Sasha I have been in house and gaden for 2 1/2 years. Fortunate to eventually have a blank canvas. I target a samll amount each year. Last year I was not able to do as much as I thought - ongoing foot problems. I have a rough plan and an idea of colour schems and then look for plants I like within that papln and scheme. Now I found in autumn that one bed had no autumn colour to speak of so I think I will give Bishop dahlia's a go. But some, especially the Fairy Dell is still a blnk canvas. colour scheme pastel, scented. That's it so far
Back from vet. She may need to go on medication for rest of her life. As she is only 5 it could be a long time. Vet said talk to insurance company first before I commit to anything. Any one had any dealings with pet insurance companies???
Nothing exciting to report from me either. A couple of new big plastic boxes in readiness for packing up decorations but that's about it!
I hope your house selling goes smoothly Geoff. If you have no particular ties here, well, why not? Go for it and enjoy the adventure! (and the weather, of course!)
Oh Rosa....wish I could advise but have never owned a pet.
I had a half-wild half-Persian cat as a child but in those days you didn't go to vets and anyway someone stole her which was tough to deal with at age of 10.
Chorus....we want to see your farmous, Liz or something similar perhaps to be on the safe side
Afternoon all, or is it evening, I see it is dark out. I have been tied to my marking all day. It takes me ages, just thought I had finished one lot and found some more. I shall keep going, but thought I would have a peep in.
What a varied conversation tarot, sunflowers, kevins (I have worked it out, had a conversation with OH about his friend Kevin who we never see!), Spain, Italy and France and sunflower wine.
Girasole/Sasha, I was thinking about changing my name to Spring Cabbage, just doesn't have the same ring to it.
Hello, Rose
Be back later, OH making sausage and mash for tea.
That's not your house Geoff, that's your front garden! But it's really pretty.
Why is everyone taking down their Chrissie Decorations so soon? I leave it till 12th night and the French often leave theirs till well into February.
I'll arrange something on photobucket and send a house photo, but I hope I'm not the only one. I used to do B & B for a bit after my husband died when the last child left home so it was on a website once. Now I have 6 grandchildren and my children wanted to visit in summer so it wasn't very convenient. I really wanted visitors in winter!
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

Welcome to Rambling Rose and well done, Girasole!
Sunny and just above freezing here this morning. Must go out and check if any tips are being bared.
My niece gave me a green man for Xmas-but he is not green. He is marshalled with the others on the deck awaiting deployment in the garden.
