Hi All,
just dropping in for a quick one, sorry I've not posted recently had some really bad news a fortnight ago, and it made me a bit depressed but I'm feeling better now, so will be posting more.

Hey eco,

sorry to hear you've had bad news & been feeling down :grouphug: dont suffer in silence honey bunny; dont have to give details but just know that we're all here for you with virtual southern comfort & dodgy hugs a -plenty . You'll be pleased to hear I've returned to my allotment - you guilted me into it by saying about your gardening & gathered 4 leeks ( well, size wise they were more like spring onions :rolleyes: ) but as we all know; size doesnt matter

Hello everyone else, gotta fly

love to all
lula

thank you everyone,I have been reading the posts and keeping up, just didn't post myself, my best friend from school died I just keep thinking we only left 2 mins ago how did that happen.

Sarah and Lula i admire you a detox, i couldn't manage it, and I've been planning my garden and going to run out of space, but my next door neighbour say's I can use a bit of hers if I need to.

Oh !!!!!! eco, that's tragic so sorry to hear that

Good for you with garden, I always feel cheered up when up to my knees in mud & manure

take care hon xx

Thanks Lula, sometimes I need to get used to things before I talk about them, I just didn't think it would hit me this hard, but like you say it helps to get out and do a bit of physical work in the garden, so I'll be out Saturday sorting my flower beds, if only I'd wrote down what bulbs i'd planted and where, but I suppose it will be a surprise when they flower.

I completely understand needing time to get your head round that, it's very personal & this is a public place so dont feel you have to divulge everything ( like i do sometimes & really shouldnt ) just want you to know that if you need to chat/offload then you can pm me. Losing someone can often reopen wounds of previous losses.

Hmm, I know just what you mean about bulbs, mine like to sneak upon me to the extent I'm convinced someone moves them around when I'm not looking :rolleyes: . You could always plant something in memory of your friend, I have a lilac tree in mine that my mum gave me & it was comforting last year to see it starting to bud again after the winter. She loved sunflowers so i'm going to try to get some of those growing this year ; bluddy great big ones

That sucks eco, have some big, manly hugs from me... *hugs*

Random planting schemes are the best, some people spend weeks worrying about where to plant everything to give the best effect/look nicest etc blah blah blah yet the traditional "cottage garden" which IMO looks the best is almost completely random.

Thanks Lula I felt better today at work, feel I'm getting my head round this one now, I have my mums raspberry canes in my garden, there the easiest fruit to grow, which is probably why she had them, I like to grow those smaller sunflowers, I forget the name but you see some in a dark red colour, and have row of them till my sis starts knicking them cos she reckons they will look good in her house, and every year I say I'm going to split the clumps of bulbs and never do, then wonder every spring why I didn't this year I will, but my winter garlic, shallots and onions are coming along nicely.

Thanks TDQ, the lads at work have kept me going with there usual smut and inuendo but at least there funny with it, my planting scheme's are random, if I have a plant and a space in it goes.
