    Good girl.

    I have an amazing low growing flowering chamomile ( not traditional lawn chamomile , with the most amazing smell of almost candied summer.

    I am almost in clined to use that instead of lawn chamomile. I 'm going to see how it copes this winter, if this winter is more testing, if it is and it copes, I'm doing it. :D

    Which bit am I being congratulated for? :D

    Let me know how the non-traditional chamomile fares.
    It might be easier/quicker to spend £5 on some shears and do it by hand.

    It might be, but I don't fancy crawling around the garden in front of the passing traffic/ pedestrians! It's bad enough gardening out there as it is!

    Yeah, one of the reasons I've not actually cut my grass is the man next door doing the building... when I go out for a cig it's up the side bit, not outside on my patio as he's "just there", up the ladder..... pressure to say "hello", or something.

    Get a goat?

    I noticed today that my house sold price has been updated on relevant websites.

    Heads up for a bit of a tear-jerker. Long Lost Families on ITV at 9pm.

    I come from a long line of illegitimate types that always kept the babies .... and have always been fascinated by adoptions - and how hard it is for people to find their original parents etc. It's so hard to find people even if you have a name.

    Love the way they find these people and bring them together.

    I've always quite liked the idea of having a pet tortoise.

    It's a bit of a long-term commitment though.

    If you look really carefully, you can see the seals!
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    OH is away again from tomorrow. He is so tired. HE is already in bed and asleep.

    A neighbour called in this evening to say travellers have set up in th woods. He was warning us so we can lock things away. I have not locked anything up yet. I hate doing such things, it is not how I want to behave.

    when this happens there is usually a spate of shed and tackroom break-ins. I think all local misfits take advantage of the situation. What I have been upset about in the past was when a jack russell puppy was stolen (it was retrieved from the travellers) and also a small flock of chooks which were not found.

    WE live adjacent to the woods and have a public footpath across our garden. I am more worried for our bunnies and chooks than for the garden machinery and bikes.

    Better lock my car tonight though and bolt the door.
