Looks like there have been some brave souls out in their gardens today. Absolutely horrible this morning and brightened up just when I started doing the h*******k. Typical!!
Winter song - those books do sound good. Love a good gardening book. Saw the great British garden revival this evening. Still not convinced about Dianthus.
Quick hello before bed just so you know I've not left you all again
Not had time to catch up today so hope everyone is ok and new babies and mummmys are doing well (and daddys of course because as we know they have a hard job supporting ).
Well the wind was due to arrive late afternoon, it didn't arrive so I was quite pleased that we had got away wth it, silly me........it was waiting until bedtime and is now blowing a gale and once again I feel like Dorothy!!!
When I came back from shopping Me Fox was ripping all the rubbish out again, I had to stop in the road to clear it off the drive, and he just stood at the gate whilst I cleared it! I told him not to take liberties or his next next meal could be small, sharp and metal. Just joking, we would never do that.
I am going to ring the council offices tomorrow to see if they would accept a wheelie bin if I bought one. Has anyone got these, and are they fox proof?
I have been so busy today, non stop, finally got my breakfast yoghurt at 4pm. Its all go at the ranch.
Also wanted to say that I will answer my emails and pm's soon. Sorry to everyone that I havent replied to, you are all so kind.

Hope you are getting a well-earned rest now Lyn. Wheelie bins are generally fox proof unless they blow over. Your fox is a bloomin' nuisance so It would be a great help if the council let you have one.
I'm still awake because as LilyP said it is really scary out there tonight. I keep hearing crashes and I can only think of the roof tiles. We don't have a greenhouse but both neighbours do. Fingers crossed for your greenhouse and trees LilyP.

Night night all x
I have gone to bed with sandbags tied on
Actually it's quite scary out there, as wild as I have ever heard it
Will probably spend the whole night worrying about our trees many of which are very old. And the greenhouse, only just fixed it
Tempting to go out with flashlight but OH forbidden as it is too dangerous, fingers x

No wind damage in my garden this morning, I do hope you can say the same (everyone) and those foxes need to behave themselves Lyn

Yes there is a famous bridge in Paris with the lovers' locks...and a pile of keys at the bottom of the Seine
Well, here's to a good morning everyone
Good morning Wintersong
and any/everybody else who's around 
I hope there's been no more wind damage - it's pretty blustery here in Norfolk, but not as bad as it has been where some of you are.
