    Morning all.

    Grey and misty here.

    Hope all the sad are feeling a bit better.

    Glad you had a good nights sleep Hosta.

    Greenhouse today, potting on some autumn sown seeds, and sowing some more. Window sills are going to be full soon, OH not happy, but as I tell her, it keeps me out of trouble.

    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

  • Salutations fellow green fingered lovelies...... I know it's been an age but I thought I would pop by and say hi!!!!! Last year was manic.... The chillies have taken off with a bang!!! I am now producing jams and sauces all from home grown produce and selling still online and soon at 2 shops! Needless to say this years grow is already well under way using lights and hydro!!! External garden is trashed I'm embarrassed to say however the front garden has now been turned into a mini allotment with step I've apples framing it!!! We have just cut down 3 large llalandaii in the back and I am waiting on fence panels to go up then I intend to create a lush border ( still with wild swan!!) and grow cordon fruit ( bought 8 trees at aldi!!) I am also redoing the school garden and when I have 5 mins am doing my RHS 2 correspondence course....... I hope you are all well I never forget you all

    Hi Stacey good to hear from you, glad the business is doing well, sounds like you have been very busy.

    It's a bit grey here at the moment but the wind has dropped and the rains stopped so that's a good sign.  Have some new plants I need to pot on and their is so much to do in the garden.  Want to prune the roses and the lawn needs another cut and scarifying reads for the spring feed.

    Secondborn has now only 7 weeks to go before 'bump' makes an appearance, no sign of them moving into new house as so much work still to be done.  I keep having dreams that she has the baby on the living room rugimage

    imageYvie.  It would make an interesting claim on the insuranceimage.  It will never happen. (Fingers crossed behind my back).  At least your other daughter has stepped up to the plate and will take them in.  This time next year .........image

    Good to hear how you are getting on Staceyimage.  What a busy life you've got now, and what fun.

    Hosta there'll be no stopping you today after all that sleepimage.  Good question from fidget about the hostas thoughimage.

    No worries about tissues in laundry (well it does happen) it's the £5 notes stuffed in the bottom of 1st son's pocketsimage.  OK I'm a money laundererimage

    Lovely to hear of your success Stacey - even if you're knackered with it  image

    Hope you're keeping well too x

    Positively boiling here - it was 7 degrees in the sun when I came down the road. Seven!  image image 

    Is the thought of flogging your hostas a step too far now Hosta? A little online business perhaps?....image

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



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
