Morning all... Glad things in camp verd are looking up! Well what does the weekend bring? Gotta plant up some seedlings so need compost and pots lol..... Hope the weather holds
Glad to hear your Mum's doing so well Verdun - stroke treatment can work wonders if you catch it early enough Hope she's soon home and comfortable again.
As for younger brothers ........... been there, and of course although I'm the eldest I'm the girl .... and it's a farming family ............ so although I'm good for doing the 'being there' stuff, if there's a decision to be made you can imagine who thinks that's his job!!! Well, just lately it's been pointed out (not by me) that he needs to do an equal share of the running about and dashing to hospital in the middle of the night and on Christmas Day etc, and that decisions should be shared - there was a mini-explosion but the point has been taken, and I've done a bit of sitting back and letting him do more visiting etc. Hopefully your brother will share a bit more of the day to day stuff now Verdun.
I've just driven OH to work as he spent a while yesterday evening making a chalk board sign for the first of the local asparagus which will arrive at the Farm Shop this morning and he couldn't take it to work on his bike - we'll be having local asparagus for supper!!!
Mrs G - lovely garden
And Hurrah!!! At last the Saharan Sand has left us - the sun is shining and the skies are blue I shall spend the day in the garden
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
I get it the other way round, being the baby of the family, get bossed about but still do most of the running around. Talking of which, I'm off to see big sis this morning I
Still even tho i was up late i've had the best nights sleep i've had in a few weeks.
Hugs to Verdun hope your mum feels even better this morning

Hi Verdun, so very pleased your mum is getting better, that's great news. Hope she gets to go home soon.
Very best wishes and hugs to you both xx
Really must go to bed now......fell asleep on the sofa.....haven't done that for a while
Great news, Verdun - have been really hoping things turn out well. Look after your Mum - lots of hugs will be required
Good Morning.
Great news Verdun
Younger siblings 
At least entertaining the hospital staff & Mum saved your plant from the compost heap.
MrsGarden a good size garden you've got, bet you've had fun making it "yours".
Chicky you were up late.
Mikey, it's such a thrill when things germinate.
No mist today, but rain forecast, hope it holds off until pm I've pruning to do.
Have a great one folks.

Verdun, love to your Mum.
Gardening gear on here, and off to attack some shrubs at M's. Soz' prune not attack.
Sun out now. 
I'm glad your mum is getting better, verdun.
It's grey here, so I'm still under the duvet. I'm debating whether to get up and make porridge. New herb bed to make today before it rains.
