Hi all. Very humid here, probability of more storms today. lots of very flat plants after yesterday, but nothing that can't be repaired. Sorry you are not walking today, fairy, was looking forward to more pictures/ OH is going to do some weeding today, so I have to collect a few weeds for her, so she knows what to look for. Good idea of yours LP., we have planned an overnight stay in Glasgow, so we can have a steady drive up there and then have a full day, with many stops to get up to Gairloch, via the west coast route.

Pdoc, an ideal to one of your favourite places. I hope that our good weather continues for you. Freshly dug new Ayrshire potatoes from the farm for tea tonight.Love the taste.
h Hello all. Another throbby night but on parade now with brds stripped, towels in the machine and frittata in the oven. Thumb soaking in hot water and iodine then another gunking and a bandage. Taking its own sweet time this thorn.
Hope lunch is good DD. Sorry you're so cold Pat. Much snail stomping here too FG. Fab hostas H.
Couldn't agree more about the mud pie palaver. I'm using up plastic cell trays till they die and then I'll switch to coir cells. For bigger seeds I already use medium coir pots and loo roll tubes. Bought compost as no leaf mold or sieved compost here yet and I have yt to see vermiculite.

Sorry about the finger Obelixx. Maybe time for some professional help? Joyce sounds yummy will you have anything with them? Punk if you don’t want to go into Glasgow itself there is a new(ish) hotel 8mins off the motorway google Crossbasket Hotel High Blantyre, if you are tavelling mid week shouldn’t be a problem.

Thanks LP. We are very lucky in that BIL works for Hilton, so gets us very cheap deals, which in the past, we often used when we went to London. Hopefully he will get us into the Glasgow Hilton, which I have often driven past, so I know it must be close to the motorway.

Just been across to our wonderful service service station and stocked up on the last of his bedding plants. Great value and supporting local business😄😄😄

I think it was Geoff Hamilton who last advocated blocking. It must have been 40 years ago, because I think the blocker is still at mums. You had to buy blocking compost at the time, then play at mud pies. It only lasted one season before we went back to pots.
Scorchio here. Still no sign of rain. I am going to put the soaker hoses on.
If I had your view, Hosta, I would never leave the place.
