Morning shedders. Bright and crispy here in Norn Iron. I'm off to my country garden the very minute I finish my cuppa for more clearing and shredding. The trailer's packed up and the dogs know there're moves afoot! Quick Ques in entirely the wrong place but can I dig up my "in flower" agapanthus" to take to my other garden or should I leave it until Spring? Please say now cos that would be easier.
DD. If you type in the botanical names in Google, would it give you the French common names? Without getting up to search through my books, if memory serves me correctly, spindle is Euonymus, dogwood is Cornus and I have no idea what Ironwood is, don't forget that common names are often regional, so vary from one place to another.
Pat, yes i got to see the queen. It was a lovely afternoon. So special to see the queen and a steam train on the waverly line. Fell ill a couple of days later. must have been all the excitement!!!!!
DD couldnt resist the challenge. Got out my 'Oxford BookOf Trees'. They say ironwood is Parrotia persica. I have a couple of them here, but didn't knopw the common name
You sound a bit more like yourself Pat - is it the possum socks?
Think that's the best idea to get the French translation DD. There's loads of dictionaries online so, from memory, I think you just type that in. Hopefully you'll get a reasonable amount of botanical entries
I've plenty of smiles today Verd after all those sponsorship offers for my walk Here - you can have some of mine
Must be your device though
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Pat thought you might like this. My town was yarn bombed. The lady in the picture is 104 and she helped to knit some of these creations. They all appeared over nite
No smiley probs here, Verdun. Sorry to hear you had the trauma of looking after your Mum until she died. I also had that experience, but the best thing was that we lots of chances to talk which we'd never had before. There were always too many kids and distractions to just sit and chat. Luckily,my Hubby was able to cope with the three kids while I was three hours away looking after her for the few months I had to be away. Hope your smileys come back soon.
Fairy, it could be the socks, but it seems so far that I come good about 4pm, which the Dr says is typical of the disorders she is testing for. She didn't say if there was a cure or treatment if she has the right diagnosis, at this stage I'd almost accept anything!
Bushman, I love those photos. I'm a knitter from way back (since my mother taught me at age 4) and still do heaps. Fancy the old dear being 104! Good on her.

Bushman - it's good to see the stereotype of Scots having a short life expectancy being put to bed
Did 'Liz' turn your head and make you giddy then? You old scoundrel
Morning Clari - you sneaked in while I was typing
Right - I'm off to work. Catch you all later. Have a great day everyone
