Done my inspection with mug of tea in my hand. My peas are filling out and runners and climbing French beans are now starting to take off, courgettes doing well and hopefully a few days more sun and I'll have some outdoor cherry toms
OH seems to have got me to agree to a cycle ride today, as long as no road, just part of trans pennine trail which we will drive to. Then on to local village gala. Wish me luck!
happy summer solstice everyone, o.l have a wonderful day, garden girl get lavender and tea tree oil for topical use on bites, everyone have a lovely sunny day
Just been catching up with latest entries: am reminded of the days when the tooth fairy left sixpence under the pillow for children's teeth. Our son came home from infant school and said to his mum "I think it must have gone up mum 'cos Chris in my class got a pound for his tooth yesterday"
He called us yesterday from his home in Coventry to tell us he'd had to go to the dentist & have a molar extracted - wish I'd read this thread yesterday I could have pulled his leg a bit with a reminder (he's 44 now!)

Hi Lily

Hi Wintersong, you sneaked in when I wasn't looking
Look forward to raised bed photo
Morning all.
Cup of tea to drink and a look round before I can make any contribution! Garden all seems to be thriving and no major snail/slug damage.
You lot all seem to stay up very late. Is there an irony in the fact that my favourite Iris is called 'Night Owl'....

I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Morning all! Happy longest day of the year!
Happy lil sis wedding day OL, have a fab time.
