    A wild and wooly night here too, with rain, but dry this morning. I pruned a couple more roses then went to the Doc as I have a small hard lump on my head, had it for a while, but it's sore. Son said I should ask the Doc. Anyway, it's only a cyst, a little inflamed at the moment.

    I need the trailer, Obélixx so I must dump the manure in the veg garden. It came from outside anyway from the pile in the paddock.

    I always get GW late because of being in France. Can't read it online as there is no Internet signal in the bedroom and I like to read it in bed with my morning tea.

    Having said that, GW has just arrived!

    My copy arrived last week @Hostafan1. ... we were particularly impressed by the ‘build your own potting bench out of pallets’ ...it’s nearly as swish as yours 😉... OH has plans ...

    I've not ventured that far @Dovefromabove. TBH yesterday's winds were nothing unusual " for these parts" 
    Little bit worse than usual here ,coming off the Moor with no protection. We had never seen the telegraph pole swaying like that.

    Glad you’ve survived it @Lyn 😊 ... you’ll better tell them it needs a few of those wire cable ‘stays’.

    @Hostafan1 Mine just came this morning while I was in town paper wrap but with a reproduction of the front cover picture on it. If this is what caused the delay in switching away from plastic I would have been happy with a plain paper envelope. High time GW got it's act together.

    Don’t think GW can be held responsible for delays in receiving the RHS magazine 😆

    Ok ok you know I mean GW getting rid of the plastic sleeve  ;) & the large number of irrelevant inserts while they are at it.

    I was more concerned about the misplaced apostrophe. ;)
