As for Theresa May, she presided over a dreadful hostile regime whilst at the Home Office and hasn't learned how to wind friends and influence people since. She can be Sisyphus.

We felt the same ... what a load of total numbskulls ... everyone thought they knew what they wanted but no one understood what it would take to get it. It's like folk saying that they want to be 'famous' ... famous for what ... Jack the Ripper famous or Nelson Mandela famous?
'I want my country back' ... 'How are you going to achieve that?' ... 'Vote for Brexit' they say ........... oh dear, it just ain't that simple ... you can't just turn off a switch ....... those of us who pointed out the difficulties were 'scare mongers'. They just didn't have a plan. The Secretary of State for NI has no idea of the implications of reinstating a hard border between NI and Eire, https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2018/sep/07/karen-bradley-admits-not-understanding-northern-irish-politics and the Brexit Secretary had no idea of the amount of trade passing though Dover https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-46142188.

Whichever way any of us voted I'm sure this mess wasn't the result anyone wanted. Meanwhile Boris and his new love are shacked up and plotting a take over ...

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Pat, if you hadn't said it was a caterpillar I might have thought it was a cactus! It's very pretty.
It was -5° this morning but the sun is out. I'm hoping it will warm up enough to do something, maybe pruning, outside. Forecast says 10° It was only 1° an hour ago.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
BL - OH consults 2 forecasts when he has a golf match. The popular one said 10C; the other 1C. We have 1C. It's bright and sunny and calm and doesn't look like it's perishing cold out there but it is.

The weather for all of us is difficult at the moment. I really want some change.
Having a Robin follow me around, was a great mood lifter, and he didn't mention Brexit once.
