Yawn ... wakey, wakey ...

Good morning Woo and everyone,

I'm up early again this morning,can't see the point in lying in bed when it is a glorious day out there:D:snz:

Went over to the allotment yesterday morning with Mr Kandy and pulled up a load of fat hen weeds for my compost bin while Mr Kandy planted the leeks that I had sown some months back.It got really hot over there so didn't spend hours there like we usually do.

Had a look at our Victoria plum tree and it is laden with fruit this year and some of the branches are hanging quiet low to the groundOur Margery's Seedling hasn't got many on it this year so must be having a rest for once:hehe:


Came home with a carrier bag full of Broad Beans and I sat in the garden trying to pod them while Mr Kandy dug up the second of the lilac trees that was takig up too much room.It has given us more space now.This tree will go over to the allotment like the other one has done so at least they are not wasted:thmb: We had to keep going indoors to rest from the heat of the sun and eventually went back indoors at eight because I was being tickled to death by loads of greenfly that had hatched out :( and because Mr Kandy had finished his job:thmb: oh and I also watered the pots of plants that we seem to have everywhere:hehe:

Anyway,the sun is shining and this lunch time we are going for a wak round the village as it is our village gardens open day and there is twenty five gardens plus scarecrows to visit so we are going to be tired when we get back especially as it is goig to be another scorcher:p

Hope you all have a great day in everything you do:luv:

Rosa sorry to hear about the rain and fog.That must mean you are getting your car back today:D glad also that you enjoyed your afternoon out and your fish and chips,and I bet Rosa liked hers as well:hehe:

Had a very enjoyable although hot afternoon yesterday walking round the village visiting nearly 25 village gardens.{Two of them opened on Saturday only}We started at 12.30 and didn't get home until 5.30 and we were shattered by the time we had finished and you know how hot it was yesterday:D I think we must have walked miles and forgot how spread out the village is now:lollol:

Shiney,here are the Victoria plums that I was telling you about yesterday.I have already put them on here once though I must have clicked the wrong button because they vanished and because we were going out I logged out and didn't realise:dh:

Anyway,here are a couple of photo's of the plums,and I hope you all have a great day

Morning friends :luv:
Penny, a girl after my own heart when it comes to plants OH just looks at me in despair and asks "where is THAT going?" when I succumb. I just cannot leave a garden centre emptyhanded.

Shiney, don't work too hard today. Plums?? :hehe:

Rosa, you had a great time by the sounds of it.

Kandy did you do one of those open garden tours? I have seen those advertised but never been to one. OH would refuse!! I would adore seeing how other people have designed their gardens

Well we had a gorgeous day yesterday, went on a long boat trip on the broads, saw lots of nature close up and learned a lot about the city of Norwich too.
Then OH took me for a meal so a most enjoyable day out.

This afternoon is dentist again.

 

Thanks Jazmine.....looks like was share the same addiction huh :rotfl::thumb::thumb:

 

But what a lovely addiction :luv:
I think my love of my garden has grown over the years, maybe it's all the back breaking work that has gone into it. I will have to see if I can scan from when the builders left it and how it is now.

 

I would love to see some pictures:thumb:, and i am going to get some more good ones this week too, of my gardens and not just the veggies, but the perennial beds too.:gnthb:
