    I am very privileged to be experiencing what I am, but I too am missing growing my own veg this year melly. I love the smell of tomato plants and eating green beans straight off the plant as I'm picking them for dinner :D

    Love the plants for people :)

    Moo - not odd at all, plants in our garden get named after film or book characters!


    hugs to all that need them

    I have tomatos and beans this year, but only because the plants were given to us. Some strawberries may survive from last year.
    I usually grow quite a bit so feeling really lazy.
    For some reason flowers do not do well in our garden at all so I am jealous of your dahlias!
    Beans only survive if I keep Little Sod away from them. He tends to nibble them straight from the plant when I'm not looking

    I woke about about 1.45 am and couldn't get back to sleep for a couple of hours, and even then it was a fitful sleep, not the bed, which is very comfy.
    I think it's probably the restarted meds.
    Should settle down again soon.

    And normally, I get lulled to sleep by the TV and/or surfing on here, but no TV in the bedroom and can't get a strong enough signal in the bedroom from the wifi hotspot. I actually got up about 2.30 and came into the living room to come on here in the hope that it would tire me!
    :D

    Anyway, I'll be home soon! :)

    Sorry guys still in bed :eek:

    I am doing what I would be doing if I was up. On the internet:rotfl:

    Off out this afternoon to spot the oddity in the windows of the local shops. Part of the local carnival celebrations.

    Ordered a load of make up as well. With the freebies and even postage works out at about a £1 a piece. So value for money.

    Yours
