Busy week

It's a busy week here at Balmoral Towers: this week we migrated the ecommerce server at work to a new platform.

For those of you who don't work on the web, that'll be a random selection of odd words that mean nothing. For those that do, you'll appreciate how big a job that can be. And the fact that we're left with very few problems is a huge relief to all concerned, mostly me.

However, it's left me exhausted, what with that, the move and the usual stuff of life. I plan to hit the new, gorgeous pool today if possible. And after yesterday's sausage and mash extravaganza, I have enough mash to make Nigella's cottage pie. It's all austerity Britain here now we have an enormous mortgage, make do and mend etc.

Dr G isn't keen on my idea to turn the front garden into an allotment, but as we need to save money, I can't see why I've got to mow something that's not earning it's keep. I hate mowing anyway, it's like hoovering the lawn. And with the possibility of home-grown veg being right outside the front door, I can't see why not.

This is credit crunch Britain. Flowers and lawn are all very well in the NICE years but we need to make money and I don't intend to spend what little we have on veg if I can grow it myself.

So before I lead you all in a sing song, just remember:
Keep Calm and Carry On.
