    Evening all.
    Spent the afternoon setting my Dad’s new iPad up. There is a market for helping the over 70s with tech...and I wouldn’t fancy working in it. 
    Haven’t done any ‘homework’ today so feeling mildly guilty tonight. Supposed to be ‘nice’ tomorrow so can motivate myself with the reward of an hours gardening per hours work maybe. 
    Hope all ok with everyone. 
    My garden and I live in South Wales.

    Great Aunt Sylvia and co are up for a BAFTA tomorrow night. I expect "Get me out of here" will win yet again. Channel 4 will not stump up for a table for them, but have promised a party if they win.  She has had 100 fan letters, including someone who enclosed a cheque for £100 to buy herself something nice.  Very nice, but a strange thing for someone who has never met her to do.
    I pricked out a load of Nicotiana this afternoon.  We have staked out the boundary line, but I am still waiting for all the crap they dumped on my garden to be cleared.  I am thinking of a bit of fly tipping... on the developers desk. Seems only fair.
     Anyone any idea how much a replacement 10 year old Magnolia Susan will cost?

    @fidgetbones - 4-5ft tall Magnolia Susan advertised on the Net for £60.  Bet yours was bigger...
