Not had time to read back yet but wanted to say hello. My friends have just left after 5 days and I helped last night (until 4am) with the local village choucroute evening so I am exhausted. Hopefully after a good nights sleep I will be back on form tomorrow and able to get organised for my trip to the UK and of course my visit with Hosta, obviously the most important thing on my schedule - he has promised Hot Cross Buns!!!
Have a good evening all, hope you are all well.

DD have a lovely trip and a visit to Hosta - he really is a lovely chap - one of the best - and his garden and the view from his windows ...... to die for
BL - have a good journey over here - if you fancy/have time for a trip to S'wold I may be spending quite a bit of time there and would possibly be up for a chat and a coffee/pint/lunch or whatever ...... but I'll quite understand if you've got other things planned

We've just had roast belly of pork with roasted apples and onions, new potatoes and curly kale. That's the last lot of cholesterol-laden food that will pass my lips until next weekend. After my last blood test we're going demi-veg during the week and only eating meat at the weekend. I'm a bit of an all or nothing girl and I think I can handle it this way best.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Dove, it would be nice to meet up, but I thought you had other things on your mind with Ma. If we met for lunch it would have to have a nice veggie menu then, but I may not join you! We like fish. Is that allowed? No batter! Have sent you an email.

Hello all,
Not had time to read back yet but wanted to say hello. My friends have just left after 5 days and I helped last night (until 4am) with the local village choucroute evening so I am exhausted. Hopefully after a good nights sleep I will be back on form tomorrow and able to get organised for my trip to the UK and of course my visit with Hosta, obviously the most important thing on my schedule - he has promised Hot Cross Buns!!!

I hope you have a lovely trip, DD. We are off to Norfolk tomorrow.

Evening all
Been lovely here all day, until about an hour ago. Then absolute down pours, thunder and lightning
Hi Solentwind, pleased to 'meet' you
Think i'll have to watch Monty again, didn't seem drunk to me
The Mad hatter women got on my nerves tho
Missing The Night Manager, hopefully something new on instead. Did think he dried off very quickly after going in the pool fully dressed lol.
Have a good evening, SYL
How is your mum Dove, sending best wishes x
Hi all thanks for all the hi's and hello's
Been a busy day I only moved on Friday so lots of unpacking but did have another look around the jungle (garden)
before the rain arrived today.
Tonight is my first night in my new home feels a bit strange and will be weird in the morning no city traffic and no work

Steak and kidney was fantastic, with a lovely bottle of Languedoc red.
Just watched the Night Manager replacement, seems like it might be quite good.
Hosta, I took some Penstemon cuttings today as well, from the trimmings as I was cutting them back.
Good journeys to the travellers.

We watched a programme about the Durrell family moving to Corfu, really enjoyed it.
