Thank you Roisin. We had a police officer round quite recently to advise on home security and he wanted to know if there really were unexploded bombs in the garden. I found the sign thrown away in an alley behind some shops in suburban London. That was in the late 1960s and I have had it ever since. The Dutch sign is from the Amsterdam Antiques Centre.
What a nice thing to say, AnniD. Our village has not had an open gardens for quite some years so the nearest I have been to opening the garden is a couple of videos submitted - and rejected - for the Gardeners’ World TV programme. My mistake was not to have me saying how wonderful the scent was of a particular plant then zoom in to me sniffing it. Dogs and children in short supply too!

You're forgiven. Just for this once (or twice). At least whilst those annuals persist in their "full glory". Lovely, by the way!
