    Well done Gg.  Apart from the hard work you've got some great, healthy looking plants.  Surely that Dalek is inside-out.  How will the grass compost?image.  I thought Fairy was up a mountain somewhereimage.  Good spot thoughimage.

    Ggirl - when did you get that pic of my house....imageimage

    Came back early from walk - weather c***. The mountain will still be there next week. Got some nice pix on the way up the glen - liked this one best....

    A rare visit from me so hope you are all well image

    Went on an Open Farm Sunday (Google it) visit to Our Cow Molly Farm. Then a reasonable bike ride and back to the garden. image

    We've just eaten supper out on the terrace for the first time this year - the robin was tucking into his supper too. image  He only had mealworms, but we had Greek-style lamb steaks with ratatouille and tzatziki and a bottle of very good French rosé - now OH washed up while I recovered image  and now I can hear him winding the hose back up - I had the sprinkler on the runner beans for about half an hour earlier ...

    I am certainly shattered Jo image Had a fab day, weather has been amazing image We took in 13 of the 22 gardens image Bought a couple of plants image The gardens were raising money for a local hospice so we had to tuck into a burger, Pimms, cake and coffee/tea (not all at the same garden!) Well, it would have been rude not to image The gardens varied from ones that were massive to smaller, intimate ones. Pretty much forgot I was to take pics, so very sorry image My fave was one which had a lovely old house, half the garden was trad with lawns and beds, and the other half was proper woodland, with a campfire circle (fire pit) and an amazing tree fort, complete with zip line image it was right up my street image

    Sounds like everyone has had a busy day. 

    Not many roses out yet at David Austin, the best show was from rose Olivia Rose a real beauty with a georgeous scent.  My friend bought me a belated 40th Anniversary present, not a rose, but a clematis called Picardy.  It's a patio variety that only grows 3-4ft and is a beautiful ruby colour.   We have decided to go back in about a month when the display should be at it's best.

    Came back and drank wine in the garden, perfect end to a perfect day.

    Toad in the hole sounds good pr.cottage - I had a banana and a cup of tea for dinner. Don't think that's a Sunday roast in any culture....image

    I picked the wrong hill to go to today - should have gone east...image

    You had a long day Panda - but you obviously had a great time image

    Ooh Jo - a zip-line could take you right through the back bedroom window.  Yey, no keysimage.

    It was a bit blustery again Fairy.  Not a good time for heights.  Good luck for next week..
