Think there's a heatwave coming at the end of the week - hope you get some of it too
There's the sound of very angry robins outside - I can't see anything going on but I think it may be related to fledglings and a cat in next doors' garden - hope the robins are fierce enough to send him packing
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Don't know how you can survive on so little sleep Clari. I would be quite happy to go back to bed this morning but the dog won't let me.
Hope the knee is feeling better this morning Yvie.
More plant moving to do before the forecast rain and wind later. So far about 25 plants have been moved/potted up and just another 25 to go. Wish me luck.
Lesley - its through not having the choice! Other half woke me early on Sunday morning (I didn't need to be awake until 10:00) because when he's awake everyone else has to be. He woke up first this morning too and prodded me to inform me that I make tea in bed during the week! After tea was dully produced for his lordship he dropped the comment (I mentioned having a lazy day) that there was no point me having a day off if I was too tired to do anything.
Isn't that what days off are all about?
Don't you worry though: I'm going to ramp up the requests about getting the greenhouses sorted (take one down, lay new slabs, install drainage and electricity, put two up) which he ought have no trouble doing when I wake him up an hour earlier each day by sending the dog in.
If he resists the efforts in the garden I have option two: my company "vehicle" needs some tlc he'd be able to do if it sits on the driveway. He does not enjoy it being on tte driveway!
Right: there's a mountain of washing and dusting to do and I don't think he's left his wallet around to hire a cleaner. See you all when the kettle gets put on!
Morning all think I've caught your man flu Pdoc! feeling a bit grotty! Not as bad as if I were an actual man you understand, that, my OH informs me is a very serious matter! but sniffles and a cough so cheers!
Hoping some sunshine will fix it, anyone got any? Cloudy here, same clouds that have been here for months I were think!
Homework day for me this morning , that's home-work not house-work, thank goodness
Dove, I hope your resident robins are okay
LesleyK, did you sneak in 50 plants without declaring? Or did I miss the post where you told us what sticky labels ended up back at your house? Last I remember was the anticipated trip to the GC. Since I'm now focused on learning to drive, I will need to get my plant fix from you lot
Been looking into tiredness issues this morning, some how the m word has been mentioned, might need to check my hormone levels
Winter I haven't sneaked any new plants in. We are having a retaining wall rebuilt at the back of the border and I have to move all the plants before the builders come and trample everything. I am trying to look at it as an opportunity to do lots of PPPs when replanting.
