Morning all, my sympathies to you Bill, I cannot imagine what you are going through.
I am trying to stay calm folks, but i am being wound up by a certain someone, so I can only apologise in advance if I respond. One of my many faults is the need to respond to bullies.
Anyway, lovely and sunny here, done the supermarket, think I might go to a local reservoir for a walk and a bit of a bird watch.
See you later, hope all the workers have a tolerable day and hope the birthday girls are not suffering from yesterdays excesses.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team
No probs Doc - I know it's very tempting to scratch an itch - but with your medical knowledge you know that results in a nasty little boil so best to ignore it along with the rest
Have a lovely walk and birdwatch and report back on what you see - are you taking a camera and binoculars?
By the way, a friend in Cyprus saw the first swallow this morning - they're on their way back!!!!!!!!!! Makes your heart glad doesn't it
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Ah, swallows, truly magnificent birds. When you see them you know that summer is coming; and when they leave I feel a real sadness.
I saw some in the bush in South Africa in November, and it amazed me, that they had flown all the way from Britain. I had this strange thought that perhaps the birds I was seeing were the same ones from home.
Binoculars but no camera. I cant manage bird photographs.

It really poured last night, onto the already wet ground. Lawn is getting full of moss. But today there is a patch of blue in the sky between the clouds. My mum used to say if there's enough blue to make a pair of sailor's trousers then it will be OK!
Don't bother or even think about the bully, puncdoc. I don't click on ignore because I'm too curious, but usually I don't get too bothered.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
I'm bright and breezy this morning inspite of being a year older and I hope everyone else is feeling good too.
My intentions this morning is to cut down the cobaeas that have splawed over the border. I assumed they would be killed off in the winter but I suppose it hasn't been cold enough. Cutting them down might be the end of them but they only had a few flowers compared to the ammount of foliage so i won't be too upset.
The heavens have just opened and it was lovely and sunny earlier so I'll just have to have another cup of coffee before I venture out.
All you Famous forkers in GW mag again that's Tracey-Newbie's question - What tools are essential for a new gardener? so Chicky, BobTheGardener, KEF and Dovefromabove you made it to the mag well done
Dry but bit windy here, off later to the garden we are visiting
Hello all, Hi BizLiz, does anyone remember a winter when the moss grew faster or covered more of your lawns. There may be a world shortage of lawnsand this year. i think I may try to corner the market.
I thought it looked warm like yesterday, but the wind is arctic. I have sown seeds of broad bean(witkiem and perla),some more sweet peas I found (a free packet, I think... Miss Wilmott)and have started potting up seedlings of my touchwood aquilegias. I ordered far too many packets, I couldn't resist. Half sown late July,now being potted on, the other half will be sown this afternoon, for potting on later. I've come in for a warm, despite the greenhouse being a bit warmer than outside. I usually lose echinaceas, so I was please to see new shoots poking through. Now if I can keep the slugs off them......
