    Morning Verdun and Doveimage.  It's a shame the tree's going Dove but you will have fun planning the new bed.  Sounds as though you've already startedimage.

    Hi Verdun and Lesley. I must say that I'm relieved to get some posts from you both. I was thinking I'd done something to upset management.

    i didn't think about it being dark, only the clock. I'm with you Verdun about not wanting to cut the solanum back until the flowers are finished, they look so nice with their white flowers against the green leaves.  Lesley, our ants aren't as vicious as those army ants. They are what we call meat ants, and they don't tend to bother us usually,  but they get aggressive if you disturb them, which I did, of course by pulling at the roots of the weeds.   The whole garden area is a mess because I've been out of action for so long, and it's beginning to bother me.  I must admit I had a good laugh at Hostas helicopter story. Great fun.image

    Evening Pat, morning Verdun & anyone else yet to come.

    First bucket of tea consumed but I'm not enjoying the start of the darker mornings - makes me want to go into hibernation mode.

    Not too sure what the day will bring - maybe some allium bulbs to plant, insurance to sort out, h/wrk to be done - what an exciting life!

    Hope you enjoy your second day at work Panda.

    Thanks for that Lesley... image

    Morning all and hiya Pat  image Thought that was a typo and your hubby said you were past it ....image image

    I think Hosta's having us on - I think he was kipping out there to protect his hostas image

    It'll look strange for a while having that gap Dove. I've removed a lot of lower branches on the big conifer at the back and I notice how odd it looks just now!

    Another chilly night here last night. It'll be a good day but I have to work. We need a 'big sigh' smiley. It only just got into double figures yesterday, despite the sun, but it was lovely and the changing colours of the foliage is a delight as always. Verd - you need to move up here to get that cold weather and colour. I'll lend you a jumper or two .....image

    Off for a quick look round to see what I've missed. 

    Have a lovely day everyone and sleep well tonight Pat image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Hi Topbird and Fairygirl. Yes it's getting on for 6pm now, so dinner won't be long.

     Yes that was a typo, Fairyg. (He's not that brave!) image
