Landgirl, Dove, Panda, Nutcutlet and Artjak you all look so warm and friendly, I want gardening friends! I think gardening is good for the personality, at least it is for me, I can be a bit of a grumpy control freak but spending time gardening mellows me and gives me patience.
Chicky .....Shakespeare would have had a hard time writing believable storylines these days ..... Innit !!
Lol innit tho!! (sorry I have teenage kids, that tickled me)
Ashleigh - if you're here then you've got gardening friends ((hugs))
I like Katherine Hodgkin, but like most Katherines (I have one) she is particularly idiosyncratic, only appearing at her best in very particular settings - try her in a stone trough with a light grey gravel dressing - she will look spectacular - that is one of my gardening ambitions.
She did not appear at her best at Anglesey yesterday
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Sorry I didn't post last night. I had a brilliant day with the other forumatti (another new word?). It was so interesting to find out what others have as a garden and what their gardening passions are.
I adored the dogwoods and they have some spectacular large trees there. Also a second hand bookshop
I avoided the cakes (can't eat wheat and they had no gluten free cakes - shame on them!)
That Katherine Hodgkin was a very strange plant; very discreet colouring (like something out of the Farrow and Ball paint catalogue) and yet en masse they had a curious luminous quality which was very attractive in a slightly spooky way.
I can assure you that the photo is completely wrong; we are all size 10

Hi all, such lovely pics, not sure if I like the iris either, Kefs right does look like a fish.
So glad the weather stayed dry for you and that you all had a lovely day. Look forward to more pics.
I look forward to more trips.

It's my new camera Artjak - it has a mind of its own and sees what it wants to

Pounds?...... Stones more like!
