    Good luck.

    Hope it goes smoothly.

    Do you have an appointment to discuss results already arranged?

    Gunnera.

    I like them. The foliage. ( not so interested in the flowers personally). I've always liked them. They grow like weeds one of the countries I call home too. But I was never there to see them flower.....so. Maybe that's the connection? :)

    Funnily enough was just talking about this on another thread. We had them yesterday I noticed. Our bins aren't emptied for a week. :eek:

    Lucielle - All the best today for you all. Hope it's enlightening.


    Each year Mr Choille announces that we've got out Gonnerea back when it starts to grow again....the gunnera that is.

    A female blsckbird must have smacked into the caravan window. I picked it up & it was crawling with maggots - it's that time of year I suppose.

    Stonking heat here today.
