Thank you @Chivetalking Glad your mum had a lovely day. I need some new pots @debs64 Clematis sounds lovely. Oh heck @Songbird-1 Naughty blackbirds 🤦♀️
Absolutely brilliant wasn't it SGL? Hazel, Have you by any chance put any fresh compost or mulch around your plants. I only ask because they are like magnets to blackbirds and they love rootling around flinging it all over the place looking for food.
Chive, it must have been so nice taking your Mum out in the car for a run. That was one thing I loved doing with my Mum. We used to go to every garden centre in the vicinity and places like Bodnant Gardens, Ness Gardens, David Austin's rose and plant garden at Albrighton to name but a few. She loved being driven.
Debs, I'm with you. I'm a plantaholic too. To quote Oscar Wilde, I can resist anything except temptation!

@Songbird-1 there was a post on here saying blackbirds were causing havoc apparently looking for mud for their nests? Could you provide piles of mud in strategic places?? Just a thought.
Chive, I meant to say that your suggestion is an excellent one and I will explore that. I don't really mind going to the tip though as my favourite garden centre is in the lane that runs parallel to the road the tip is in.

LB That sounds like an opportunity not to be missed, taking stuff to the refuse centre and picking garden treats up on the way home. Those are lovely memories to have, it’s nice to share those experiences together. Mum would definitely love David Austin roses, must be a fabulous place to visit.
Chive, it was wonderful going there. The perfume from the roses filled the air the whole way around the grounds. It was bliss. I am going to sign out for tonight people, I have a date with the Mastermind Final. I will see you all tomorrow - hair cut at 09:00 yippee!

I’ve been asleep hours, really needed that. LB I hope you enjoyed your time in the garden. Chive enjoy your visit with mum. Yvie stevie. good luck with the wisteria, lovely when in bloom. Hazel sometimes shopping trips can be a bit hit and miss. I remember going for shoes and getting a blouse. Hazel I haven’t seen my dentist either it’s been a year now. Chive years ago I had an interview at David Austin roses but found it too far to travel. Lily I feel much better for my sleep. I went straight to sleep after lunch with Rubee and oh. Goodnight everyone, sleep well.
Hazel That will be lovely to take your mum out to her favourite places, something for you all to look forward to. Hope tomorrow is a better day, RosieBB I hope all went well with your tests this morning, you needed that sleep this afternoon. What a shame it was too far to work at David Austin, but a sensible decision made. Hope tonight is a better night, Goodnight All.
@bluebellsinthewild hope all went well with your tests this morning. You must have been very tired this afternoon, do hope you sleep well tonight though.
It certainly was @Ladybird4 Will say goodnight too. Sleep well everyone sweet dreams
A very good morning everyone. This will be me this morning!
I hope that everyone had a good sleep last night and that you are all looking forward to lovely days. Going out this afternoon for tea in the garden with one of my quiz team friends so naturally the sky is cloudy! It may improve. 🤞🏽
