The local garden centre is offering half price plants today! Where are you delivery man don't you realise I need to go and inspect the bargains?? Quality control of course I've no where to put any plants! (If anyone wants an aloe vera, sea holly, fargesia cabrida short arse bamboo, yellow iris thingies...!!)
Stevie: more work, no more money, not so much as a shiny sticker. But its all for a good cause and will look awesome on my CV as I polish my halo.
Sorry I've been absent for a while but who wants to listen to moans and groans. I was doing things I shouldn't with my 'back' and fell backwards and hit my head a right wallop. Maybe a bit more sense has been restored now. Thanks for wondering Fairy. I should have said something earlier but the screen was giving me headaches. Holiday is just over a week away.
I've got a heck of a lot of catching up to do now. Happy Birthday Joyce - that's what spurred me into action.
Topbird I can sympathise with the dry ground and lack of rain. I thought it would be great but maybe I'll just put up with the midges and not being able to get out to cut the grass (edit - OH to cut the grass). At least everything is very, very green here. Must have had more rain than you Fairy.
Afternoon all, Well the trees are all down. The men made a really good job of it and tidied up well. I've just finished doing a bit more tidying and mowed the lawn to get the last bits up. Absolutely shattered now. Iv'e just got to decide what to do with the extra space.
Have you any plans yet Stevie? How much extra light do you have now? Do remember to wear a t shirt if you go out in the mornings!
Delivery driver has delivered. I've just popped some pork shoulder in the oven for supper. I'm feeling really hungry despite breakfast and lunch so have decided we need a blow out proper roast with all the trimmings. Many many roast potatoes and yorkshire puds!
Oh dear, what's happened in France? We've come back from 5th Anniversary lunch in a pretty local town, jam packed with English and Dutch tourists. Good lunch. Off to Google to find out.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

Thanks T'bird. I'm being taken out for lunch tomorrow in my "me" time.

Have a good day
Afternoon all. I'm glad to see you back Lesley.
weve been watching a scandi drama - Spring Tide. Rather good.
((BIG HUGS)) for BL, DD and all our friends in France
Right now the phrase ' we're all in this together' really must mean something, whatever results from Brexit in the longer term.
Lesley ((hugs)) take care and try to follow orders (for a change)
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

Hi Yvie, have you taken any pics?
Oh BL - I hope you haven't seen the news. It's too depressing for words. I've had the radio on all day and it's bad enough hearing it on there.
Just hellish
Rain back on here - we've had quite a lot Lesley. I was hopeful it would be half decent while I was off. Oh well - I've got quite a bit done anyway.
I hope you're ok. You really shouldn't be swinging from the chandeliers at your age you know....

I'll have a catch up while I contemplate making some dinner. Really can't be bothered
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
