    Some begonias are tubers and some are like rhizomes - please don't ask me the difference!

    Kate, don't think so as it does English spellings. It was all set up when I got it from work. I think they're trying to cut down on our paper spend, so we all have them at meetings, so we don't need to print stuff. I have terrible problems with predicted text, hence hairy inkers!

    Cheats tea over had visitors. Out came quiche (M&S) salad my own plenty of tomato's from GH, some new potato's thrown in pan for fifteen minutes followed by, finely sliced apple food mixer, all ingredients chucked in blender, dish buttered apple and topping into dish and into oven with quiche, took a little longer to cook though. Devon cream custard out of a tin, visitors thought it wonderful, what on earth do they eat at home I ask? Not often I take short cuts but needs must.
    They are going the rounds before a holiday in Canada to see my granddaughter on her birthday, that saved me postage on her card. T'other lot off to America to see eldest Daughter on 25th anniversary, they asked me to go, it would not be the same without Joan, I need a bit more time.
    Penninepetal said we are getting together to form a Bastogne against bad grammar, I thought that was where some American General told the Germans to go collect nuts during the Bulge, that is the problem with living through historic or is that hysterical events you get them all mixed up as the grey hairs turn to white.
    Oh well soon be checking the lotto one never knows does one.

    Well I don't think it matters that much - we all love them and we all grow them !!  Glad I asked about keeping them for next year as I wouldn't have a clue - I just buy new ones every year . Just had tea and having little rest before I attack the cake     I was having a look at the cobaea today - it's really lush and healthy but still no flowers image Wonder who's going to be the first to have one ? Found the seed packet and it does say it flowers until October so here's hoping. I  Oh and my sweet peas have give up the ghost . Going to start them off in October this year , like you said Kate.image

    Jean I looked at my cobaea today and lush is not the word I would use, it seems to be struggling but it is the white one so may be the paler colour is okimage

    I had hash browns with a bacon salad.

    Glyn I get hash tag instead of the pound sign, I was wondering about the hairy inkersimage

    Mines gone ballistic Kate - it had grabbed my hanging baskets so had to untangle it . I've haven't grown the white one.

    Die Hard is on again .

    Jean, try Montalbano. oops, sorry already started.

    Frank, I didn't win, hope you had better luck!

    Glyn - I thought you were talking about cobaea ! Just realised what you meant ha-ha !And I still don't know what OH means - overhead or other half and what is BTW?

    Hollie - I've got no chance of watching Flo - hubby thinks I'm mental . We've got totally different tastes in music (apart from  Pink Floyd ) I've got Lungs somewhere on this laptop.

    Reading gardening books to give me inspiration for next year. Unfortunately there are no sections on rain forest plants .

    Jean do you want a rain forest or are you planning for another wet summer?

  • Jean GenieJean Genie Posts: 1,724

    No Kate - not planning to make one ! I hope next summer will be better but I think the seasons are changing  Just trying to think of something new to plant if next summer is anything like this. Rice maybe ? imageimageimage
