    Morning all

    no coffee till later then Dove?

    Pat I love driving but it seems each car has more and more to get used to involving less driving. I just seem to have to steer now!

    Hosta, you have tried everything why not  just give up and go to bed at 3am? You will soon be in the warm sunshine.

    morning to everyone else I have missed. ails and hair today as heading to London tomorrow for birthday treats from my children. There will also be lots of fun with all grandchildren. I have never been with them all at once!   Kew Gardens here we come. Is it RHS?

    Clever little crab, Chicky. Sounds like you're having a wonderful time image. And between you, you and Pat are expanding our plant knowledge.

    Kew's not RHS, LP, but if you're doing any part of the journey by train, pick up.one of the 2 for 1 leaflets at the station and each pair of adults goes for the price of one. Enjoy.

    On bus, no ID test today. Plant fertilisation this morning and growing media this afternoon. Migraine threatened but as usual, Sumatriptan has done it' work. Don't know what I'd do without my magic pills (well, I do know - had 20 years of migraines before going to the doctor!).

    Hope you're OK on your short sleep, Hosta. And good luck this morning, Dove.

    Hi again, 

    Just back from store after having a good old moan about rubbish IT / Sat Nav/ GPS location/ phone issues. " E commerce" guy coming from head office this morning.

    I'm sure they'll be resolved by the time I'm in again on Sunday. Won't they? 

    Sorry about the moan. Sleep deprivation does that to me. 

    LP, I'm still trying your method and it's usually helpful. Obs, I'm sticking with the magnesium pills too. Last night I just couldn't even get to sleep  despite almost falling asleep at the wheel at work 3 hours earlier.

    Maybe I just really, really need this holiday?

    To be honest, not usually, but we live in hope.

    Always have scented candles, love them, gets rid of doggy smell.No way would I pay £150 for a Jo Malone ridiculous!

  • Lily P I think the RHS card gets you a discount but does not get you in free. I can't remember how much it is now it's been a while since I have been.

  • Kew is not an RHS partner garden so no discount.  You could always ask in case.
