Morning everyone, lovely photos Pam and Gary. Not got much in my garden now except honeysuckle and nasturstiums which are still flowering and I've a few cylamen dotted around. Will be concentrating on all the houseplants now , getting them ready for winter. I like to clean the broad leaved ones and will be cutting a few back.
Hollie. so sorry about the cat . Can't think of anything else to suggest - I wish I could.
Still can't recognise the hawk I saw yesterday - It's now looking like it could have been a peregrine but it seemed to be bigger .
Thanks for all the get well wishes everyone - think I've got a noro-virus but a bit better today. May ring docs after - probally get an appointment for next January !
Came back from food fair with posh bread, several flavours of chocolate, Turkish Delight, various nuts, fudge and baklava. No cake as such. Ate wild boar in a baguette while I was there. Lovely day to be out.
Hollie, it's such a horrible situation for you with your cat. I'm pretty sure a rescue won't take her as they are all full up anyway and if she's not rehomeable they know they'd be stuck with her. And she may be unhappy penned up. I've been told that when a dog is neutered it can take a few months for the hormones to stop working and not to expect instant changes, I wonder if that might be the same with a cat. Maybe the vet could advise. If you end up having to make the decision to put her to sleep, try not to feel terrible, you have done more than many people would to help.Sometimes, for everyone's sake, it is the kindest outcome.
Love seeing the photos, thanks everyone. I had four bees on my Lemon Queen - the hoverflies must have spread the word - but they don't wait around for the camera. Wonderful dropletty spiders webs this morning.
Hollie there is a neurological disease that effects some dogs where they have a funny five minute-cocker rage is an example-if it gets too bad they have to be put down-I do feel you need to seek some professional advice for the cat
It is very dank and drizzly-have been on a bus again to go to the supermarket for a flu jab-that's Asda price.
I phoned the surgery to make an appointment for my flu jab - I had a text message the other day reminding me - was told I have to wait about 2 weeks as they have run out
Horrid murky day here - I have put the washing on,cleared out a cupboard in the kitchen -things were starting to fall out when I opened the door Just going to do a bit of ironing now
Was reminiscing about Wombles and spam fritters with one of my Sons at the weekend - now I fancy spam fritters for tea Haven't had spam for years
Oh dear, it has all kicked off next door, neighbour has complained about how long it is taking and builder threatened to quit. Have they never seen Grand Designs or any Sarah Beeny show, I have limited knowledge of building but when my neighbour said they would be finished in 2 weeks I thought it looked more like 4 weeks and the baby is due in 3 weeks.
That sounds as though the builder has given a price and it is costing more than estimate-don't know about the other shows but have seen rogue traders and cowboy builders

The site was running so slow last night I could not even get in to read comments
Very grey day here
Jean glad you are feeling a bit better.
Lovely photos.
XF- oh so staged
why are they obsessed with that song by Emeli Sande.
Jean, could the bird you saw been a Sparrowhawk? They are quite large.
Good morning fellow plebs and forkers,
Love the photos Pam, Gary and Chris. Does your tree turn yellow, Chris?
Hope your feeling better, Jean. Geoff should keep his germs to himself.
So sorry about your cat, Hollie. Could she have a bad tooth? I suppose the vet would have checked when she was spayed.
Morning all-lovely pictures as usual

Doesn't anybody want to know my fascinating fact?
