      The most sorry for itself tomato plant from T & M which I named Lazarus (definitely more in hope than expectation) is trying to live up to his name. The first pic is of his sad appearance when I unpacked him (dead to all intent and purpose) and the second is after a couple of weeks of love and hope. I don't ever expect him to do anything amazing but at least he has survived.

        Not just happy, ecstatic. Back from the dentist and no need to return...all fixed.

        And when your back stops aching,
        And your hands begin to harden.
        You will find yourself a partner,
        In the glory of the garden.

              My vegetable patch.

              Not as productive as some, but a source of joy for me (and Mr Snoop some of the time).

                Rain!…I know I’ll regret saying that come winter, but it’s a total relief after trying to cope with 42C outside,

                  My sister. After over four months in hospital, she is home.
                  My other sister flew in from London to be there for her.
                  A very happy and thankful family.

                            On my way to Morrisons, which is a long way away, to get some flower buckets, I had to pop into my local little Co-op to use the Post Office, walking past the flower display and noticing empty flower buckets, I asked a member of staff if I could purchase some and told her how Morrisons sell them about 10 for £1. The person on the other end of her earpiece, said sorry but they have to be sent back for recycling
                            As I was walking out the member staff called me and said that another person, I assume a manager, was listening into the conversation and said it was fine for me to have them at 10p each! So I came away with 22 new buckets for my toms etc
                            As I walked out of the store hugging my big stack of buckets, I was beaming like a Cheshire cat, so much in fact that a lady said, "someone's happy today"
                            It's the little things in life that make me happy and only fellow gardeners would understand

                              What happened to Lazarus? Did he make it?
                              I need to know!
