Evening all. Been busy inside and out - horrific rain with thunder this afternoon and on/off this morning too. Been painting ceilings when it was too wet to carry on outside.
I think you should go for a different look altogether Verd. How about a giant gnome?...
I will go and catch up with all the posts before I fall asleep as I've been awake since 6
Did I miss that nice cake too?...
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Verdun, I think a nice big miscanthus varigatus would compliment your border delightfully - I can split mine if you wish. Fairy, I think verdun's style would be more a lady holding an urn than a gnome but can just see both side by side
Am i too late for cake? Comfort eating as a result of the footie.
Loved Corfu Stacey - have a fab time. We swam in crystal clear coves, ate loads, and saw dolphins. Also went riding - prob at the same place as OL. Saw tortoises basking on the paths in the sun.
Lots of plants potted on, raspberry canes planted, sunny, but wind still wild. Not looking forward to next week - Chicklet has 2 exams every day til week on Weds ....and we feel her pain
The pressure has been up and down all day meaning I've been migraining all day too. Nothing seems to cut through a pressure headache now I can't have rum and coke!
I do love a good thunderstorm but really must insist either it comes or goes. Not keep nipping back like its not convinced it locked the door!
lot of rain here . last night . but great afternoon in the garden lots done . and we had some sunshine . still got lots of plants and veg to go in but getting there . late brunch . and pork roast latter . night all
Chicky, I feel Chicklet's pain and yours, my big boy has GCSE's in science starting on Tuesday, it has been a stressful fe weeks trying to 'encourage' him to revise Good luck to Chicklet.
Not done anything in the garden today, didn't feel 100% and needed a lazy (ish) day

Mrs Garden - field mice are vegetarians - they definitely won't want to nibble you
Verdun, it has to be the salvia
Clari - hope your headache is better now
Chicklet should have cake - I'm sure it's good for exams
Fg - saved you a piece - you can have it when you wake up
KEF
and ((hugs)) for anyone I've missed out
Hope Mike's not feeling too anxious and is able to get a decent night's sleep....
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
