I've just finished another shift in the garden 8am-4pm
I tell you, they don't pay us gardeners enough I'm ever so slightly achy
Got a whole lot done in the purple and white garden though, so I am very happy. Will list details on other thread if anyone is remotely interested...gorgeous sunny day all day here, everything is going crazy in my garden now, especially pleased with my climbing roses which I trained along my fences last autumn and this spring, the strictest I've ever been with them and they are rewarding me with flowering shoots the entire length like rows of little soldiers
Hectic but wonderful weekend with lots and lots of cuddles
New tree was planted as well.
Just spent a required half hour in garden - well was longer maybe about an hour - BUT big thing is I feel OK after it. Still doing battle with pruning a Malvern Hills rose - just do a little at a time - needs to be done as arch is held up by string, tent pegs and 'spiders' and can't consider n arch until it is 'tidy'. But did do oher stuff first MH rose is not a priority
My good news is that I don't have to visit the hospital any more apart from routine appointments - dressings and 'patch' is now at a stage that can be dealt with my GP practice nurse.
Sorry just can't catch up on all doings and whatsits for 3-4 days, but have been looking in on other threads from time to time.

Yes please Wintersong
Matty, that's lovely news
And I'm celebrating - at last I've made sense of the knitting pattern neck and shoulder shaping and it's turned out right
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Good news Matty. I hope I get some too in the morning when I see the physio lady. maybe she'll say I can go back to work.
Dove: you're soooooooooooo good at all those posting thingys.
Hostafan - Thought you'd like the picture

Hi all!
Great news, Matty - and so pleased you enjoyed your weekend (of course you enjoyed your weekend!! How could you not?
)
Fingers crossed for your meeting with the physio, Hostafan.
Dove, if there's any Guinness cake left, I'd love a slice please...
Virtual cake is wonderful for those on a diet. 
Art class this morning, but got a little gardening done this afternoon when the sun drove some of the mist away. Veg beds look more promising.
Thinking about packing for Ireland; I feel compromises coming on; getting everything crammed into my small rucksack could be difficult...
