Yawn Yawn, wakey wakey !! 2015 mk 2

Morning all

Cloudy and blustery here, with rain to come. Think summer has taken a few days off here

Fabulous pics Loli, sounds like a wonderful place you're in

Hope everyone is well, have a great day

 

Morning early people

Good duck Loli

Same weather here Eve

Off to Thomas Hardy's gaff this morning, his take on summer was that it was more like Revelations

Have a good day everyone and always look both ways, even in a one way street

 

Good morning my friends
I'm a bit of a grumpy moo this morning.....basically I need to give myself a kick up the bottom & get a grip! I'm really disappointed with my back boarder, I don't have much on flower & it's just looking drab.....obviously need to buy more plants & stop moaning!
So on a positive note, we've had goldfinches on the bird feeders this morning, they were quite young, their feathers were still a bit fluffy!
@Lolimac I really enjoyed your photo....if you can't have hens to feed you may as well have ducks . I hope you enjoy your break
@shiney sounds like you have a busy day ahead of you, have fun.
@lost_in_france & @Zigs i can share my rain with you if you want, it's chucking it down here, prehaps if the sun comes out later it will speed up my next lot of flowers
Have a good day folks

 

Need the rain Beckie, barrels nearly empty again.

Love a good Glodfinch

 

I've just cheered myself up a bit! I've bought two Ebbs Tide Roses for my boarder....a girl must shop
@shiney your flowerbed looks great, thanks for the inspiration. . I think a bit more retail therapy of the plant kind & sometime spent in the garden & I will be fine , I won't be a grumpy moo for long something will make me laugh!

 

Morning! Wow...some of you here are VERY early risers!

Maybe I value my sleep more or need more. I find I can fit in all I need to do waking up around this time....possibly an indication of a less full-on gardener?

When I first came here, I mentioned buying plugs of tiny lupins and fuchsias that were in the hanging basket section of the garden centre. There was some debate about their size and it being a possible error...well, they have started to blossom and are indeed small. I will send a photo of them (in the appropriate section) when the weather is more favourable.

 

Best part of the day Rosebay IMHO...

Eve...it really is lovely,been umpteen times before but will never tire of it,a perfect place for dogs too...

@moyra ...I am in my element here,it doesn't take much does it...

@shiney ...I have found some chooks but Mr Rooster was strutting his stuff so they were a bit skittish...hoping tomorrow when I go into Chatsworth House proper the Duchess has her Buff Orpingtons wandering,fabulous fowl they are,you can even buy them if they have any available...

@Beckie76 ...Marvellous choice with the Ebb Tides

Have a great afternoon and evening folks,I'm off to watch the locals cricket match,it was lovely last night,Deer roaming,Cricket on the green and Chatsworth as the back drop,it doesn't get much better

 

Hi Everyone, Hope you have all had a lovely day, take care all, Goodnight, God bless.

 

Night, night Moyra, sleep well

 

Good morning Woo et al,

A lovely bright sunny morning here good day for a picnic and a stroll around the gardens...it'll give Archi and Theo a chance to dry out,they've never been out of the river since we got here....

Wishing everyone well,

Have a great day and take care

 

Morning all

Off to Reading later, hospital appt, maybe a bit of window shopping

Looks like it's going to a lovely day.
