Mornin all!

Lovely morning here too.
I put a vase of sweet peas in the bedroom last night and woke up to their wonderful scent!

Does anyone else put flowers in their bedroom...no one else I know does!

[Bren In Pots]

Morning the suns shinning and the chard I planted yesterday hasn't been eaten overnight

[Tripmeup]

Morning all...Rainy here, but working so not too bothered - personally speaking

My Mum always did! When I used to go to stay, she'd always put a tiny vase with a few flowers from the garden in my room. She died in 2006 but it's one of my really strong memories of her.

Lavender was always something my Mum had in the bedroom either fresh or dried.....funny how smells instantly transport your thoughts to things past.

I'm not very good with fresh flowers - forget to top up the water and next thing the floor is scattered with withered petals.
Always pick bunches of lavender though, tie it in bunches and hang them from the window latches.............don't ask me why

They really do, don't they, especially if you smell things with your eyes closed.

The smell of nail varnish always reminds me of being in Spain when I was 13, and buying some super cheapo bright red stuff from a supermarket to paint my fingernails!

Yes i do, if I have spare, love it, also have some in kitchen.

[Bren In Pots]

I put flowers in the living-room but that's about it.

Hey BIP, I'll wave tomorrow as I head past the church spire, fix that for bb then head home, all being well, will have a short visit (2hrs) in Buxton then on road. By 10am yay! Then oh joy flat pack tomorrow afternoon

[Hazel at the Hill]

Evening all!

Good job I'd decided that the Hill look after itself without me cycling up there to oversee matters - it's belting it down now. Plants will love it (as will the slugs, no doubt!).

Gives me chance to catch up here at home. So I'm just about to make Nigel Slater's marmalade cake, then I'll update the blog, I think.

Eeeeeeevenin' Peeps. Been working at new customer's garden, then spent most of my pay at the adjacent plant nursery as you do!

You lot OK?

I'll be wearing my pot so you'll easy recognise me

Evening All

Almost home, about 90 mins to go....absolutely starving but not going to succumb to one of those nasty train sandwiches.

Got a nice broccoli quiche and new pots calling my name.....and as I never went near the bar in the hotel I might have to pop a cork as well

[Glutton4...]

Well we've been sitting outside under the brolly; himself with a Tinny and me with a G&T. going in now, as the Mozzies are going 'wheeeeeeeee!' around my head, and driving me daft (er than usual, I know! )
