    But they may well have assumed Chauvin would get off .., they always have before ... they thought they were above the law.

    I believe the girl was shot after the verdict but yes, they do seem to think the law is not the same for everyone and local rules and habits still apply.

    Afternoon folks,  Have been on Nanna duty for a couple of days so shattered today.  Have managed to pot on some Snapdragons and Rudbeckias this morning.  Still have quite a few seedlings to sort out but they are not ready yet.  We have had a light shower of rain this morning but not enough to make a difference.  Everything is so dry and the water barrel is officially empty.  No rain forecast over the next week or so, whatever happened to April showers.
    Hope everyone is OK.

  • Hi everyone,
    Hope everyone is ok and sending hugs to those who need it.

    So the good news is that my shed/greenhouse combo is finished! I have just put together some racking and when I have finished work I will move my seedlings and pots in there. I have got lots of borage and zinnias on the go and then have some echiums and sweet peas and morning glory sown in drills. Will see what space I've got and I may have a rummage through the seed pile and see what else I can grow now  I have got the space. The lad that built it for us finished it this morning and he said to me did you want hooks for your tools so he has hung up all of our forks and spades shed side so we have more room to move around which is great!! Just cant wait to get in there and "potter"!!

    Just a little photo for you - Sorry I cant seem to rotate it and its the right way up on my screen??? I am going to paint the inside wall white to reflect even more light back in....

    The borders are starting to look lovely and things are starting to emerge. I mulched the front garden with compost over the weekend but sadly the neighbour's cat has been scratching around in it so need to get things in the ground so he can no longer get to the soil.... We also strimmed and mowed the grass, first cut of the year. It looks so much tidier and makes the garden look so much bigger its amazing... Excited for the summer now! The soil is so so dry with no rain and none on the horizon, I never thought I would have to water daily in April!!!

    Isn't it called "culberbility" when you can be tried for the crime you witnessed.   Dyson never made  Hoover's, Hoover made them, Dyson made vacuum cleaners

    Guess what I’ve been doing ... plus potting on a foxtail Lily, pulmonaria and half a dozen pelargonium  cuttings.  Where am I going to put them all?

    Do you do your potting on in your kitchen Dove? I told you that we were sisters from another Mother,you have almost identical kitchen units and the metro tiles, except mine are the same colour bad the units

    Not bad units, same colour as the units!!!

    No I did the potting on outside @Nanny Beach but it was too windy out there to leave them unprotected ...they had to sit in the kitchen until I’d made space for them in the studio with the others.
