      Correct Verdun ;)….I know i'm limited with flowers because of how the gardens are done but I do enjoy my flowers and no way is the heat going to destroy them, especially with them being watered regular.

      We have a slight breeze and mean it's only slight Verdun but just that alone keeps the air feeling cool :thumbsup:

        I’ve left my neighbour in charge of watering the plants this week, she don't water them as much as me and I know some of them will be dead :cry3:

          image1.png Look who has cleared the food from the kitchen table whilst we were out! A baby still at 22 weeks but he has found a way to get up there. Gotta smile :)

          Picture taken from security camera via mobile so not the greatest quality but he was caught red handed:love30:

            Verdun bless him and have mercy on the poor chap [​IMG]….best laugh I've had all day :snorky:

            Can I suggest something please...removing the chairs away would help :whistle:

            That security camera Verdun is clear it's the colouring that needs toning.

                  I love them @Gail_68 they bring so much cheer to the garden. The bees are loving them too.

                  I can't wait to see what my teddy bear sunflowers look like, our first ones we sowed were destroyed by slugs but we sowed some more and have two in our angel memorial bed, they are nearly ready to flower now.

                    Sienna I always found them from a child long with big heads until Martin on the forum told me you can get a nice selection in smaller ones...I've always thought that size ;)

                    The slugs are a pain they recked a new plant of mine, it knocks your neck in sometimes trying your hardest to have it destroyed in front of your eyes.

                    I hope the ones in your memorial bed come out splendid and what a lovely addition to have there :thumbsup:

                        Gail, he is that colour. The table is white. The walls are white. And we know he does it now ....we move food away and he lies on the table. We know he's a cheeky, resourceful chappie and oblige him. It was funny when we first saw him though :)

                        No, no chocolate there Tetters. Mind you when we were kids my mum always kept loads of chocolate bars and we gave them to the dogs. Always healthy and lovely. We knew nowt, did we???:noidea:

                          Verdun I do apologise I didn't know your colour scheme of your kitchen and thought it wasn't exposing to much colour :sad:
                          So in other words Nicco as become the boss :snorky: and there's no moving him...I find him adorable and that puppy pic OMG is stunning :love30:
