Yawn Yawn, Wakey WAKEY...!! 2015

Good morning everyone,

Hope everyone has had a comfy night

Get well wishes to Shineys computer

Come on sunshine....Where are yoooo? I'm getting greedy now,we've had a good dose of it the last few days so I suppose she needs a rest...not for long though

I really must crack on today instead of wandering around the garden daydreaming it's all well and good having all these visions of marvellous borders but if I don't sort the plants out there won't be any borders

Wishing everyone well,take it easy and take care

 

Good morning everyone, It's very overcast here today, the forecast is better for this afternoon, I have quite a lot of work to do this weekend but I hope to get into the garden at some point, even if I only get the grass cut , I'm going to seed a lawn this afternoon at one of our properties, let's hope it grows!
The seed swap parcel arrived here on Thursday, I was so excited last night I stayed up late sowing seeds! Hubby was surprised at the latest collection of seed trays on the worktop! I have some scabious & courgettes which need potting on so once they are done we shall have a worktop near the window again!
Today is Aldi day for me, I'm hoping there's some clematis left, we have a wire fence between us & our lovely neighbours I'm hoping to grow some clematis on the wire, I thought that would look nice, don't worry @LyndaG i shall be buying more than just clematis .
The hens are literally like spring chickens this morning Hilda & Nora are striding up & down the garden shouting, I've just given them some dried mealworms, they won't last long . Little B seems to be back to her normal self which is lovely to see, Marion is shouting, I think she's just laid an egg & wants me to know!
@Lolimac i hope you manage to get those boarders sorted out, I'm sure your girls will give you a hand!!!!
@Woo I hope you are feeling better today?
@shiney i hope your leg improves today, don't over do it my friend.
@moyra I hope your walk with Amber was nice & you are feeling better.
Have a great day everyone, I shall update you on my Aldi purchase later on I hope it's another good week this week!
Take care & happy gardening

 

Morning all

Lots of rain overnight for which the garden is thankful but starting to brighten up now

Good luck to Shiney's computer at the PC doctor's surgery

Hope there's lots of lovely plants at Aldi for you Beckie

Feel better soon wishes for Woo, Moyra and Shiney

Have a great day everyone

 

I got that too this morning Moyra. Seems perkier this afternoon though,

Jenny, not sure what that is about, whether our thread needs renewing, usually once a year is enough! Having said that have we had more members participating this year.

 

Good morning everyone,

Woo...Yet another beautiful picture every time I see them I think to myself,he'll never beat that one but you do

Hmmm the little tinkers have been eyeing up my parterre ...I have made a start on a small chicken wire fence around it while the hedging fills out and they can't squeeze through as easily but they were lined up contemplating going 'over the top'.They could easily get over it but haven't attempted it yet.I'm not worried about my Roses as they leave them alone but I doubt the Tulips would stand a chance .I'm sure they're plotting between themselves because they potter around no bother but then as soon as they see me they all toddle up to it ,march up and down and look at me as if to say "go on dare us"

Hope the weather holds up for us to get out there today the sun came out here yesterday but that breeze was bitterly cold again.

Have a great day everyone and take care

 

Good to see you back Shiney and pleased the leg is getting there

 

Morning early people

Suns shining but still windy here.

The Boy is coming over for a drink tonight

Got some sorting out to do, be moving next weekend.

Have a good day everyone and don't quit your day job

 

Good Morning everyone, Just walked Amber, not a bad morning out there, the sun is trying to shine.

Shiney, glad you got your computer back, sounds like you need an industrial one the amount of stuff you have on it. I regularly clear mine of a lot of stuff.

Loli, I wish I could keep chickens again as you do but not here I'm afraid my landlady wouldn't let me. She is none too happy about Amber these days. Although when I first moved here nearly 18 years ago she was quite happy! I would still love to move maybe Suffolk or North Essex way. Steve complains because all his work is within about 15 miles of here. I am sure he would build up a clientele further north if he wanted to. He might need to advertise at first which of course he never has done all his work has come by word of mouth of people pleased with his standard of work.

WOO, hope you are managing to keep well, and girls hope you all manage to get your plants in. All of you though do not overdo your backs. Steve resited a Tit nest box he made and it was never occupied but he has put it out the back garden where it is quieter and already there is interest. So hopefully, we shall have new neighbours soon, Thank the Lord that the landlady hasn't stopped us putting up bird nest boxes. My coconut one usually houses bees.
Have a good day all, don't overdo things, God bless.

 

Good morning everyone, lovely day here, the sun is shining & we have a blue sky with White clouds , I'm going to meet hubby at work shortly them it's an afternoon in the garden for me .
Yesterday I bought two clematis from Aldi, £4.99 each they are full of blooms, there were other plants but nothing which took my fancy, next week they are going to have passionflowers in, I've already decided where I'm going to put that! I spoke to my neighbour about putting the clematis along the fence, she's not exactly thrilled with the idea, they are Montana clematis & are very fast growers, she's worried it will grow to big & pull the fence down, I can see her point, now I'm not too sure weather to put it there or not? I could buy a oblesk & let it climb up that?
@Lolimac mmmmmm the tulips, I have a feeling you might have the same troubles I had scratch, scratch scratch look, oh a tasty small slug, scratch scratch scratch look, oh sorry mummy that's just wrecked your new tulips! These girls are troublesome sometimes! I've fenced off some of my flower beds with bailer wrap, they now walk around the fences do off area shouting
@moyra, don't take any notice of your landlady, she's lucky to have kept you as a tenant for 18 years, that's saved her a fortune in 'find a tenant fees' also if she agreed that you could have Amber there's nothing she can do about it! Lovely news about the new neighbours! I've got three nest boxes at the front of our house, I've never had any birds in them, they seem to like the conifer hedge & hubbys workshop better!
@shiney, sounds like you are making good progress in the garden, I'm looking forward to seeing the new flowerbed, I hope the plants do well , pleased to hear your leg is improving, please don't over do it, make sure you have those rests & plenty of cuppas!
Good morning @wiseowl I hope all is is well in the 'Woo nest'
Have a great day everyone, catch up later xx
