    Morning all!

    I follow complete strangers on instragram; last night one shared the harvest from his allotment. I was so jealous! I'm still half looking at trying to get an allotment until the garage is built and I can start on my vegetable garden :( Maybe I could adopt my neighbours neglected garden it would be ideal. I'm sure they'd not notice.

    Waiting to see if his lordship is well enough to go to work so I can plan my day.

    If the neighbours have an abandoned neglected garden, that is a brilliant idea. Maybe offer to sort it and share produce by way of rent? Or it might just shame them to do something with it. It could be handier than travelling to an allotment. Even if you only grow potatoes and runner beans the first year, something simple to whet the appetite.

    Morning all. I haven't read back yet so will catch up later. Been to dr for echo cardio gram. No results given by the technician but will no doubt get a call if they want a follow up.

    Morning all.

    Been home 2 days, nothing but rain. Was away 2 weeks, never saw a cloud.

    But at least the garden  hasn't dried up while you've been away.

    If you find a lion in the undergrowth, send it round to the neighbours.image

    Morning all/afties Pat. Hope all is ok for you  image

    Ahh - the glorious British summer doc....image

    BL - it's the start of the summer holiday season, of course they're on strike....image

    Hope you enjoy the rest of your little,  enforced, extended break though. Every cloud eh ?  image image

    Tennis is really good already. Is it wrong that I'm hoping it rains for two weeks now so that I don't feel guilty sitting on my chuff watching it every evening?  image

    Off for a quick look round before I head out. I'll avoid the 'contentious' thread as my blood pressure will be high enough when I've been  at work for half an hour...

    Catch you all later image

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



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

    Hi Fidget. HRH seems to sleep round the clock lately.  She is not coughing as much as she was and maybe the antibiotics are helping. The Vet explained it can be either viral or bacterial so even though she is immunized for kennel cough, her bad old teeth and gums will be full of bacteria, so she is fighting that all the time. I think her heart is not up to anaesthetic and teeth removal, so I'll just have to keep doing my best to keep her comfortable and well loved.

    there is a show on TV at the moment looking at the Cairngorms. Rather nice. - I think it's called A Year in the life. 

    Punkdoc, you must still be feeling very pumped up after such an exciting holiday.
