      Good Morning all,

      Good to have you home Shiney, take it easy on that garden, trying to catch up.
      Very overcast here and none too warm. Have a good day all,
      God bless.:wub2:

        Aloha everyone,

        We haven't yet had a chance to check out the garden but things in the greenhouse seemed OK. :blue thumb: So the person doing the watering doesn't appear to have missed anything. We took all the hanging baskets down to make things easier to water and so we now have to struggle to get them back up again. They're going to be very heavy! :phew:

        The plants in the new front bed have grown a lot and the thalictrum was only just over 4ft high when we left and is now over 7ft :hate-shocked:

        I've just downloaded our photos (over 500) and shall see how they came out. We met up with some friends whilst we were up there and one couple had rented a rather large cottage :heehee:
        P1220779.JPG

        They were having a lot of family coming to visit and it worked out much cheaper than going to a B&B :blue thumb:. The place had acres of lovely gardens and some spectacular views.
        P1220780.JPG

        P1220794.JPG

        The pictures look rather dull but we only got there in the evening for a, sort of, takeaway. The food (frozen meals) came from a supermarket in Keswick that is really good.

        Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

        Aloha!

            Good morning everyone,

            I hope everyone is ticking over nicely:dbgrtmb:

            Shiney...That looks like a beautiful place,the views really are stunning over that way aren't they:wub2:..Mr Loli and I are trying to decide where to go for a break,the Lakes,Peak district,Dales,North, South:rolleyespink::dunno: they're all such lovely places.

            Had a lovely time with Gt Aunt yesterday,98 years young and although frail as bright as a button:love30:...apart from the usual birthday goodies I took her a dish of Rose petals that I'd collected from the garden, as I was dead heading the scent was so strong,it was a shame to just toss them aside.Aunt has always loved Roses so she was more than happy to spend half the time sniffing them:biggrin:

            Nice chilled potter in the garden this morning is on the cards,the sky is looking a little ominous though:th scifD36:...

            Wishing everyone well,take it easy and take care:SUNsmile:

              Morning all:spinning:

              Back in the fold, not having a good time at the moment - just can't seem to get
              motivated, I do the jobs almost mechanically, but do not know where my head
              is at.:frown:

              I hope everyone has a good day, a bit overcast at the moment, but a nice sunny
              day is forecast.:blue thumb:

              :imphrt:

                  Good morning Lili and WOO and all who follow.

                  Lili, I am a bit like that myself this morning too. Must get Amber out for her walk in a minute.
                  Have a good day everyone, stay safe and well,
                  God bless. :wub2:

                    Aloha everyone,

                    I didn't get around to doing anything in the garden yesterday as I seem to have been busy doing nothing! :doh:



                    I may get a bit of mowing done today before going off to bridge.

                    I wish all of you that are not feeling so good a very comfortable, cheerful good day and those of you that aren't in that cat(:cat-kittyandsmiley:)egory to also have the good day :grphg:

                    Sarafi was a bit clingy yesterday and followed Mrs Shiney around - until I gave him some trimmings off the lamb! :heehee:

                    Hanging baskets are now back up, 62 bean plants have had their tops taken off by either pigeons or pheasants and six of our ten courgette plants have been totally eaten by slugs :mad:

                    Have a great day :biggrin:

                    Aloha!

                    P.S. if any of you thought the song came from Snow White (a lot of people do) it actually came from the above film. :blue thumb:

                          Good Morning my Forum Chums,

                          We had a lovely time in Edinburgh, here's a photo of a view from the top of the castle
                          image.jpg
                          Kev is still there working, I flew back Sunday evening, it was strange flying in my own, that was the first time in almost twenty years Id not flown with Kev. He's back on Thursday which I'm very much looking forward too.
                          The garden changed so much in only two days, there's quite a lot of weeding :whistle: to do!
                          I hope yo are all ok, @liliana & @moyra I hope you both feel better soon :grphg:.
                          I must dash, have a good day everyone :spinning:

                            Thank you Beckie, lovely view over Edinboro.

                            I have had a strange day not really with it at all, Amber doesn't seem to be with it either. We have ambled along the green but we haven't enjoyed our walks. We are both off to bed now anyway and hopefully his lordship is enjoying his fishing more. Have a good night all,
                            God Bless all, night night!:wub2:

                                Shiney...I love that song and often sing it under my breath at work when I see people standing around when they should be working:whistle::heehee:

                                Off to the grind this morning which I don't mind but it's so hot in there at this time of the year:phew: still I suppose we have to make the most of it,it's like having a work out before you start doing any work:rolleyespink:...

                                It's looking like it's going to be a nice sunny one so enjoy it everyone.
