-shade and protect from excessive wind. Water well and regularly. If you like, after a few months dose with a hydrangea colour fixer as flower colour depends on ph of soil and can be adjusted. Feed once a year with ordinary general fertilizer. Cut back hard after each flowering season. Hydrangeas are fairly tough little buggers so can cope with a bit of neglect but do need protection from too much sun and do need enough water. Some snail bait is a good idea while it's getting adjusted to its new living conditions. Great patio plants if protected from too much sun.
Thankyou for this. I think Mr P had pretty much decided he was going to move it but had a moment of doubt π

Attempts to time my afternoon walk between showers were a complete and utter failure, we had to abort early. I was able to take off my wet-wool smelling jumper and am now just a bit damp, but Mr Woof had reached Soggy Doggy status and has been tied into his bathrobe.
