Really looking forward to my jollies - will be spending tomorrow doing serious deadheading & moving pots. When I do the final lawn scalp on Tues I'll know it must be nearly time to go....
Busy Lizzie - we'll be sort of between Bergerac & Sarlat so I think that's quite a bit further south than you isn't it? It looks as though the weather is really picking up - had been teenager-style sulky looking at all the rain and relatively low temps you've been having recently but it looks like 30C for Wednesday - glad there's a pool!!
Are there any equivalents of the Open Gardens schemes over there? I haven't been able to find any on t'internet. I know of some of the big gardens but I like going to 'ordinary' peoples' gardens and I haven't been able to find any small ones open.
Enjoy your hols - and you too OL - and everyone else who's going away.
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down
OL meant to say outside Heraklion airport near secure car parking there is a shack..it's actually good, nice snacks and ordinary priced beer & soft drinks so if you have a long wait for coach or to check back in one of you pop up there
Fairy hope you feel better & hope you've had good time in garden Chicky.

I think there will be "library" of used books where you are going so don't take too many, pack shoes 
Someone else was going on hols & can't remember back to who it was, but you are also wished a happy hols.

Given up trying to keep up Fairy .... Just plunge straight in with my tuppeny ha'penny. Apols for bits I miss - no personal slights intended
.
Thanks everyone
Yes Yvie is on hols now and away for 2 weeks, wish I had booked two weeks now, might be the last hols for a while 
3 cases in the car, just mine to go in when I have beautified myself and can put the bits in the case
Right, off for a soak, out tonight and out very early in the morning so I'll see you all in just over a week.
Love to all those with poorly people, I will still think about you
