  • Morning all, Gary maybe your water bills went to pay for that lovely shiny new building they were working in. I have building envy now - I work in what is little more than a converted warehouse.

    Lovely and sunny here at the moment so I'm hoping to do some digging at the plot - have decided to dig it over and then put down lots of manure to break down over the winter. Trouble is I will have to carry the manure myself....

    I'm still waiting for my share of the new bread and cherry jam to arrive - hope its here soon as I didn't have breakfast.

    Chris, I like to have something to look forward to - am looking forward to a trip to Southampton!!

    Jean, lovely African violets - my mum always has some growing.

    Jean they are lovely.

    Chris I would always prefer to book a holiday in advance and have the pleasure of looking forward to it.

    Lottie maybe someone with a lovely building has a vacancy that would suit you image

    Morning lovelies!

    Sun is shining so might get my sweet peas sown later on when little miss has gone to nursery, and tidy up the garden a bit. Also got some tulip bulbs to plant, so will wash some pots out ready for them to go in. image

    Well -energy prices researched-my current supplier is a bit cheaper than this time last year but that is because prices went down then up again-switching will save me peanuts-so will probably stick with what I've got

    That's a gorgeous plant, for those who like big plants, and I do. Getting that plant into the car, and through the doorway, must have been interesting challenges.

    I tred overwintering a large banana in the living room one year. It seemed a good idea at the time, but it just took up too much room.

    No Geoff. She phoned this morning at 8am and said it wouldn't be here until 7pm tonight!! Contrary to what I said last night, this time I did make a fuss! A big fuss!! So now EDT is 3.30pm - 4pm. She is also adding another goodwill voucher to my account, and refunding yesterdays delivery charge. image

     My pic of the day, well yesterday actually. I have got several pots of pelargoniums still going strong, haven't the heart to cut them back and store yet.

    Geoff, it's early for us to be looking at holidays, we usually leave it until the New Year, but as others are joining us we want to make sure we get the property that suites us all.

    Jean -  your African Violets look superb. I used to grow quite a lot at one time, haven't had any for a few years now. Do you take cuttings?

    Geoff surely Southampton is full of sailors, that would be a great outfit.
