Loved Planet Earth, have seen Racer snakes, they are fascinating in that they have evolved slightly differently on each of the Galapagos Islands that they inhabit.
Don't watch Poldark, I just can't compete with all that manliness.

I have had what the French call a grasse matinée - stayed in bed snuggled under the duvet reading October and November issues of The Garden. We stayed in a garden cottage of that Arts and Crafts garden in Malvern. Stunning setting and a pleasing mix of managed, formal gardens and wild meadows and woods and streams. Those buttressed hedges are very impressive.
It has been cold overnight but is bright and sunny now with some light clouds to the east. Pottering sort of day with a trip to Luçon to stock up on basics and cooking gas then planting up the last of my pots, finding a place to plant a golden rain tree and one or two other bits to liberate more pots for bulbs I brought from the old garden.
I trust everyone is having a good day.

Hello and good night all. The dratted computer has been nagging me on and off all day to upgrade and even though I told it to wait until tonight, it still kept doing it. I think it's done now - ?I passed the I-pad to Hubby and left him to sort it out. Grrr!

I delivered to the most stunning old house yesterday. " Tudor at least but probably older. That wing at the front is new though. It's 16th Century"
Hi all.

Some good nights, some terrible. Slowly trying to reduce sleeping pills.

ditto with sleep, but I've not gone down the pills route.
Morning all, sun is shining.
Going back to France tomorrow. Just seen the weather forecast, cold, rain and wind from Wednesday.
We were going out for our last meal, but have lamb and veg over from yesterday so may go for a lunchtime drink instead.
I need more bubblewrap so am heading for The Range - can I get anything for anyone? Just pass your bank card my way .......
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
I have loads of bubblewrap Dove, with varying sizes of bubbles, but you're a bit far away from me.
