    I'm afraid of vampires, too many Hammer house of horror films as a kid. Wore a cross and chain until I was 18. Then got more worried about being out at night when Yorkshire Ripper was about image No suitable smiley for those days.!!

    Hope all enjoy their evening.

    My DD was in a tall clematis pot and a bit pot bound, and I planted it in a 15" pot from summer till autumn when I planted it into the raised bed. It's roots completely filled the pot when I took it out. 

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



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

    Evening all.

    Dinner eaten, not bad, but as usual I added too many ingredients, trying to be too cheffy.

    Slugs and snails are really bad this year, I have to admit that I resorted to a few pellets yesterday, to supplement the beer traps. I may resort to nematodes again.

    I am afraid of snakes, which is why it took me 20 years to go on safari last year, even though it was something I had always wanted to do.

    Enjoy your evenings.

    Now everyone has finished eating, I can tell you the story of my mums cat, Tiger.

     They  live in a bungalow and he used to bring in presents through the open bedroom window. He would then drop live (mouse) present on the bed , and wow to be fed(chopped up liver) in the middle of the night. My dad wouldn't get out of bed, so my mum had to resort to catching the mice in a fishing net and then release them outside the house. It got a bit beyond a joke when he bought in a baby rabbit... and the mouse that got in the back of the piano was a bit of a pain too.

    I've been watching 13 men on an island. 1st thing they see is a boa constrictor. as they watched this fine piece of protein slither off, all they could think about was how much sleep they would get. I was thinking, chop its head off and roast it.

    How do you like your snakes, Dove?
