    Done - he's gone

    No complaints here about the weather, either. A day or so of really useful rain and now the sun's come out again. And - biggest plus of all - it's not windy. It seems to have been permanently windy the last few months but we've had a couple of weeks now when it's just been a light breeze at worst. Perfect  :)

    Morning all.
    A bit misty earlier but pleasant now.
    DD, being busy is a good sign :)
    Fairy, the rainy season will start when the schools close at the end of the month.
    Yes - a few weeks time !  :D
    One of my little chrysographs iris opened this  morning - one of my favourite things

    They look particularly good with some raindrops on them - maybe later  ;)
    Enjoy the trip chicky. Have your thighs returned to normal now?  :D
    I meant to say - to all of you who watch Beechgrove on Sundays - there's a lovely little alpine item near the end. The white trilliums and the little oxalis are stunning  :)

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



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

    Phew!  B)<3

    @Fairygirl .... our plan didn't work ... the rain has started and one side of the shed is swathed in bubblewrap and sticky tape ... Daniel Deronda is under there as well  ;)

    It's turned so dark I've had to put the lights on in here ... now I'm writing a shopping list and heading for W'rose so that when the rain stops (?) I can get outside again ...

    That's a stunning colour, FG. You're sure it's not actually made of velvet?

    Morning all, After a beautiful sunny day yesterday we had heavy rain during the night so the garden is happy.  Cloudy this morning.  Planning to go to Dorothy Clive Gardens today to admire the laburnum  tunnel but it's raining there at the moment so not sure if we will go.  Nothing else planned for the day.

    Enjoyed your weekend everyone
