    Good morning to all.
    Chive, beautiful flowers. This part of year is my favorite in the garden.

    Hazel, good luck with buying mattress. Which delivery problem do you have?

    Lovely, sunny, windy and rather warm morning. I have some time for tea and relax before school. Afternoon is reserved for weeding, must rescue my zucchini and beetroot.

    Have a lovely day and see you at evening.

    Morning all,

    Today is the day! A dozen small tomato plants are heading for the compost bin :( 

    Should manage a couple of hours in the garden this morning and then off to the driving range with eldest this afternoon. She wants to have a hit with a view to going to play with her grandad.

    Graham’s newly fortified enclosure!  
    I got some plants reduced from B&Q too so a good trip.

    Good morning Ante, Biglad, Debs and all to arrive.

    Chive, thank you for sharing those lovely pictures. They look absolutely gorgeous. I agree with Hazel and Ante about loving this time of year. There is a little reward every morning in the garden. My little reward this morning is discovering that there had been some rain in the night - not a huge amount I don't think but enough to leave beads of water gleaming everywhere.
    Yvie, what a dreadful time you are having. I can imagine what sort of comments you will give them if they ask you for a review eventually.
    Biglad, one good thing about your tomato glut is that you could choose the strongest for your crop this season.
    Debs, I like Fort Graham. Lets hope that the little rascal doesn't break out again.
    I hope SGL's throat is completely clear this morning and Ruby, get that sprinkler out again.
    Have lovely days everyone. Ooh Chive, meant to ask, are you still on half term? Some schools around me half a two week break - unheard of in my time but there you go!

    Morning all.
    I must do some weeding before it gets too hot. 30° is forecast for Saturday.

    Good morning Busy. I think it is going to be another hot one here too. I need some more compost so I might have to go to the GC first thing.

    Love Graham's new domain @debs64 :) 

    Exactly @Ladybird4. It's all a learning curve - sowing 35 seeds was obviously too cautious as 31 germinated. I gave two of the biggest to my sister and managed to destroy a tiddler whilst pricking out :o I haven't counted them but there should be 28 remaining! Only a few are currently in big enough pots to become viable anyway so it is pointless maintaining the rest. If I bin the weedier half of them now, I've got enough left to experiment with where the best growing conditions are. It's my first attempt so my expectations are quite low ;)
