Hi yourself! :wave:

Nice to have you back even if I don't know what you're rambling on about to lir and CTC. :kisses: ( inappropriate smiley:rotfl:)

Alfie is back, and all is well with her and her family, two and four legged. She is cross with brtsh telecom for their delay.

None of those, not as exciting, but now I want lots of day trips and we just don't have the time .


I really need to collate the links to places or mentions you make to get round them all....if I DO get surgery there will be no gardening for a bit, so maybe I can have shopping day trips for things for hues and garden.

Hmm, could get expensive!

I don't remember it!

We're hoping to spend some money and buy a pretty big tree that DH wants. He's chatting to people about it this week Problem might be finding a tub big enough that we both like and can afford. ( has to be in a pot/ planter). It might sit in the plastic tub it comes in for a couple of years,

I've just bought some large black plastic pots to take our box trees, as they're growing out of their 10 litre pots and we can't afford about £45 each for fake lead planters.

Maybe one day.....:o
