    Yes, but good to have watered the young plants, you'd feel worse if they died. Roses can manage without being dead headed.

    Do you have a chair outside, could you maybe sit down and aim the hose spray? Just a thought? X

    Gardening should give you pleasure and not stress.  Like OL, I wish I lived closer and could pop in to do a bit of cosmetic improvement on your garden for you.  So if going outside stresses you out, you shouldn't do it - you can take it all in hand next year when you will be back to normal.  If you get some pleasure from pottering about though, then by all means go outside.  But make it easier on yourself.  Just do what you want to do and your body can cope with.  The moment it becomes a strain, STOP!!  Bossy Bee x

  • I know how you feel, Mike.....had a spot of bother myself last year and it pained me to see nature trying to reclaim my lovely garden. The experience however did cause me to think of such things as 'should I be growing fruit 'n veg on this scale'?

    I think next year there will be some downsizing.

    So sorry I didn't see this post before I just sent you a pm Mike.I'm really sorry you're feeling down but please don't stop posting.And no you're not hugging centre stage at all,to suggest you are would be to assume you asked for your current problems.Like pansyface has said,a few days from now things will look differently I'm sure.Take good care my friend and hang in there.
