    Dresses her dog. Asked for  a sewing machine for Christmas to make it clothes. No on all sorts of levels we are destined to just be polite when we meet. But they have asked me to make cake

    Will keep you all updated on what could be a long saga image

    Morning Frozen Forking Folk. Nice to see you drop by Fairygirl image Hope snow removing was quick and not too shivery.

    Quick query Gary - when you want to paste from two or three posts at once, do you have to do each copy/paste operation separately or can you do three copy ops before you start pasting? I know I could experiment but easier to ask a man who knows image

    Morning all. My hundreds of plug plants have arrived! Shall spend the morning in the GH pottingimageimageimage 

    You'll all find me very annoying now as here there is a beautiful blue sky and the sun is shining, it's 5° already. But throat is still a bit sore and nose is a bit bunged up.

    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    Morning everyone image Typed a post in earlier and windows decided to update and I lost the lot. image

    Not much to report here except more of the white stuff. We keep getting snow flurries so am hoping we don't get another dumping.

    You are going to be busy Liz image Can you please send a little weather our way ?

    Going to make a cuppa - woke up a bit grumpy so am laying off the coffee - feel a great urge to be outside doing something but I can't so I'm going to do housework. image

    Catch you all later. image

    Re multiple quotes. You just quote as many as you like, taking care that you quote them in the sequence that you want them. Then paste the whole lot with one paste.

    We mentioned Alex Polizzi's program about revamping a garden centre, which was on telly last week. There's been some follow up in the horticutural press.

    "Many of the UK's garden centres could be in serious trouble this time next year if they don't raise their game... Many are already on their knees from our last drenched summer and our failing economy, and they will not survive another summer, where the economy at the very least will be miserable... And with big stores like Waitrose just announcing plans to take a big bite out of the sector, this is no time for complacency"

    The article recommends similar fixes to those that were described in that program - all about improving layout, services and standards (don't need to know anything about growing plants! image)

    They'll have poor trade this Easter too.

    Morning Lovelies!

    I've been lost in bonnett land since yesterday. image Only Jess would decide she wanted a birds nest made with real twigs. Nearly finished but it looks like it has been run over! With one of Bjays mutant chicks on the top. image

    Morning all, feeling a bit sad today, noticed last night that I have lost the diamond out of my engagement ring, two of the clamps holding it had broken off!image Will spend the day with a torch searching for it, will be like searching for a needle in haystack. I'm hoping it willbe in the bag of compost I was grubbing around in to pot up my plugs. That will teach me for not taking my ring off when doing jobs like that!

    Enjoy your day folks, hope it warms up a bit, take care the poorly ones.

    My OH works in a Farm Shop which is on the same site as a garden centre, and has to be open when the GC is open, so he's working Good Friday, and Easter Monday as well as his usual days image 

    Just to cheer us all up, have you seen the UK forecast for April?
