    well done CTC... :T very satisfying when you sell isn't it :D


    well ive planted all but two rose bushes and I know ive got to do it but im sat with a cuppa...pooped !
    im pleased with that patch so far.. it was a swimmimg pool but long been filled in. still got the stone surround so im making it a "pleasure" garden with a seat and surrounded by allsorts of flowers and it will be great for the flutterbyes and bees etc. random planting that will hopefully just explode everywhere :D


    I keep getting asked to sell furniture off bay...:mad: and ive told one man 3 times !! he ups the offer each time ?


    right rose planting beckons... suns gone from the lawn area now and its bluddy chilly !

    Well, I found one of the 50 anemones I left on the non-mouse -proof bench in the polytunnel, all of which vanished ....

    It has popped-up in a corner, presumably where Mr or Ms Mouse hid it for later....:)

    beautiful day here too, but a slight chill when the wind blows..


    someone left half a tray of tomato seedlings on the step infront of the caravan up the ranch for us, think I know who it might be lol... so just been transplanting them...into modules to bring them on...


    I feel a new sense of energy for this year for the ranch ( if that makes sense...)


    slowly the things I have been daydreaming about for umpteen years, are slowly coming together, and I feel, like they are not hair brain ideas lol... slowly slowly is the best way...


    I am getting hubby to have a scout around the recycling sites when he is out and about, but where would be the best/cheapest place to buy 2 and 3 litre size plastic plant pots??


    The load ( and I mean load) that I managed to get a few years back, when I was taking cuttings/splitting plants etc and selling them, have more or less all gone now...


    I found for certain plants they are ideal, to plant up this year, forget about them until the following year and then sell lol...
