    Too late @wild edges they have been dug up in a rage and put in a trug waiting for the first green bin collection on Tuesday.  That was after I had jumped up and down on them for about 3 mins whilst swearing profusely.

    As if stuff isn't bad enough: our cooker is now tripping out the house electrics.

    Now you know why you need a fire pit and a BBQ and a pizza oven in the garden @Hostafan1!!  or maybe order a takeaway?

    One of my Thalia daffs is definitely a cuckoo because it has two small round flower buds on one stem. The others are slim long buds.

    Cheerfulness?   You get more than one in a stem often but the buds are pointy.
    I'd like to see a pic if yours turns out gross. I'm not so sure that I'd appreciate a pretty one🤔 that's the kind of nice person I am😉

    Hopefully not too long to wait now. On closer inspection the impostor has 4 small round buds (on the right in the pic) On the plus side, I think the other buds are too slim to be kleenex-looky-likey doubles.

    Just noticed that the post office delivery man pulled our doorbell so hard this morning that it came off the wall.  No wondered he scarpered quick.

    it's the main Orange switch on the wall. Whenever I switch it on, the house trips out.

    Too long and too yellow.
    Is there a shortage of Thalia? Did the crop fail? Did some moron unload a truckful of mixed  bulbs into the wrong container?
