    Nice to have you  MrsG  image

    Off outside now to saw wood and paint it!

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

  • Weather much improved today after a dodgy start.  Got soaked this morning.  Sun shining now and have been able to get out in the garden.  Cleared away some dahlias, cut back and few bits and pieces and moved some too.  Looks much tidier.  Could do with cutting the grass but it's still a bit wet.  Hopefully get on with that tomorrow.  Need to get up the allotment too and make headway on the new ploy we've got.

    Just spent the afternoon with winter project - silly really  as the weather was glorious, but windy.

    Loads of jobs in the garden to do as well. Tomorrow is supposed to be OK so will have to plan those jobs for tomorrow.

    Did put in another plant though an Angelica gigas. When I looked it up there was conflicting advice about its best position so I've put it in , in partial shade, and hope it will be OK

    And I know, should have asked on here but sometimes feel I'm invisible!image

    Verdun. If you tell the police that you and "the boys" intend to sort the matter out i am sure the police would intervene.

    Just back from having my jabs. Going back to the hospital now reminds me of how much i hated the last few years of working there. I dont know how anyone gets better in these places.

    I believe the weather is going to be ok most places tomorrow, so if you can get ready to go for it because, the weather is then going to get even worse.

    Does anyone have any idea why we now have 3 threads again for general chit chat? bonkers or what.

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

    pd- absolutely bonkers image

    A woman I work with went into hospital for quite a serious operation a few years ago and came out with MRSA image

    Got a bit done outside as it cleared up a bit and to be good here tomorrow so I'll be trying to get the rest of my wood sawn and attached and maybe painted. Do you mean horrible cold or horrible wet pd? Or both....image

    Hello, Matty. I raised some angelica gigas from seed this year. I put three in partial shade, they are growing well,and two in full sun, where one got eaten by slugs.

    Next year will tell us the right answer I suppose.

    Punkdoc, Brumbull seems to want his own threads now. I'm carrying on with this one. As you said, one makes more sense, and that was agreed at the start, when Verdun suggested it. Most people agreed with it, and at the time no one dissented.

    Thanks Figrat - I'm sticking on this one thread only.

    Amongst other things I don't have the time to 'chat' on lots of different threads.

    Rather garden!

    but I do not know where to come for advice, even if I didn't todayimage

  • Hello Mrsgarden where have you been, hope all ok.

    Hope your mumis ok Kef,  sending my best wishes.

    he clematis I bought yesterday is called flammula, small white flowers which are scented, quite pretty. Its now in a large pot with an obelisk to grow up.

    Matty, If you want some advice, you can mention it on here, or if you want to throw it to a wider audience, start a new thread.

    Always remember that opinions given are just that, opinions.  There may be dissent amongst the ranks. What works for one person, may not necessarily work for another. We all have different gardens, all our own bit of paradise, and often very different.
