Cold and pouring down here. At least the dog is in no rush to go out. She settled down and slept through the last of the fireworks. I swear they get noisier every year.
Chicky I hope you are well wrapped up this morning. (shivery face). Glad your worms are wrapped up now Clari
MrsG at least your OH will check for upside down fireworks next year
Hope you get our paperwork sorted DD. Like you I would like to know why we should cut the leaves off hellebores
Good morning all, first frost here and dahlias are clobbered. Sad but it seems to happen every year.
DD, cutting off old leaves leads to fresh new clean growth, and displays the flowers better. Not absolutely essential, but the old leaves eventually blacken anyway, so get them off sooner rather than later. Here I can do it over the next few weeks, so no rush yet.
Have a problem with a switch on my central heating but am just about keeping it going as I wait for my man to come.
Off to lunch with some ladies I used to work with. Friend coming too. Great that we can keep up all these old friendships.
Cutting leaves from Hellebores, I have one flowering what do I do about that
Runny sorry to hear about the planned development our last move was because of a housing development a three story house was built overlooking our bungalow with a great view into our bedroom and dining room. They obtained permission to build on a fault line that we were told nothing could be built on all objections from us & neighbours were ignored.
Good morning all Hazy blue skies and white fluffies here - looks like it's going to be a lovely day. I won't be gardening 'cos I'm travelling down to Suffolk to attend an old friend's memorial service
Then I'll be back as the farm shop are holding their Turkey Tasting at Notcutts Sage evening - thought I'd go along to lend a hand and see what else I might be tempted by
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Morning all. Wet here too - so much for the frost. I went and covered the car and the canna last night so at least they'll be warm and dry...
Woody - hope you get the heating sorted properly soon - I was without mine for three days last week but fortunately it was mild. Good excuse for lots of tea as well as being a 'lady who lunches' though
KEF- perhaps the house will disappear into a large hole at some point...incredible how some planning is allowed.
Off for a quick look round before I go to t'mill. Stay warm and dry
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Good morning. Heavy frost here...no one to blame but myself...should have used a torch at 11pm and gone in the garden over the last couple of weeks ( the only time I've had!, strangely I chose sleep instead).

Have a great day whatever you are all doing.
KEf, you could take leaves off now, it will cause the plant no problems and your flowers will stand proud.
Woody thanks
will do.
Sorry to read of proposed builders plans. It can really affect you. I know
Hope you get a result finally DD
Dove enjoy your lunch
Stay cosy,dry and warm everyone
