    Good grief Yvieimage.  That poor womanimage.  Lucky that your daughter didn't have damage to the house as well.  How on earth did they get released on bailimage.

    On a lighter note I hope you find your Mum in good spirits and that you enjoy Poldarkimage.

    Brilliant Doveimage.  You'll have to give him a name nowimage.

    Pdoc that was a good call from you and the tree surgeon.  It will also give you more time to think about crown liftingimage.

    Lovely to be able to enjoy seeing the results of your labours Wonky, rather than just feeling themimage

    Panda and Winter - ladies who lunchimage.  Enjoy!

    We've called him Robin image............................................................ image

    I've just been up to the farm shop and just popped in to the GC and got stuck there in a torrential downpour - those sticky labels are a real problem - I ended up with a lupin 'Towering Inferno', a red campion and an oxeye daisy for the edge of the Wilderness and some parsley plants as I use such a lot and mine aren't up yet.  I'm blaming Wonky for the lupin - I haven't grown them for years but she's got some and I was feeling left out image

    Now all the plants are outside on the terrace 'being watered' - hopefully the pond and the waterbuts are filling up too.

    I've also just ordered some pond snails for my pond image

    Well, just had a spontaneous parental visit from 'father in the hood', conned him into taking a load of rubble sacks to the tip! Got base board and side wall of compost bin in place, started cutting the paddling pool as liner and an almighty cloud burst over the garden! image Harrie puss ducked under the lavender and rain has stored play. Lawn sowing will have to be tomorrownow image

    certainly feeling the labours LesleyK! But yes, lovely to see it taking shape!

    Dove, I think I may be turning into you! But I guess that's no bad thing! image

    Good call on the song thrush Pdoc!

    Wow! Just watching adult robin feed baby from my bird table! From the kitchen window unfortunately, not as tame as yours Dove, think it'd cuz I'm in league with the pusscats! They are only allowed out supervised but the birds are cautious andrightly so!

    Yup Verdun, I love my food too, as do the cats! We make sure everyone has ample supplies and that way no one has to eat each other! image
