    Hello Bushman 😀 good to see you 🙂 a garden eh? That’s good news!

    Hosta 🙂 love Salvia greggii ... I’ve got Icing Sugar and something that was labelled Trewithen Cerise but isn’t.

    Been to busy to get out walking but fingers crossed for next year. The garden very small but took for pots and hanging baskets. How are we all.

    Hi Bushman. 
    Good luck for tomorrow, Hosta (sorry, I'd been thinking it was Sunday today as OH is not at work).
    Hope LP is doing OK.
    Hi there Wonky.
    And the face is almost back to normal, Obxx. A bit scabby still and the lip is slightly swollen, but a couple more days will sort that. Glad you're having fun :)

    We're home to a rapturous doggy welcome and a happy OH.    Interesting place the bay but we didn't make it all the way round.  Hit solid traffic heading for Cap Ferret at the end so turned right and headed for the Atlantic coast and discovered the Lac de Hourtin-Carcans which is just lovely.   On up the coast and the ferry to Royan and home.

    It's been a good trip and yesterday we even found a lovely, plain crystal vase for Possum to fill with fairy lights for a mere 10€.   Never again may she moan about flea markets!

    OH playing golf tomorrow and I have a quiet day of pottering in mind with plants to feed and prune and more tomatoes to pick and process.

    Hope it all went well today LP and good luck for you tomorrow Hosta.  Hope they find what's wrong and you can move on.

    LG - you must be relieved to be almost normal again.   Bushman - hi.  Good to have plants to play with again.

    Shower and early night for me so goodnight and sweet dreams all.

    Jaws as Book at Bedtime?  Whose bright idea was that?😱

    Sweet dreams all .... I hope ...

    Bushman, welcome back. I’d given up hope that you’d come back. 
    We are on the tail end of winter here and it’s been very cold. Hurry up spring.

    I’m wondering what time Hosta will be up and about. Still a bit early I suppose.

    Hi Pat. 
    I went to bed at 9 and slept for an hour. I got up at 12 and watched a bit of telly and went back to bed at 1.30. I've just had a shower whilst Hubby has some breaky ( I'm not allowed ) then we're heading to the hospital ( about 1hour drive ish)
