    I’m watching the cycle race between Liege and Bastogne on TV. I’m not sure how my knitting tension is going to turn out.🙄
    its so beautiful and green over there and occasional spring blossoms on the prunus trees. 
    We just had a fleeting fall of hail stones, then it was gone. First rain for weeks and not my fVourite type. 
    Sleep well all.

    Morning all/afties Pat. Did you get some knitting done?
    Frost overnight here, so car needed a scrape when I  took daughter to work earlier, but the sun was up and clearing it. Nice to get another dry day.
    Hope you got a bit of kip Hosta.  The trough was slightly better than those ugly planters someone did last week with three million differnet things in them  :s
    Better do my exercises and have some brekkie to keep me going.

    Morning Fairy. I'd agree those pots last week were pretty hideous, but how many times have we seen MD plant alpines in troughs? Where are all those he's planted already?

    or maybe they were so naff looking he dumped them? ( not a fan of alpines, too prissy for me )

    Morning /afternoon Pat
    Lovely sunny morning, woken a bit stiff after yesterday but ready to  crack on today
    the hole for Lady of the Lake is prepared and she has been soaking all night. Nearly all the roses getting second thick layer of horse manure. Some of them don’t look very great tho. The clematis are slowly showing me they are not dead but pitifully behind.

    Hosta, hope you keep your eyes open today Dove sorry about your three irritations!
