Thank you to you all for your lovely words and comments When something as lovely as this is the end result for a bit effort it's a great feeling! I like this friendly forum and will post more photos if I have more success!
Welcome new gardener! what a joy to have those pretty little flowers smiling up at you when before was only green and brown! I'm a newbie myself so still learning, enjoy finding your green fingers!
I inherited some in my new garden. Didn't know what they were at first but they've popped up everywhere and I love 'em. Gave some to a neighbour. You can see pinky looking ones in this picture.
Love them and they do their own thing in my garden but yes they are prone to mildew mine got it on sandy soil in a sunny open position so couldn't understand why. I have several in flower in pots too. They arrive there with no help from me whatsoever and are always welcome !

I love forget me nots too
Have cheated and imported some from the APs garden and planted them in dots around the garden so they will self seed 
Susan, some of mine go over to pink
They def started off as blue, and have both colours on the same plant 
From what I can tell, after a wee bit of research, some times the petals are pink
looks class gonna grow them myself
