    Morning all.

    I rang DD a couple of days ago, Lily P. She has a friend from England staying with her.

    OH has booked another flight, less convenient though, on Saturday as it seems a lot of flights in the SW are affected by the strike. We won't know from RyanAir until this evening for tomorrow's flight.

    Has been raining here too but at the moment it's not raining.

    SGL, Know what you mean about this weather. We had about 2 - 3 weeks of dry weather when we got chucked out of The Gambia and it's rained almost every day since,at least for part of the day.

    Even by Devon standards it's now " wet " 

    No chance of the camellias going in the ground any time soon.

    Hair cut, phone retrieved and have a friend coming round for a cuppa shortly, so picked up some hot cross buns ( sorry DD, I'll try not to burn them image) Apple and cinnamon / cherry and almond. yummity yum yum.

    Devon.

    Had to give in and see doc this morning. Face so sore

    sinusitis, tracheaitis and bronchitis. No wonder i have felt grim!

    think I feel grimmer now I know! Does that make sense?

    glad to hear DD ok

    I can't decide whether to use my three hours "me" time (starts in an hour) for a good run at the garden or go to the SM for a few things.  As it's dry and sunny 'tho' cold, I think the garden may win.

    Hosta, the Costa Clyde has been doing not too badly weather wise.image

    I will never look at gold hot pants in the same way. I feel a bit icky now.

    Just made my first trip to GC this year, very restrained I know. I only went to buy some twine, but they had lots of perennials in 2l. pots at £4 each, it would have been rude not to.

    Joyce i vote combine both and go to a garden centre that has coffee and cake image

    Lily stay indoors now and keep your face warm and concentrate on getting better x

    feel bit icky punk but least i brought your blood pressure down and I'm not even a medic image

    first trip to GC are you feeling ok?!!! That's well good value though on two litre pots.  Don't keep us in suspenders what did you get?
