Thank you for the sympathy about my back. It feels a bit better today.
We've been out to lunch in a restaurant. The couple I helped when he fell and had to go to hospital invited us. It was a good lunch and they are very nice.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Glad your back's feeling a bit better and that you had a lovely lunch with nice people @Busy-Lizzie
We have starlings all year round, but I think 'ours' move south for winter and are replaced by flocks from northern Europe. There always seems to be a short gap when there are none about.

Hello all. Just popping to say hi and hope all is well. On holiday at the mo, hope to catch up when we return. Swam in a glistening sea today, first time in years.

Ooh - weird pic LP, but fascinating Glad you're ok - get those goggles on Hi LG - was wondering where you were, but assumed you were busy. Have a lovely time. BL - that was kind of the people to take you out. Nice to be nice Cuppa has been had, so I'm off back out. Doing some very awkward joinery work on a side fence by the gate, which has had a temporary arrangement for quite a while. My shoulder isn't enjoying it either, and I really need about five hands to do it
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
So the government won't spent £1.5bn ( 50% more than they spent upgrading Waterloo station )providing one single rail line to the South West but will spend 10 times that on "crossrail"? ( on top of all the other rail infrastructure improvements for London )
My favourite quote: " Rail Minister Mr Johnson added: "This project is already delivering benefits for the whole of the UK through its cross-country supply chain and its UK built train fleet."
Maybe he'd care to tell folk in Aberdeen, or Newcastle or Plymouth exactly how THEY are benefiting.
I've got all the agapanthus into the tunnel, but it's going to be tight to get the cannas and dahlias in there too. I'm dumping the hedychium as, even after the summer we've just had, I've not had a single flower on any of them.
Do you need to get the dahlias in Hosta, I’ve never brought any in that were planted out in the garden, and it’s colder here I think that where you are? Big pile of mulch over they should be fine. That orange one I gave you lived out for a few years. also those you gave me are fine left out, even under all that snow last year and 4/5” of frozen soil.
