potted up some veggies - melon, beetroot, cucumber (i should really be writing these in finnish, shouldn't i?  ::) ), and various houseplant cuttings.  sowed more lettuce/salad leaves and some spinach, coriander, basil and dill.

Yes, please. ;D

Well, it's early.  And I had to get petrol early while it was quiet on the road, but didn't want to change out of my pj's....so I put on my big coat and went to the petrol station....that turned out to be full of tradies going to work.  It did feel kind of fun to still have my pj's on but no one knew....of course I was waiting for some disaster to happen and my secret to be revealed!

It's hardly even cold enough to wear a coat....maybe they all knew....or maybe I just looked like one of those trenchcoat perverts.....ready to flash open my coat and reveal my cute little pj's!

Then I went and got a coffee....and now it's time for work.

And that is hopefully as boring as my day is going to get.  Riveting stuff.

not boring at all - i love doing things like that.  i used to go to work wearing stockings and sussies, and sitting on the tube in the rush hour, giggling to myself cos i knew and all the people on the train didn't. 

:LMAO:

I think you probably need to use the Windows character map thingy and locate them in there. There are escape codes for printing them on screen but I don't remember how you do those in Windows. There's probably a code point listing that you use together with Alt or something...

Or you could copy&paste these: Å å Ä ä Ö ö. The first two (Å å) aren't used in Finnish, except for in names and such.

You can access them through shortcuts, once you've looked those shortcuts up in the Character Map. I think there is a help file that explains how.

Went to the hardware store (a local one) and bought 8 bags of river pebbles for a front of the house landscaping job.  Petted the store cat for 10 minutes while I waited to be served in a busy store.  The cat was cute and very lovey.   :green:

Got home and spread the pebbles between the house and a border of antique cobblestones.  Looks very nice!   8)
Sounds cool, Oz.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.
