    Sue H said, '...and also to get out there and enjoy it!'

    This is very good advice for myself and a lot of the gardeners that I know; we spend so much time fretting about what needs doing, then doing it, that we never seem to just stroll around enjoying the thing that we have created.

  • I have a book that i always write what seeds i sow, when i sow them and when they hopefully germinate. It all starts off well so will try and do better this year. I also made a note of when i see the 1st frogspawn, last year it was on valentines day.

    Have just booked a coach trip to see the donkeys at Sidmouth, something to look forward too. I usually go to Chelsea but they have put the tickets up so much this year so will see the donkeys instead.

    Im much happier now all down to your kind words. Thankyouimage

     

  • I ;love Chelsea but the price has gone up so much so have decided i can probably get 2 days out for the price of 1. Its always busy whatever day you go and the food and drink is expensive. Last year a small bottle of water cost £2 we always took water with us but it is heavy and you can only carry so much. Enjoy your day Verdun im going to see the donkeys at Sidmouth instead.

    Verdun, I recomend you take a shoppers trolley or similar to Chelsea. Also take lunch and a thermos. The food and drink is really expensive as Maud says, but even if you can afford it, it is very poor quality. I once had a Pimms there, it was coloured water with bits floating in it.image Not at all how friends make it!image

    You'll have to speak to my agent first!image

  • Hi Maud.

    Just been reading you posting about going to see the donkeys at Sidmouth.

    We went a couple of years ago when we were holidaying in that area.  I was really surprised and impressed by the whole thing, it's much bigger than I imagined. Hope you enjoy your trip, well worth a visitimage

     Never been to Chelsea, the expense and travel costs put me off, so I watch it on TV instead.image

    Gone off the topic, but my New Years Resolution, is to sit and enjoy my garden more, not keep bobbing up and down when I'm having a coffee or tea, just enjoy. Don't think I'll manage it though.
