    Well, that’s the knitting of the Aran jumper for @WonkyWomble’s lovely hub all finished ... sewing it up tomorrow and wool for OH’s next jumper will arrive on Thursday. 😊 
    If the weather doesn’t warm up he’ll need the Aran to keep him warm at his daughters July wedding 🙄

    Hi everyone, been busy again, there are some advantages to living in the London suburbs. We spent the weekend, in town for the open gardens/ garden squares, lots of places not normally open to the public, saw an amazing roof garden in the city, and went to 3 others on the bounce at the Temple bar & inns of court. Amazing that there is a 3 acre garden right in the middle of where all the legal eagles train.

    Evening. Hope all is well.
    Pat, when you wake, keep going you two - you are doing great. 
    Had a life admin day today plus started tidying the ‘spare’ bedroom. Is it a study? An ironing room? A craft room? Still not sure! 
    Not long until tonight’s installment of The Planets so will get a pot of decaf and maybe open the box of chocs (that came out as chicks - oops!) I had as a thank you present from a work colleague last week. (Milk Tray - so get your requests in now!) 

    My garden and I live in South Wales.

    Just watched Carol Klein's garden series with John Massey of Ashwood Nurseries in South Staffs. His private garden was absolutely beautiful and he came across as a lovely man. Liked the programme very much - afraid he beats Monty hands down.

    I suspect it’s not a job or a commitment he wants  😉

    Morning all, persisting it down, (I know I know I DID ask for "some" rain) Dove I thought you would realise because of the exclamation mark I was joking about the artist, they are beautiful, on my wish list when I win the euromillions, and have the stately home to hang a couple.  Obelixx, every time I get something wrong people say, "Oh, well what do you expect at your age", yet we have 60 year olds having babies.  My Hubbies (now late) uncle had a successful operation to remove a large bowel cancer in his late 80s.
