I thought I'd post this pic of my beautiful sweet Williams......but it seem to be sideways and all the water is spilling out I didn't grow them, they are Aldi ones, but I am growing them next year. They are lovely.
What fragrance of SSS does everyone use or does it not matter? I'm going to order some if I can find an Avon lady.
Sorry Dove, I forgot to say, that's awful about your son? I presume he has reported it to the police and bank?
I love SweetWilliams too, I will be sowing them in the next week or so. Can you believe I've just asked my sister to order me some SSS from her friend who is an Avon last and she already knew about using it and takes it on holiday....ermmmmm, why have you never told your big sis???
Gosh, I'm even more dim than I thought, just googled it and I thought it was the usual skin so soft that I used to use, I didn't realise it was actually called an insect repellant...duurhhhh
Verdun Fortunately son checks every day - it could have been awkward if he'd not spotted it immediately as he's travelling away from home on business and if they'd emptied his account ......
He's had so much go wrong just recently including two separate prangs to his car, both while parked in car parks so police don't want to know although he has witnesses - one was an uninsured driver but the police don't even want to know how the uninsured driver got to and from the car park???

OL the sweet williams are lovely. I clicked on the image and it stood up the right way I have just ordered SSS from my niece but it's for OH. It works for him but not for me.
Sorry for your son Dove - it's a nightmare sorting these things out.
I intend filling five containers at the front of the house today. I've been putting it off because don't feel like lugging the spent compost round to the back and refilling them. Don't mind the planting bit. Just being lazy
Will somebody ask me if I have done it this evening I need shaming into it
OL - he reported it to the bank who are dealing with it; they told him to go to his nearest police station and make a statement - he's a couple of hundred miles from home on business so he popped into the local cop shop this morning.
They weren't interested, they were actually quite rude and said that how did they know he'd not been in Cyprus? that's what you get when you go travelling abroad!!! (he hadn't) and that they ought to be able to charge for doing things like that!!!
Son politely pointed out that he already pays the police to do their job and took name, rank and number! A complaint will be made!!!

That's disgusting, it's our tax and council tax that pays towards the police service, what an absolute disgrace!! I hope he gets it sorted and they can check whether he has been abroad as they will be able to see if his passport has been used....muppets (obviously not all police.....just the one in question)
And there's me feeling sorry for myself over something stupid!!

((group hug)) for OL
Just heard from son - it seems that someone's been spending 100s of euros on his bank card - in Burger King, Nicosia, Cyprus
Apart from anything else, how can you spend that much in a Burger King???
