    Yvie - I just use the one for Chrome, but if you're using a different server, that's of no use to you! Most of them have a free adblocker though so just have a look in your settings, or google it and see what comes up.

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    That is a lovely site Chicky - they will be so satisfying to eat. I don't grow much veg as very labour-intensive/high fail-rate with all my slugs and other creatures, but have done a few pots of tomatoes and carrots this year.

    Yvie - I just use AdBlock.  Free to download.   Works well for me.  Glad your new PC is an improvement.

    Chicky - lovely veggies.   It'll be a while before we get any fruits from my labours - toms, chillies, squashes, sweetcorns, brassicas and onions so far.   Need to work in loads of compost and manure to improve moisture retention as our drought is continuing and we've only had 4" of rain since mid Jan.  The cattle farmers are already having to take feed and water to their beasts in pasture this year.   Not good.

    Feeling very sad image. Not sure I'm going to be very good at this remote mum thing image

    I know mine aren't as far away chicky ( one in London and one in Scotland) but it's remote to me here in Devon. 

    I feel your pain, really I do.

    She'll be back soon enough Chicky and has great adventures ahead of her.    Have to let them go to keep them close.   Hugs for you whenever you need them.

    My mum says she still remembers the day I left home and that was 42 years ago.

    I guess it is just something mums and dads don't get used to.

    At least she will be back Chicky and it is so much easier keeping in contact now, than it was in 1976.

    Punky hugs.
