    Is that the domestic abuse story Dove? It made the national news - a good thing for this issue to be highlighted, debated and discussed. I have personal experience.

    Watching the Monty Don prog - did anyone else find the scatty girl a wee bit annoying or is it just me? image

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



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

    the word on FB was that someone was a wee bit, erm, p*ssed.

    Haven't watched it yet.

    Evening all!

    Yes, Fairy, the scatty girl on Monty's programme irritated me too...  image  ...and definitely not my style of garden!  Not too keen on the other one either, tbh - or am I just jealous that they had so much money to spend?  image  But I'm full of admiration for Monty himself.  So encouraging and polite.  image

    I won't be able to listen to the Archers omnibus this week.  Must find the podcast...  that story is almost too upsetting to listen to, day after day.  Dreadful for you to have personal experience, Fairy.  Not surprised you're enjoying being single...  image

    Lovely to read about all the seedlings you've got growing!  Spring is only just starting here, but the garden's looking promising now I've finished spreading compost.  image

    Nearly time for Gardeners World!  image

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
  • Grrrrrrrrrr! No Gardeners World next week then? Some things never change!image

    Not watched IT yet. I have however seen twitter full of #shoutyhalfhour which always amuses me.



    Sweet dreams all!
  • Sorry it's so late had a very long day in the garden but got lots done chilly but sunny all day.

    Just done the last tour of the day and we have baby's four new Echium Pininana seedlings, possibly a few Euphorbia Amiljassa but need to check for sure in the morning, but no sight of the Melianthus Major planted at the same time but early days for these, they can take ages to come up image

    Night all sleep well.

    If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.

    Haha Hosta, I watched Monty tonight...I thought...hang on a min....Monty's sozzled! I laughed out loud! 

    Fairy, I found her really annoying also! Tried to warm to her but she just undid it all by saying something daft again! image 

    Yvie, I'm growing snapdragons too but mine were just mixed 29p from lidl so bit of a hit and hope, but they are coming along image also got geranium painters pallet, rudbeckia, penstemon Cambridge mix, gaillardia Arizona red and lots of annuals, my first year of growing from seed properly, did a bit last year but jumping in with both feet this year, really got the bug! image bit of a tip, poundland doing copper tape, two meters for guess how much? image just been out on late night slug patrol and all is well image

    Dove I'll give you a call over the weekend for a catch up image stressful day very well handled by me I thought...didn't hit or shout at anyone! Someone must have given me decaf image

    Tomorrow is the start of a 3 day weekend for me, may it be glorious huh Panda image enjoy your week off! Night all image
