    Now please bear with me on this one everybody. Although I am computer literate, quite frankly I am very illiterate, if that is the correct term, about uploading picys... Doh!!

    If this pic loads its the bluebell meadow from Coton Manor, Northamptonshire, back in early May of this year. Quite superb, really - I mean the place, not necessarily the pic.

    Hi Royster

    Well done you [​IMG] - got your photos on - said it was easy. They are wonderful. Memories of Devon holidays. Even "Moody You". I'd say more pensive - although you look slightly as if someone has just completely hacked you off. :mad:

    Those Bluebells though - aren't they something? I've been begging the odd bulb from people here who have them in their gardens and planting them in my wild bit. I'm hoping eventually to have at least ..... er, um, maybe, perhaps six or seven!! Long way to go to get to Coton Manor's standard. Lucky old you to have them just on your doorstep.

    I'm stuck in at the mo and can't go out to play so need some cheerful pictures to make me smile.

    Make me smile, Royster........... [​IMG]

    Hi BlackThorn, many thanks for your email! Not too shabby that pic is it? I understand, having spoken to quite a few folks when at Coton Manor, that these bluebell meadows are dying away. However, according to the lady of the house, this year has been the best year for the meadow since she has been living there - I guess that must be a good 25 years! Something must be going right then. The wisteria there is the best and biggest I have ever seen but unfortunately its really difficult to get a good photo of it.
    Kind regards BlackThorn.
    Roy

    Hi BananaMan, nice to "speak" with you again! I have yet to have a look at your recent garden pics but I promise as soon as I have a moment I shall be very much enjoying and learning from your incredible planting scheme!
    All the best to you, Sir!

    Sorry Kryssy, I don't know why I replied to you with your own "reply", if you get my meaning? I'm sometimes lacking a bit of brain power, after all.
    Anyhow, I would be happy to send you some bluebell bulbs as I am fortunate enough to be able to work in some gardens where there is an abundance. Let me know please...
    Oh, and thanks alot for your instructions on uploading pics! Worked pretty much a treat, so it did!
    I think you are quite right Kryssy - looks like I am proper hacked off in that pic! Miserable old gett to be sure!
    Okay, I promise to post more pics to try and keep you happy. After all, you really do make me laugh!!
    Kind regards Kryssy!

    Fantastic, Royster, you got there ... absolutely beautiful (I'm echoing my Sis, how strange!). Thank you for sharing that.

    Royster, you are a sweetie. I'd love some bluebell bulbs but don't you go fecking (old Irish term). You can pay the postage though as I've seen the UK charges these days!!! [​IMG]

    If there is something you want in return just ask away - although if you think you will be getting a case of Cheval Blanc then dream on buster. :(

    I'll PM my address. Don't worry about the "c/o" - the warders are usually good about passing on packages.

    Oh, yes, a P.S. - Нет, я не говорю русского

    Voila !
