Beautiful sunny day, not too hot, just a light breeze
, sat in the garden playing feather on a stick with Flatters, sun on screen so please excuse mistakes!
Got fine hair too Lesley! Had alopecia twice, very scared of hair cutting type folk! Now use Doves lady....gives us a nice excuse to do lunch every few months
Handing in notice felt amazing SGL! I'd love to Loan BusyL's horse too but not sure how my garden would cope! plus side would be the free regular delivery of FYM! I'm sure she will be very loved and looked after at her lodgings Lizzie
Got to pop in town for a swimsuit today, need one for work apparently!
Thanks for the congrats Hosta hope your not at the coal face today!
Fidget - hope Wonky doesn't mind me answering this one - she'll still be under the Mencap umbrella but with a different set up, as part of a two-person team providing personalised support and social/leisure opportunities for one individual with a very high level of need. Think she'll be brilliant at it
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Dove has it just right Fidget really looking forward to it, but until then three more weeks paid holiday and gardening to be done! All works out in the end!
Verdun, do you actually order these plants or have you bribed the postman to deliver any plants to yours? good plan if so!
Today I am wondering why my morning glory is not growing with the same pace as the bindweed in my garden It is tempting (but not that tempting) to put some bind weed there as well coz the white flowers are quite pretty guess I just want an Instant Garden
I quite like the bindweed flowers too Panda & have been known to let it grow in a corner tactfully known as the "natural corner" (nettles and thistles ARE good for flutterbys aren't they?) - aka the "messy bit behind the shed".
Sorry to hear about your horse BL. Sounds like she's going to a good home where she'll be well cared for but still very hard to say goodbye. Will you be able to visit? - hope so.
Congratulations Wonky - lovely to be able to look forward to going to work again and nice to have a good chunk of summer in the garden
Today we have been mostly trimming hedges - OH cuts, I supervise and clear up - seems to work quite well. Picked today because it's a lot cooler and overcast, but still got very hot and sticky and the hedges were full of bitey gnat things. Glad it's done for this year (just a quick trim to tidy in the autumn)
Have also been watering my parched beds in the hope that it DOES rain tonight - that way everything will have had a REALLY good soaking. Getting a bit dark now so fingers crossed.
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down

Afternoon
Thankfully not humid here today Verdun
Today I am wondering why my morning glory is not growing with the same pace as the bindweed in my garden
It is tempting (but not that tempting) to put some bind weed there as well coz the white flowers are quite pretty
guess I just want an Instant Garden

Don't be daft Panda
