Thank you for starting us off, Kittykatt. I remember that my foster sister had a set of zoo animals that sound a lot like that.

Hanging the laundry is going very slowly. I'm having more problems with my joints than usual. I've got the dryer load hung, but have to clean up Germane's pee pads and that part of the floor in order to reach the small rack to hang the delicates.

Dogged you're right, and Britains made zoo animals too:

I had the farm animals which lived on a "farm" made of a wood board with buildings, (pig sty, cow shed) and a pond for the ducks, and green fields painted on it. I also had a zoo set, but they lived on the bedroom carpet, with jist a fence to keep them safe from my mother's hoover!

I think that was the set, Kittykatt. I remember the giraffe, the lion and the fence. You had some great toys, between those and the doll house. I think that I would have had the lion herding the sheep into the living room of the doll house, or some such, LOL.

The laundry is all hung and I am looking forward to being horizontal. See you later!

That's the beauty of some of the older traditional toys, Dogged - your imagination was their limit!

Helia, I had appointments and errands this morning, so I'm counting the walking in town and especially round the garden centre, as my walk for today. We have sun and it's a pleasantly warm 17 C, so I'm planning on spending time in my garden this afternoon. I bought geraniums and begonias.at the garden centre for my summer bedding and also to use as potted plants along the path in my back garden. I might start playing them this afternoon -they definitely need a good drink first!

Ditto begonias?
Plant nemesia (this year's experiment!) into a pot
Have a good look at that pot of begonias that somehow survived winter. Cut down old growth, change tip layer of compost, feed, and they should be good to go for another year!

Good morning and happy Friday!

Thanks for the start, kittykatt. Kudos to you for waking up fresh and ready to think up a new title daily. I couldn’t do it. I love toy sets like that. Have fun gardening. I hope to join you this evening in the garden.
I found my milkweed last night at Lowe’s so I have a lot of planting to get done this weekend between it and the other plants I bought yesterday.

Dogged, I’m glad computers make you happy as they confuse me the less I use one, it’s just my phone now although we have a desktop, it hasn’t been turned on in years so I don’t even know if it still works without updates).

Helia, looks like you’re upping your social game. I hope the rain doesn’t interrupt your walking plan.
