Morning all. Having my cuppa before a wet trip over the hills.
Nola, Harrogate Show is lovely, I'm thinking about going to Malvern Show at the end of the month and doing a family visit at the same time. Saturday looks like it might be OK in that neck of the woods.
Have taken my 'nasty' tablet & can now eat breakfast- only after 1hr!!
Bit nippy out there this morning. Will wait a bit before putting washing out.
Harrogate Show- hmm, wonder if OH can be persuaded? His new camera would get a really good 'do'. Problem is daughter cant come re her work so grumpy ++ will result.
Glyn- Malvern Autum show is lovely. Not sure if am able to nip down this year. OH & me both grew up not far away. Am planning to go down that way anyway at the beginning of Oct to meet up with friend & visit the churchyard where my parents are. I shall swop the plants around- pansies or violas for the winter & a pelargonium for the summer. Dad started doing that after Mum died so shall continue........... J.
Sunny morning here but it did rain overnight so I may be able to do some more digging today.
Nola I normally do not buy my tulips until they are in the sale in January, I find if I buy them now my containers are still being used for summer bedding and if I buy them half price then I can buy twice as many.
Mine are on order Kate. They wont arrive until mid/late Oct, just as I am, getting busy with other things!! Like you, the pots I want to use are still well in use at the mo.
Blimey, just looked at clock. No sound from above yet- not sure what time she got back home, I just rolled over when I heard her set the alarm. Good, she needs more sleep then perhaps less grumpy? J.
Kate thanks for the reminder re:- 'My sister's keeper' For some reason I can't get film 4 now. Will ask my DIL to record for when I'm on baby sitting duty.
The garden seems to be having a last burst of colour but hpoefully it will last a few weeks yet. The dahlias and trailing begonias are still flowereing their socks off and the kaffir lilies (I don't think it's PC to call them that now but can't remember the other name) are just coming in to flower.
Geoff, how is Cody? Is he a sulker when you've been away or just overjoyed to see you?
Morning all-full of post-holiday depression-it is cold and autumnal and I don't like it-what a ray of sunshine I must seem-the grass has that soggy look
Still on washing machine duty
Cody keeps following us around Pam like as if we are off again soon -he will soon settle down
Flo-what is that you have ordered?-you might just as well go out for the day- you know they won't be there until 6 at the earliest

Jo it is not easy living with a shift worker
Have you ordered special tulips?
Morning all. Sunny and an autumnal chill at the mo. Lots of errands then have to wait in from 2pm to 9pm for a furniture delivery.
Feet! Oh, now I see, Geoff. And the white stuff is your magical aura I expect.

What is happening in talent show land?
Pottiepam I think it is schizostylis, mine are not flowering
Geoff XF has been a little predictable, some of the guest judges have been very irritating.
I had an attack of schizostylis
