    Glad you had a lovely evening with your family Jean image

    Jo - there is always so much going on in your house image

    Geoff - those pics image

    I had a phone call from Lily (7) and Tolly(5) at about 5pm last night - would we like to go and watch their fireworks - we only live just up the road so had an enjoyable hour with them image Lily gets quite tired due to her cerabral palsy as she uses a lot more energy just walking etc. and she had been promised a trip to the firework display in the village which wasn't due to start until about 7pm.She was very tired so Son and DIL decided it would be better to have a few in the garden so Lily could go to bed  at her normal time image

    Today I have my article to write for Garden News then I think it will be more knitting image

    Have a lovely day Everyone image

    ...Today I have my article to write for Garden News ...

    You'll have to tell us when it's published, and if possible get a scan of the article, and post the image here, or on one of your threads.


    Didn't wake till 7.30. Then fed the birds. It was still, quiet and damp outside.

    Enjoyed SCD. My goodness, samba is diffiult, lots of fast tricky steps. Many of the 'weaker' candiates have yet to face it.

    Didn't hear much noise from fireworks last night. Maybe I had telly on so loud that I couldn't hear what was happening outside.

    Morning all,  image Not much to report yesterday. Spent the afternoon bird watching . No sign of Mrs Sparrowhawk. I've decided she is female now due to size and colouring but we had a multitude of birds feeding yesterday. I bought them a treat - one of those big fat candles with insects and seeds in it , Bit pricey at £3 but had a £5 voucher from supermarket . Well worth it for the enjoyment factor . We had a good laugh watching a determined little coal tit sliding down it image - he just couldn't keep his footing.

    Glad you enjoyed your evening Pam. I agee with Georg- it would be nice to read it.

    Fence looks good Dean. Did you wear your onsies ? image

    That tart looked good as well Bjay any scandal on the wedding to report ?

    To everyone else have a good and enjoy yours Glyn - you deserve it image

     

  • Good morning all.

    Thanks Kate for putting me on the right track re photos. I wouldn't have known how to do it without your help, much appreciated.image I have now transferred them all back to my computer and this is the one I was looking for.

    Sissinghurst April 2012- fantastic garden.

    We had quite a lot of fireworks around us for about an hour, the cat was too frightened to move, just sat behind the settee, hope there aren't so many tonight.

    Hope the article goes well Pam. Do you write regularly for GN?

    Hopefully furniture will be back in living room today. Daughter and OH are coming to help move everything, then I am cooking evening meal for all.image

    PS. if you have a burnt saucepan put some bio washing power in it and hot water and leave overnight, the burnt stuff will come off a lot easier.

    Lovely Tarte Tatin yum.

    Have a good day folks.

  • Morning forkers, as you can tell my anticipated long lie in has been cancelled. Woke up and couldn't get back to sleep, so decided to get up and lounge around. Te sun is just emerging through the coulds so am hoping to get out into the garden for a while.



    I cut some sedum stems to put in a vase, they last for ages and are now rooting nicely, so will get a few extra plants into the bargain.



    Chris, those Tunis look fabulous. We always go to Harlow Carr where they have a great show. I don't usually put any in as the voracious slugs here usually destroy them as soon as they are up, but I think I might put some in the year. I loved visiting Keukenhof a couple of years ago to see the bulbs, definitely a worthwhile trip.



    Have a lovely day all.

    Those Tulips are gorgeous image

  • Hi Glyn.

    I am going to put my tulips in a big pot near the back door as I haven't really got room in the garden, and hopefully the slugs wont get themimage

    When we go down to the Fens, Boston/Spalding, we see tulips and lots of other bulbs in flower, worth a look if you're in that area in spring.

    Morning all.

    Organised (?!!) chaos here! All actually quiet at the mo.....

    Daughter painting. Big argument between her & OH as to the extent of surfaces actually needing doing. OH lost by 2:1!

    OH needs the desk in his study/workshop, so it's been reprieved. I've cleared it- dumped stuff from it on our bed. My back muscle keeps threatening to 'go' again, getting def twinges, so not sure about me being involved with the carrying it downstairs. Oh it's just come down, good job I removed the box crate form halfway- more long-term sorting required- Dad's photos.

    OH now having to sort the 'junk', sorry, 'very important must be kept at all costs' in workshop, so space will be created for the computer table. Involves moving filing cabinet to under a workbench etc etc, you get the idea!

    His TV going into our bedroom, from which the old tv, not now working methinks is going to the tip- no prizes for who will end up doing that after all!

    Have got my 2cnd coffee, vital, & am about to go sort out 'stuff' upstairs.

    The cushion covers still to be changed.......

    Oh there is a tv dumped on our bed......byee, J.

    Me again- I love T. Princess Irene too. Mine due to go into a large pot sometime soon.

    Daughter now wearing a headscarf, but has no idea where an old pair of spex are likely to be...... image think shall give up!

    Will catch up properly on posts later, J.
