    £250 transferred to my Nationwide Regular Saver :j
    £300 transferred to Mr MWC's FD Regular Saver :j
    £1,325 MOP made :j

    Today's new plants (:o) were delivered from Crocus (mainly paid for with a birthday gift voucher) - peony 'Buckeye Belle', tufted hair grass (Deschampsia cespitosa 'Pixie Fountain'), ironweed (Vernonia crinita 'Mammuth') and a geum 'Lady Stratheden' to replace one that didn't make it through the winter. Very pleased to have got the Vernonia as I've wanted one since we visited Cambridge University Botanic Garden last year.

    8 eggs today :) they are good girls - well apart from the naughty chicken who dug up my plants and left a chicken-sized hole in the flower bed...

    HM chilli (from the freezer) & rice for dinner

    Almost certainly not Tilly, Miss LRH is a good girl :A Miss Beryl on the other hand has gone a bit feral since Natty has been neglecting her aunty duties... :rotfl:

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
