    Purpleralliam , not been to Newark show for ages , nice collection of plants 
    Same as Easton garden have been once but ages ago , must try and visit again 
    Did feed the pots today
    Also clean cars this morning 
    Neighbours from side and back came round for a drink on front lawn for a couple of hours this afternoon , could be classed as gardening as they are going to water pots and g/h when on holiday next week

    Well this morning the under gardener ( hubby) and I have mown lawn, planted sweet peas in two spots (still a tray left🤔) and planted up the tree stump garden. Am very pleased with the way it's gone.😁

    Potted on some osteospermum cuttings, planted out a salvia "Trenance ". Watered tulips and other plants in pots and dahlias etc.in greenhouse. 37 degrees in there, l am shading as best l can ! Too warm to do much else, so time for tea and biscuit.

    Hi there, can you tell me if the Newark Show would be enjoyable for me to take my wheelchair-bound Mum to tomorrow? Are the paths quite flat, and how busy was it? Just a thought...

    More pottering - far too hot to do anything else. Was going to empty 3rd compost bin but when I checked it was half empty, so abandoned that task. Now on the prosecco.
