Hows your bank holiday forcast looking and plans?

Post by cordyman »

Really looking forward to the bank holiday break and longer weekend, been flat out @ work this week :cry:

After a wet Friday its looking like great growing and gardening weather indeed

low winds, sun, and comfortable temps, really can't complain for a bank holiday!

I want to get the rest of my painting done, the shed has needed the other side painting black since I did the front in March 2012, the summer was such a washout never got chance to do the rest, every good spell in the garden was major catchup and maintenance time. Decking rails need touching up too, and the boards need a restain.

Finally have my climbers to plants out, and quite a lot of little specimens i've picked up over the last two weeks. Looking forward to planting this stuff the most icon_cheers

Not forgetting many cold German Pilsners for "rehydration" drunken_smilie1 drunken_smilie1

My first weekend in London in 7 weeks, I guess I'll spend it sleeping mostly :lol:

The forecast's not looking too good, but we should get at least one 18C day with some sun.

My husband is dragging me up a mountain on sunday, his idea of fun not mine :roll: . I have agreed as long as there is either a) a nice tea room at the bottom or b) a pub :lol:

The rest of the time I'll be in the garden faffing about at my leisure.

It's Spring bank holiday which was formerly called Late Whitsun Bank Holiday after Frogmella Van Der Whitsun who was the founder of the Highland Fling, a dance on swords that Scottish people perform to cut their toenails.

What is it in America?
