Morning all, Just had a scary drive following hubbie's car to garage so he could take mine to work. His going in for some repair. The garage is at the end of a long .dark country lane but I don't like driving on it. Anyway, back now, tea needed and I have no car for the day so catch up on boring stuff and may do some more seeds. Dank and dismal here.
Hollie, If I were you I think I would ring for some advice over your cat - that doesn't seem right at all. Has she/he always been tetchy ? The cats' protection league can offer free advice or maybe have a chat with the vet. Ours went loopy a few years back and it turned out she had a bad tooth which was causing her pain. Hope she is calmer today, an angry cat is not a good thing,
Gary, I watched the fashion show on Downton last night.
Hollie, I've just been looking on the cats' protection league website and there is a telephone number and an e-mail if you need some advice. Maybe they can help you.
Oh no-it is October-hate October even the word October sounds harsh and unforgiving-do not like October
Hols-did watch Episodes as it happens-it was ok- but a actor playing himself- albeit an exaggerated version- takes a bit of getting used to-apparently there will be a third series
It is raining and the sad news is I haven't cured the drip-am stuck again as to where it is coming in-can't do anything until it dries up
Have managed to do quite a bit in the garden over the weekend, planting out bare rooted wallflowers, relocating forget me nots to surround them (I love that combination!) also moved some foxgloves the size of savoy cabbages into the recently rejuvenated shady shrub border, pleased to see the pulmonarias I divided a couple of weeks ago are putting out some new leaves. The Virginia creeper and grape vine are colouring up well, some teeny bunches of grapes which the blackbirds are guzzling. Today's plan is to start planting up pots and window boxes with spring flowering bulbs and violas... might even sow some sweet peas.
Plan is to wait for microwave on free cycle, and use that in the shed! Mind you, the sad little second hand shop over the road has one, maybe I'll check that out too. Am planning to reuse a lot of stored potting compost for the bulb planting marathon.

Gary I am stunned I went to bed last night and it was all over and now I find out they have won, the ghost of Seve helped them.
Dank is a good description here too. October arrives and it really feels autumnal.
Morning one and all.
I watched Downton last night, that's all. Great soap, cheerier and better dressed than any of the others. Aaaah :- )

Not going out
Figrat-have you stunk the place out with the microwave yet?
Geoff that is no good, maybe you shold have used more salt.
Have we had the nod for sweet peas?
Move way from the sweet-peas-guru says in a couple of weeks
