I've just woken up after being up for an hour at 3am. What woke me up at 3am ? I've no idea.Blue skies here although it seems a bit breezy. It should dry the washing I put on in the middle of the night.
More hacking down and shredding to do today. That should let me have a borrowed view of the Rosa filipes seedlings I planted in the old orchard next door. Its now 40ft up a wild cherry tree. A third seedling which flowers a week later and has pink tinged buds and larger flowers is covering a hawthorn tree adjacent to the patio. Its looking to be full of bud, and should flower next week. It doesn't repeat flower, but I'm pretty sure it's the biggest rose in town.
Can't have coffee Dove alas Not really meant to have tea either. Hot Ribena all the way here like a proper growed up!
Another quiet day in the office so am quietly plotting away. This could go so badly wrong!!
Ooooh bu$$er!!! A dear friend swore by hot Vimto if she was under the weather - it would make a change I suppose
Re cake - I think Hortum -c may have looked at the first page of this thread - hope he/she hasn't ploughed through the thread from the beginning to here
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Dove - we've had a huge amount of fledgings recently - they seem to be completely ignorant of our coming and goings and they bounce around the pond practicing their crash landings.
They've already found my redcurrants which are just starting to ripen. luckily they have always left the blackcurrants alone in previous years and I manage to pick some raspberries before the birds.

I can't see cake? Verdun must have eaten it all.

Very hot out there today, have had to come in for a cool drink; too early for a beer I suppose.
Some cake would be very nice to have with my lunch.

That looks perfect.
have just watched a Goldcrest feeding 2 presumably just fledged chicks, on a branch of a Yew tree.

My garden's full of fledglngs at the moment - sometimes I hesitate to go out there for fear of disturbing them all - they're having such fun exploring

I've got a fledgling blackbird residing amongst the raspberry canes - I shall be moving him on if he's still there when they're fruiting
