Pleased to say no achey muscles after yesterday's work in the garden. Hoping to plant up the trough today.
SGL, my white plant is Thalictrum aquilegifolium alba and it is a beautiful plant. I love its little fluffy bobbles.
Oh Busy, you have been working flat out and I hope that you will have time to rest when you come over to Norfolk. You must be so excited about seeing your OH again. Has there been any definite news about his joint replacement?
Ruby, my sis-in-law had a 24 hour blood pressure monitor fitted last week. She was saying on Sunday that it was uncomfortable as it fitted on her left arm just above her elbow which made moving a bit awkward. She also disliked the plasticky material it was made from. Not nice in the steaming weather.
Chive, the picture of my rhodie on my phone and laptop doesn't do the colour justice. It is deep purple with gold flashes in the centre. It looks a bit washed out on the picture I took.

OH's hip replacement is still scheduled for 2nd July. It would be awful if it was cancelled again. He's already been put off for a year, thanks to Covid. He's seeing the doc again on the 21st June. I won't be able to go with him as I'll be in quarantine.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Good morning Busy. The sis-in-law who had the monitor on last week is waiting for a left knee replacement but so far she hasn't been given any date. I do hope that your OH gets his hip done on July 2nd as arranged. A year is a long time to wait with what must be great pain and discomfort at times.

Good morning everyone .LB my OH is finding the blood pressure monitor a bit of a nuisance in this warm weather ,but its coming off at 5pm .Getting washed is no easy matter though ☺️. Busy , finger s crossed that your OHs op goes ahead ,he has waited long enough .
Good morning all. Lovely day at DA yesterday we over ran our 3 hour slot by 20 minutes but nobody was checking so it was fine. I did think it would be hard to police but it was lovely to see so many people there enjoying the gardens which were all just opening up may have to make another trip in a few weeks when everything is in full bloom.
I got eustacia vye for my daughter, a late birthday gift and naughty Gabriel Oak insisted on coming home with me, just hoping I can squeeze him in somewhere!
Food was delicious as always and it was a perfect day.
You all sound as if you have been busy bunnies. Sunny here today so off to the allotment for a few hours.
Fiancé loved his day out and was pleased to hear weddings will be going ahead almost back to normal, I am happy too to have him home with me.
Good Morning LB, Rubee, Busy & Debs and all to follow, LB The true colour of the Rhododendron sounds wonderful and your Nelly Moser is a beautiful Clematis, you can really appreciate all the details on a flower seen like that. I really like the trough with its mossy edges it is the perfect planter for those Succulents, glad you are not suffering after yesterday. Rubee It must be awkward for OH to have the monitor on in the heat, it will be nice to have it removed later hope the results are all ok, Busy Fingers crossed that your OH’s hip operation will go ahead as planned on 02nd July, Debs Sounds like a lovely day out at DA and some nice treats bought. Glad your fiancé enjoyed his experience day, have a good few hours at the allotment, I need to do some more skirting board painting, hoping for news of the carpet fitting soon.
Morning everyone, Thank you @Ladybird4 it's very pretty. Love your trough too. Gorgeous Nelly Moser, my favourite. I've always wanted an old butlers sink to plant up. @Busy-Lizzie I can imagine you can't wait to get to Norfolk and see your OH. Hope his op goes ahead. And all goes well. @debs64 glad you enjoyed your day at DA. The rose you bought your daughter is the one I want too. Glad your fiance enjoyed his day too. @Chivetalking 😉😂 Are you working today or can you relax in the garden. Have a good day everyone take care

OH had already had to wait over a year for his first operation date last July because of the normal waiting lists.
