    Good morning. Rain here but back to work so I don’t mind too much. @Ladybird4 thanks so much for that information re clematis, the Boulevard collection has some beauties I think I will be putting in an order with Taylor’s when payday comes! I don’t think they are too far from me so good to support local businesses ( this is my excuse for buying plants)

    Good morning everyone .PR I think it will be a knitting and reading day for me the weather is horrid.Debs clemmies are a favourite with my o h . I dare not show him anymore but I did look at the ones that LB suggested for you and there is one I really like .🤐 LB love the pic , reminds me of my Lucy Atwell books from my childhood. Must get on ,see you later .

    @Rubee I have some half barrels with obelisks in, have ordered short climbing roses for them and thought clematis would go well, the boulevard ones look perfect. I do realise they will need lots of food and water so keeping my carefully hoarded well rotted manure for those containers. Hoping it works and looks good. 
    Horrible weather out there hope you all have indoor things to keep you busy

    Morning everyone 
    Love the morning pic @Ladybird4
    Raining here too, dull cold and breezy. So glad we had a day in the garden yesterday.  It was such a warm sunny day. The forecast for the next few days is awful.
    Wednesday again already. 
    Love the sound of your barrels @debs64
    We want to have a pergola built on the back of the garage. I've been looking through some climbing Roses. Still to decide, but the Generous Gardener is a possibility. 
    Have a good day everyone 

  • Topbird sounds like you’ll have an easier time without the trees.  There can be a lot of leaf clearing. I have a tree Infront of my garden, it’s a cherry tree.  I love the blossom, but cherries can get everywhere and many leaves but it is beautiful.  LB I like your picture, very apt, not too bad at the moment but forecasted wild weather.   Lily I had a brief walk, it was raining here too.  I’m glad you had a warm sunny day yesterday.  Chive have a good day at school.  I hope it’s better weather for you.

    I finished my second scarf last night:
    Here it is draped over Boris the spider.

    OH no LB! You've dropped a stitch in the middle of the middle row....!😉😁
    Seriously though - great scarf🙂. It will keep you very warm next winter.

    Morning all. Not nice out there so I've started on some unmentionables. Hope to get them finished by lunchtime so I can have a more relaxing afternoon sorting paperwork, doing the dinner, writing emails, 🤫online garden shopping🤫 etc etc. A woman's work....

    Beautiful scarf LB, they would make lovely gifts. Next Christmas sorted 😉
    Hi Topbird, sounds like a very busy day ahead.
    Absolutely pouring down here and so very windy now.  
    Think I'll have some of my lovely leek and potatoe soup for lunch. 😋😋

    Lovely scarf LB

    SGL enjoy your soup. Leek and potato is one of my favourites.

    We had rain this morning but surprisingly it has brightened up a bit. I thought it was going to get worse. Maybe the forecast is slightly wrong
