Hi all Pdoc, been crying and singing to prince ever since I heard! Glad your sticking around! I try not to get involved in arguments, but read and observe, have to say that I prefer gardening and friendly chatter,
Had a brief text from Dove, apparently she has teenage niece on spontaneous visit not sure how much of my jumper is going to get knitted! but thank you all for thinking of her, she is so precious to me!
Tomorrow I will confess to you all what I bought from the lovely garden centre....when its light enough to read the labels
Goodnight you lovely people ....I'm going back to listen to more Prince x
Morning allgd afternoon Pat. Enjoying early morning cuppa along with the dawn chorus. Analgesics gave a 6 hour sleep more than I usually have at one time. Waiting to know what you've bought WW.
Enjoy your walk Fairy. Hope the weather allows others to garden.
Good. morning Joyce. I've had a very productive day today. Lovely and sunny And about 20c I think. I've cleaned up a lot of strawberry plants for winter. Got rid of all the old unsightly leaves. The plants look so much better. I've also been picking parsley and putting it in the drying machine. Son took a large jar of parsley and chives home yesterday, he finds it really handy when cooking his meals. Have a god day everyone,
Morning all/afties Pat. I read your post and saw it as 'putting it in my washing machine'. Must be my overactive brain making the connection between washing and drying!
Hard frost here but the sun's out and I'm off on my travels in a few minutes
Glad you're here doc. Think the Thin White Duke and the Purple Prince might be getting up to all sorts out there in the ether. Maybe a version of Lilac Wine....White and Purple - do you see what I did there?
I'll get me coat ....and ruckie and I'll catch you all later....
Have a brilliant day everyone
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Sorry for going AWOL yesterday - bit of a family crisis over in Lincs yesterday so I shot over there to rescue OH's niece (almost 14 ) and she'll stay with us for 'a few days' ................ Meanwhile Ma continues slipping down that slope - I saw her GP yesterday who says 'not long, but who knows how long' so will just keep going over to see her as often as I can ...
OH is being wonderful, as are my son and of course, the Wonderful Wonky ((hugs)). So glad we had that lovely day together on Thursday - set me up for the next few days
I may not be around quite so much for a few days but don't worry ...
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Dove (hugs). You've got a lot on your plate at the moment.
Enjoy your walk Fairy. It's cold but a beautiful bright morning.
Sorry to hear about your wrist Joyce. How frustrating (let alone painful) for you. I'm struggling with my back at the moment and it's so annoying to see everything that needs doing on a nice sunny day and know that you can't.
Lovely pic from yesterday Pat. Did the skinks turn up to amuse your sons cats?
Dd your garden has come on in leaps and bounds - great job. Lizzie I can understand why panic is setting in about your open day but I'm sure your visitors will be impressed. Accept every offer of help you get. Nice one DD.

Verdun, sweet dreams. Not up yet, and don't feel like it.
Ps, thanks Wonky for putting us out of our misery. We're all worrying about Dove and her Mum. I hope you enjoy thevPrince music, he was amazing!
Morning all
