    It was the in thing Tina in the eighties  - ex partner had a lovely floral 'vine' round the bedroom which his ex wife had done.....had to show him the error of his ways in keeping it for 6 or 7 years after she'd gone!

    Mind you, it wasn't as bad as having to look at  the nice family photo of them both on the bedroom wall...imageimage

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



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

    Pennies sorry if i have offended you. I have a rather infantile sense of humour. Now to Cannas. My favourites are Durban [ dark and stripy sometimes sold as Phasion ] look wonderful with sun behind them. Also love Pretoria and General Eisenhour.

    BL love your description of January. Red wine then whisky for me followed by day in bed.

    I feel some seed ordering coming on.

    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    Goodness me!!!! Was it as far back as that FG? Just put my thinking cap on and it had to be done late 1990's.  I'm always lagging behind.  I should add that the bathroom is decorated, well emulsioned/painted, regularly.  Just needs a little facelift - like me. image

    Will let you know if my ruse works Panda.

    Don't think anything you said could have offended anyone Punkdoc image 

    Posts from Pennies were rather enigmatic - not sure what it was all about,  but given that it was only polite to respond to a newcomer I think we did well in the circumstances - it's hard to know what to reply to vaguely religious references image

    Pennies is busy talking to her/himself on other thread. image

    Panda, so sorry. Forgot to wish you a speedy recovery.  It's all these viruses you know. 

    Puncdoc, you certainly were offensive until you mentioned Cannas. Bought two earlier in the year and slowly they died.  Have one 'leaf' left.  Will stick to what I know next year. image

    Hooray - my bulb order has arrived - hopefully will be planting tomorrow  - alliums (white) various tulips, pots are waiting, and some large flower head daffs for the family border, Remembrance of my old dad.

    Have just re-boiled a batch of pear and vanilla jam as it was more like a sauce - seems thicker now, if it doesn't set it'll be for icecream/yoghurt treats

    Frustrating when you forget to say something and can't go back to first post

    Panda hope you soon begin to feel better.

    Tina- think you meant to say 'you weren't offensive'  to punkdoc!!! image

    Yes - hope you're feeling better soon Panda. It's all that bamboo you're eating...image
