Jinky - you should be packing, not hanging around looking for gossip And looking at the PC screen won't help your headache. Go and drink lots of water and keep away from the PC/TV for a couple of hours.

Greenbee - My DH works in Hook and/or Basingstoke at least once a week, so I know what a long drive it is. Serena and Dusty both know far more than me, and are closer surely? I do have some pretty garden design books that may be useful though? I have also just read the last thread and saw your comments there so apologies for telling you to do what you had already done re the clay . South facing sounds good though - masses of choice then. If you want some inspiration and you are ever near Rutland then I recommend Geoff Hamiltons old place - Barnsdale Gardens. We liked it so much we got married there.

I have now scrubbed the bathroom and put the mats in the WM, shined the kitchen sink and made a start on the list. I must hoover, but the urgency has gone as my sister has just cancelled. She flies tomorrow and is running out of time to do stuff. Good job really, what a way to start a once in a lifetime adventure - with my stinking cold.

You could always come down with your DH I'm surprised he has the energy for all your DIY if he's doing that journey regularly. I can see now why you say he's making sacrifices - even if he loved the job, that's a tough commute.

You shouldn't be reading through the old thread, you have stuff to do - like RESTING if you're feeling grotty! No need to apologise - I don't expect everyone to read every post I make (fascinating as they are ), and its nice to have confirmation that I'm doing roughly the right thing.

I know your sister is off travelling and has left you her books to feed and water, but do you have any more details to make us more jealous?

Jinky - pleased to see you've logged off!

OK... must stop messing about on here and do some preparation - I have a client call at 3.30 which I need to swot up for
