    So am I @Hostafan1  :)

    It's come over grey and damp here now ... I've got the washing in and draped it on the racks on the radiators in the study ... first taking off and putting away the lot that was draped there yesterday.

    It has been a lovely day here. With a lot of help from Moira, 20 Cannas have been dug up, foliage removed and placed in pots in the porch.

    Impressive.  Well done you two.   My undergardener is home from golf and asleep on the sofa.

    @punkdoc, There were the Tropicanna Black which were too small this Spring to go out into the garden. 
    I'm 6ft tall and that cross bar is above my head.

    Those are seriously wonderful, @Hostafan1.
    It was a good year for all the Cannas here, as well.

    They don't set viable seed Lyn. I'll give you a chunk next Spring if you'd like one.

    Hello all. Fabulous murals, Steephill.

    I've had a bad back today, had trouble pushing the supermarket trolley this morning. I had planned to shift manure and do gardening this afternoon. Weather just right for it, sunny but not too hot.

    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
