You may or may not get a thundery shower tomorrow -hit and miss is what they say -so it is a bit vague-sorry-have you a garden fete planned?-will there be toffee apples?
I was half way through planting up a container when it started to rain, so I need half an hour to finish it off. There are no toffee apples, I cannot afford a trip to the dentist.
Daughter has already crashed out & OH back at the little house.
Ok plants-1. a Rudbekia, not the one on my list, but another smallish one,
2. a small hardy geranium- from Trillium's nursery,
3. another white agapanthus, again not too tall, for a nice spare glazed pot,
4. a replacement hardy fuschia- Hawkeshead. I lost my previous one. The big pots I use for some fuschias I never lag over winter & of course daft me didnt take any cuttings of i!
5. a Heucherella, slightly trailing variety. Dont suceed wth Tiarellas, but do with heucheras, so why not?
Think I know where they will all go.....
Am shattered now, so will definitely sign off & shut down things. J.
Decided it was time to pick gooseberries - they're all gone despite my netting cage which has been on there since they were flowers Blueberries are still mostly green but I bet the little wotsits (whatever they are) have got their eye on them too.
It was sunny here but now a big black cloud is looming. It was freezing when I did my slug walk last night.
Flo that must be so heartbreaking.
Geoff you need a note book to write down your worries then you will sleep like a log, or you could just get up and do the ironing, always makes me sleepy.

Jo what plants did you buy?
Geoff is tomorrow dry, that is all I need to know?

You need a greenhouse to work in-if only those numbers would come up- they are going to make 100 millionaires next Friday on the National Lottery
I have 17 flower buds on my white agapanthus-is this a record?
Back again!

17 is a Southampton record
I have bought a lucky ticket and will be buying one of the 100 millionaire ones too, then the greenhouse will be mine.
Jo they sound lovely, I have been watching it on the TV it seems much more colourful than Chelsea. I now want more lilies.
Yay-record breaker
Up too early again-had another restless night
The sun is up too.

Flo-feel sorry for saying this have been picking blueberries for weeks-they are netted though-very tasty
Kate -thanks for that-the thought of the ironing should send me off
-how did they manage in the middle -ages without irons?
