    Well I can just about say morning,  I havent been lying in bed till now Ive been in the gardend working.  I must log on before I work because I seem to spend most of the time talking to myself whilst you are all busy.  Ive never had much success with Tulips so Ive bought some this year that Sarah Raven calls perenials as she has success with them repeat flowering they are Spring Green, Artist and Greenland.  I also some Alliums due to arrive, Red Mohican, Sphaercocephalon and Shubertii and I have ordered Erythronium Pergoda and White Beauty.  I have quite a lot of Daffs but have ordered some Pheasant Eye.  Not sure where they are going yet but I am toying with the idea of buying pots for the Tulips.

    Hope everyone does okay on results days, everyone else in my family are teachers so they have been going in to see how their students have been doing. 

    Re: he who shall not be named.  He did seem really plausible so I dont think anyone should apologise for being taken in.  Ill try and catch up later when you are all online.  Bye for now.

    Yvie image - I don't think it was so much that people were taken in - think it was more that he needed friends but didn't know how to be one image

    Rain just began to spit so I've got the washing in - it's still a bit damp so I'll drape it upstairs in the third bedroom which room we use as an office.

    The pie is cooked and is cooling.  When I've draped the washing I'll make the cake ....

    Ooh Dove pass a slice over It seems ages since brekkie and Im just about to make myself a cuppa.

    We shall have to agee to differ re you know who.  There was a nasty undertone to many of his posts.  I think he was more manipulative that he has been given credit for.  He seemed to be the sort of person who liked to light the blue touch paper and sit back and watch.  Sorry but not my sort of person at all.

  • Guests gone - and paid cash, thank you very much! Washing in the machine, vacuum been out alongside duster, deadheading done, bit of pruning, bit of weeding, lot of reading posts - what next 40 winks, more HW or quick trip to nearest nursery - choices, choices?

    Hello Yvie and DD image Ooooh Dove, a piece of cake would go lovely with my brew if you could send a slice over.....don't send the rain though as I have 4 lots of bedding to get dry image

    DD Id go for the forty winks.  It sounds to me as if youve earned it. Sorry Dove sausage doesnt do it for me. Im not a veggie but not keen on sausages dont know why.  Now bacon, thats another thing.  Might have that for lunch.  Im sure your bottom wont be soggy you seem too good a cook for that.

    Oh OL didnt see you creeping in there.  I was a blood donor for years but I decided I needed it more now.  I did have quite a bit back when I had firstborn but Im still in credit.
