    Well, washing up bowl aside, I thoroughly enjoyed this weeks' GW. For the first time since I can't remember, I didn't FF anything. 
    The gardens visited were interesting, but I have no idea how the guy in Clapham keeps all those pots watered.
    I loved some of the hydrangeas ( but not all ) in Carol's piece too.

    If it wasn’t called Ecover it was a forerunner delivered to our door by the fortnightly whole foods delivery van. Thinking back its name  did change around the late 70s can’t remember what it used to be calledbut the formulation was pretty much the same whatever it’s name was.

    Of course.

    That made me laugh out loud B3  :D
    As chief cook and bottlewasher in this house, I stick with  my own brand of washing up liquid....
    We never have to use 'grey water' here anyway, so it isn't something I've ever had to worry about.  Even in this unusual  hot, dry spell, we have no shortage of water  :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



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

    And, not to be indiscreet, no mechanism for easy relief! Why do certain people think clothes that are too small make them look 'fit' ?
    You need to look a bit closer ... maybe zoom in 😉😳... there’s a button flap ... some re-enactment enthusiasts and actors of my acquaintance assure me that they make things easily accessible 😶.. one chap says he wishes he could wear them all the time in preference to a zip fly. 😀

    Wow, you must have excellent eyesight @Dovefromabove (or possibly a better zoom facility) I still can't see it! My daughter used to make the costumes for re-enacters at Hampton & the Tower I shall have to consult her and show her the picture.

    Knowing what some blokes are like it looked disastrous, I used to feel sorry for the sailors with their thirteen buttons

    Dove, I remember in the early ‘70’s people used to have parties for those eco products, you ordered and it was delivered or you went to collect it from the agent, bit like Tupperware and other parties that were all the rage at the time. 

    @AnniD I think you’ll find the scar will be on his arm, have you looked there?😛😍

    Perfect continuity.

    I prefer her right side, but she’s equally gorgeous whichever way you look at her. 
    When this last series came back and she started singing I was afraid it would turn into Poldark The Musical, now she’s made an album, but it didn’t , I can’t wait for the next series.

    Her left and right eye are quite different in the picture. I would go for left side.

    I have read of beauty being a function of symmetry. Liz Hurley's face was seen to be one of the world's most beautiful at the time, according to this principle. I saw a Horizon some years ago on the maths of it. Of course, this only opens up ore questions than it answers, but it's an interesting idea.

    It's quite fascinating to take a picture of your face, cut it in two and make up a new face using two of the same halves (one side flipped with tech). So, for example, two left sides joined. I guess if the resulting picture looks pretty much like yourself, you have quite a symmetrical face.
