    Nice to see you Potty, how are your pots coming along, any photos?

    Beechgrove had failed on 'catchup tv' so will try again later.

    Not got to GC at lunchtime, too much waiting around for discussion. Over and done now.

    Later..

    Good afternoon everyone. My last post disappeared!!!

    Nice weather for ducks here. Shouldn't they be nesting by now?. This pair of mallards have been here since the beginning of march. Here in the day being fed, then back to the river at night. I assume this means they havn't built a nest yet.

    I'm going to watch Hidcote too.

    No more garden porn, I haven't got room for the plants in the greenhouse now.

    My seeds from are Premier Seeds have arrived and it doesn't matter that it's raining because some of them are going in the GH image

    Had an email to say that my new rose and Geum will be here anytime, exciting image

    Just need my Tumbling Tom seeds now from T&M, ordered the same time as the others, paid for postage but last to arrive!!

    Does anyone know if Tesco have taken over Dobbies garden centres?

    I bought a slim trowel from them yesterday, branded "dobbies select" for £4. Narrow stainless steel blade and a wooden handle, ideal for slipping in plugs or small bulbs in between things , I thought.

    It just jumped into the basket with the bread and milk.image

    Yes they have FB, it happened a couple of years ago now but gradually things are changing.  It wasn't well publicised (I wonder why!!) and I only found out as they were a customer (Dobbies that is).

  • Afternoon all no gardening for me today it has not stopped raining all day image off out now shopping at Aldi so I may just come home with some treats image

    Not feeling particularly motivated in the office today - 17:00 can't come quickly enough!

    Going to "treat" myself on my way home from work tonight though. A new wrist brace and a mister spray so that I can better water my salad leafs (if they make an appearance) without crushing them as I have a habit of doing with my watering jug.

    Til then I shall sit here and work out which food group I want to reintroduce into my diet (hoping to start tomorrow rather than wait another two weeks). Dairy or gluten? Oh the exciting decisions!

    Poor you Clarington, I think I would go Dairy, I would be missing my milk and yogurts so much if I was you but could probably manage without gluten a bit longer image I presume you don't think either of those two groups are the problem then?

    Keep smiling, not long now image

    Horrible here now after looking not bad this morning. Oh well...image

    Doc- don't strain yourself now...image 

    I saw a sign for sale recently with the Latin inscription of Don't let etc. on it.  Think I may buy it and put it on the wall of the house image

    The Hidcote prog is good - seen it a few times. Think there's a Christo Lloyd one on too if I remember correctly.

    Lovely to 'see' you Bev. Hope work is alright now image

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



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    I am convinced its yeast, apples (but not cider - phew!!) and possibly something else bread related (but potentially only certain brands - to add confusion!) I'm not too worried about adding ones that don't react first - I just want to get a healthy diet back as I'm really struggling to get enough calories into myself currently (averaging 600 a day - yesterday was 345 calories) and no offence to vegetables but I really miss a nice steak.
