    Goodness knows LB🤭 I'm just happy growing them. I will definitely be keeping them though so will pot them on and dot them round the garden when they're big enough( year or two?). 
    Ante, wish aid thought of that re pictures when sorting ours out 🙄🤭😂

    Signing off for today. Night all.

    Good morning everyone. Getting ready for my stint at the Food Bank this morning. We should not need to be doing this in this day and age. In January alone we supported over 400 individuals and families and provided over a metric tonne (now I know why we do all the weighing in!) of food. This, of course does not include all the pet foods, personal hygiene and other washing materials that are not included in the weighing in process. I never fail to be impressed by the kindness and generosity of all the people and supermarkets that help by donating goods for this cause and if you are one of them, thank you.

    Morning Ruby. Thank you for the kind words. It is such a tiny thing that we do but when it is massed with all the other schemes around the country, it does restore your faith in humanity.

    Good morning all. Just off to work very chilly here but blue skies and sunshine. Van not  repaired fiancé getting a lift into work later from his SIL. He is very stressed about the whole situation. 
    I am out for tea with friends tonight. The lady will be there whose son is struggling with addiction, he is finally getting help from a mental health charity. Like your food bank @Ladybird4 we can no longer rely on the government to help our most vulnerable people. Thank goodness for people like you.

    Good morning LB, Rubee, debs and all to follow.

    LB, it is wonderful what are you doing in the Food bank, and thank goodness for all people like you. It shouldn't be necessary in these days, but you can see that every day there is more and more people in need. Thank you.

    Debs, hope it will not be stressful day at work. Have a nice evening with friends.

    It's raining, and all my plans for cottage are off. It will be day for stay indoor and reading.

    Good morning all.

    I hope it goes well in the food bank, LB. It's shocking that some people can't afford to buy food and others are so rich. Well done you.

    I had a terrible night, tummy ache. Bother it because OH had booked a table in our favourite seafood restaurant in Southwold.

    Yesterday we went out to buy another nepeta and a round hanging basket to put upside down to protect the plant from NDN's cat. He trashed my nepeta last year. Went to 3 places but the only hanging baskets were those half ones for putting against walls. No nepetas either, must be too early.

    Morning all. The heavens have just opened and drenched everywhere...and it's cold. Wrap up warm if you're going out.
    Busy, did you buy any of the half ( circle )baskets? You could always tie them together to make a whole?
    We have to pop to Sm for weekly shop and then the double glazing chappie is coming this afternoon to give us a quote. Wait for it.....😬

    Hi folks, Very cold and windy today here.  A lot of sun too, but it's to cold for me to go in the garden.  Spent yesterday afternoon putting some shelves up in the greenhouse and today I've ordered some staging that's designed to hold the garland self watering trays that I already have.  Also picked up a click and collect order from the local Morrisons. Nothing else planned.  I'm hoping that next week is warmer.   
    I empathise with those having tummy troubles, hope you all feel better soon.
