    Morning all.

    Hosta, nature should cheer up because you and Lyn are still there.

    Another gardening day, sun is shining, but I'm still stiff and achey from yesterday.

    I think we should buy Bo-Jo a plane, I am sure Aeroflot would oblige.

    Thank you all so much for such kind offers. What a good bunch you are. 
    There are only certain grounds that can be objected to, eg village sustainability, road safety and environmental dangers flora and fauna. Sadly my dear Forkers I think they would smell I was up to something and I would hate to compromise you all
    If you are interested anyone can have a look

    1. Just to add to local troubles I hear that  “the Donald “ wants to extend his stay and play his golf courses in Scotland!
    Boris really is something else, what world does he live in ?

    @LilyP, read through the ecological study and see that area isn't thought suitable for great crested newts. Pity :'(

    Maybe you need to ship in some natter jack toads when they're not looking LP.   That would sort it.   Anyone got any and is near enough to ship some over to a suitable pond?  Although they like heathland so maybe crested newts would be better.

    GCN are two a penny in the West Midlands, pop down and pick a few up, no-one will notice. 😉 (Wanted our old winking face but haven't got it) Hi folks hope everyone is OK.  I've just got back from Secondborn's via Ashwoods.  Popped in to pick up some clematis feed and a Verbena Bonariensis and Salvia Amistad fell into my basket by mistake.  OOps.  I really need to stay away from that place.  Thought about staying for a scone and a cuppa but the place was heaving so I popped into Tesco instead and bought a carrot cake on offer, and very nice it is too.
    Have a good day, it's gorgeous again here.
