Are you using a phone Stacey? I have never been able to do icons or post pics from my phone - have to use my tablet for that. The tech team knows its a problem, so maybe a fix is around the corner.
if you know the symbols (eg semicolon, close bracket for a winking smilie) then you can type them in "longhand" and they come out as smilies when you submit the post. As yet, I have not worked out what weird combination of symbols produces a smiley in a party hat though
Bad news here- just discovered one of my box balls has been decimated by blight. Which means that the others are probably living on borrowed time. This is a double shame as I use box alot, as deer don't eat it, and can't think of many alternatives that they will leave alone (they nibble yew).
Oh well, another lazy afternoon. Reading DI Banks book whilst eating leftover Christmas pud and custard. Hubby is in the kitchen saying he's planning a suprise for dinner so if you don't hear from me it's probably because I've been poisoned.
Hope everyone had a good Christmas and wishing you all a very happy new year! Can't wait to send the last family and friends home and start making plans for the new year in my garden.
Landscaping the veg plot and erecting a new greenhouse as soon as the weather allows, with more planting and one large bed to dig out and redo..oh and I got a new addition to my garden this year, he's called Flynn, he's ten inches high and absolutely adorable. I hope he likes gardening because he's going to be in the garden all year...
He looks so like a little bitch we had years ago - her name was Yo-yo (because she went up and down a lot). Her mother was a miniature wire haired dachshund and her father was probably one of the few Jack Russells to have been run over by a horse and cart in the last 50 years.
She had one of the sweetest natures of any dog I've known and was great fun - a wonderful companion for my daughter who was seven years old when Yo-yo joined us as a tiny puppy.
If Flynn is anything like as lovely as Yo-yo you have a very special little dog

Fish pie in the oven, lots of tiny Brussel sprouts prepped - I'm hungry - only about half an hour to wait
