Gardening in the rain!

I should not be compaining really, everything is growing like ............weeds!
Google Bog snorkelling!

 

You need a sense of humour when things are stacked against you and gardeners have to be optimists. Hope you get it all sorted out for saturday and have a great day.

 

Wishing Mrs Pal all the best for Saturday.

We gardeners could start a new trend, do gardening in bikinis or swim trunks!
Get a rust burn instead of all the pain of sunburn
Or we could multy task and take the shampoo and shower gel!

Should change the title to gardening after the gales. We had one last night which completely destroyed the Marquee put up for the party. Too late now to go and get another and erect it. So pray for nice weather!

 

We will, the forcast looks OK. Have a lovely day anyway, I am sure the guests will appreciate all your hard work, and Im sure Mrs Pal does already

 

Much calmer today Pal hope all goes well for you. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MRS PAL.

Happy Birthday Mrs Pal 07.07.07.Hope everything goes ok for the party.The sun is shining at the moment down here so you may be lucky for a beautiful day

 

Thanks folks. Sun is shining at present and the signs look promising.
Must say the garden looks quite nice as well.

 

I especially like the last cartoon, in which the question is posed "At what point does it [the rain] stop being 'good for the garden'?" :D :D

This is something that has been worrying me more than somewhat over the past few days....because I have a container garden on a terrace, and if the containers get waterlogged the roots could rot...

 

:D :D

 

That one appealed to me for the same reason Leonora

 

Thanks again everyone. The party was very successful and the weather very kind. Everyone was stunned by the garden which is gratifying. Today we were exhausted. I have no voice left afer doing the full tour 5 times with various groups and I walked for miles. Well worth it though!

 

I am thrilled to hear it all went well pal, hope you have had a well earned rest today

Glad it went so well - and not surprised you ended touring groups round your lovely garden.

Congratulations - and enjoy the rest after your exertions.

 

So glad to hear it went off well Palustris - makes all the effort worth it.
