    Loving the gargoyle LLady!

    But love that last pic image

    I would love to look like Rachel de Thame...but sadly....I'd need to grow 6inches and have a body transplant image

    She doesn't have wings though........image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
  • Thanks Marion and Fairygirl.  There are some beautiful pics on here, such pretty gardens.

    Yes I too would love to look like Rachel de Thame. I was amazed to find out that she is 49, she looks at least 10 years younger.

    Some of you may know that on June 1st next year i will have been looking after my present garden for 50 years and plan a Golden Jubilee Garden.  I have been tryingout plantings for it this year and here is a close-up of rhododendron "Klondyke AK" and late golden dwarf tulips and Welsh poppies which i hopw will spread into my prairie planting.  I may help by scattering some seed in September.

    Thank you, Bev.  I am saving my garden vouchers i win for my gardening journalism ventures to buy lots of "Golden daffodils",  Did you see my letter and picture in June's "GW"mag. that earned me £25?  Those vouchers buy me lots of lovely compost as well.

    Haven't read much of the mag yet  Marion but I will make a point of doing so tonight! Worth doing the letters if you get a bit back isn't it! You'll get a fair few daffs with that image

    Are you sure she's 49??? Makes me feel even worse then.... image 

    And me only 27 as well image
