    So sorry for late reply everyone, it's been a long day starting with planned morning electric power cut whilst the electricity board did work! Followed by visit to mum who's not been well then time I catch up with BB the day has gone! Lovely to hear from you rosemummy and look forward to sharing ideas and pics etc yes def love all the designers you mentioned and also have the wish to learn to sew but so far all I've managed is to borrow my sisters sewing machine lol and that's as far as I've got! I'm full of ideas, just ask my long suffering BF! Ie wanted a great British bake off style kitchen which bless him he made for me on the promise I would bake and cook but I just like looking at it and adding more "tut" as he calls it image 

    Thought bekkie Hughes veg garden looks wonderful image

    Orchid lady my hair also was very very shabby chic today, what with no electric hence no curling tongs! image

    Your dogs are so cute and please remind me when we are on line together again to ask you about tips on how you manage to. keep your garden so lovely with two pups!

    Beau is my first dog ever to own and he is a little monkey in the garden! Good job I love him!

    Sweet dreams all, must log off now x

    Morning image I thought Beau was your son LOL! Never thought about a dog image

    Your veg patch looks great Bekkie, far better than mine at the moment.  OH is out at a crisis meeting for football tonight so I am going to tackle it then when hopefully it will be cool enough image

    Thanks OL, relised id taken it from the wrong angle and missed the flowers! I was more concerned about not showing the shabbier bits! Got lots more veggies, but they look even more scruffy so not showing!image



    I love your veggie patch, looks like a mag set! image

    image Orchid lady that made me laugh.  Beau is English bull dog and completely spoilt and treated like a son and acts like one too image My fault as never owned a dog before or had children so now we have him and boy don't we know it!

    It is really hot and sunny here today so well sensible to leave the veg patch work till tonight. I'm in two minds what jobs to do out there today image Having a nice cuppa while. I decide image

    Bekkie you are too modest as I thought your pic looked like a Mag set image Pls share the  other pics with us too image
