    KEF - we've had 2.3mm of rain in the last 24 hours. We've got our own mini microclimate here we rarely get any of the bad weather that ends up in Rother Valley before heading North to you. Unfortunately this means the garden isn't getting enough water!

    Good morning all.  Apart from the temperature it looks like a misty autumn morning here.  Quite oppressive though. The dog had a lie in this morning so just back from our walkimage

    Hope Woody has a good day and wins lotsimage, and that the vicarage visitors enjoy their day tooimage

    Sorry bekkie - I don't share your views on midges or their larvae - my face and neck are covered in bites from yesterday. OL I would take the rose off the watering can in case they block the holes.  Btw Lanark is only 25 mins from here and they used to have a wonderful fish and chip shop.  Probably still there but I've been good for a few yearsimageimage

    OMG......absolutely hilarious!!  OH has just gone to put his trainer on and there was a frog in it, all I heard from the hallway was screaming......so so funny.  The frog is unharmed and has been put on my garden to go and eat some slugs image

     He has been there all night, I'm just glad the digs didn't find him image

    Next time I'm in Lanark I'll give you a shout Lesley and we can do chippy lunch if you like image

    I don't use the rose at the moment as I just put the water at the vase of the plant without it, but thank you image

    Right....swimming, not putting it off any more!!

    Ive never experienced Scottish midges, i hear they are a force to be reckoned with! I dont get bitten very often so maybe that changes my view on things! image



    Love that pic OL, so funny! image

    OL - considering they like cool, damp environments I'm not sure what that says about your hubbie's trainers... imageimage

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Just shows how bad the weather is if the frogs are taking shelter! image
