    You couldn't do more than are Melly, as you say it proves that you have tried to ease the situation. How is OH today? Hopefully better than yesterday?

    We definitely can have a manatee, Flybaby! When I was working in Florida I went out on a boat it the Keyes and saw manatee swimming around. They are gorgeous and very protected there thankfully. Well done on the doctors appointment! It usually takes a few tries to get the medication right, you are totally right to ask for a review if you feel you need one.

    Awww, adorable! Funnily enough, I have the spent day reading about and looking at pictures of a very odd creature, a nautilus. When we were on holiday they had them at the sea life centre and WaSp couldn't pull me away from them, I was fascinated by how they moved and they are so pretty! I watched one move for 20 minutes and could have stayed there all day. They haven't evolved for millions of years which makes them even more fascinating! I want one as a pet, WaSp says no *grumble*

    I never knew there name but have seen them in pictures and on the telly.

    Have to have a massive tank to have one.

    Flybaby do you fancy coming and staying with me for a week or two. To help me out in the garden. Not sure if is just me. Even when in the mood my progress is sooooooo slow. And it looks like I have done nothing.

    Think I might have killed a couple of plants I bought in the land of pound. Think I over watered so taken them out of there pots and just left them on the surface of the raised bed. So hope they dry put.

    Sorry guys spent some more money today. On some aldi face creams and serums and a bit of food and some bulbs. I know I don't even have the border ready LOL!!! But I have to december to plant them. They might have to go in pots this year and transplant them next year.

    Flybaby going to get myself one of these on thursday

    So I can keep my cherry tree sorted out. And my husbands trees. And that is way cheaper than one visit from the a tree surgeon. As last time someone charged him £100 + to lop off his trees. How much should I charge him :rotfl:I do have long loppers but have problems with the strength part as I want to lop off big branches. And pulling done means I loose strength.

    So if come back on thursday or friday and say I am missing a limb its my own fault LOL!!!!

    Just watered and re-potted the other land of pound plants. before they die off :rotfl: I got loads of pots full of plants but no where to actually plant them. Cost me an arm and a leg in compost LOL!!!

  • Nautilus are amazing to see in real life, Calley. They move water through a tube to turn around and propel themselves, I am completely smitten!

    I am so jealous of your garden Calley, I would love one. WaSp went out today for cactus compost because the baby cacti are taking over here. My Java trees are also too big to share one giant pot now so need 3 separate pots. The Bromelaid babies continue to grow at unbelievable speeds! I really do love having plants, I am just running out of room!

    They sound amazing. I think once the kiddles are back to school I need to go to a aquarium and take a look. been a long time since I have been to one.

    You can have mine if you like. Everyone can come and give an couple of hrs help and I will supply the drinks and jaffa cakes.

    And then when it is all done. Everyone can come round for a big party!!!!

    I only use to have cactus and succulents as they don't need watering very often. But I also managed to keep a cyclamen alive for 5 yrs. it was given as a thank you present to my husband. And if you read up on them they are suppose to be really difficult to keep a live. I did the opposite of what you should do but it stayed alive. Once husband left I bought one for myself. And that has been going for a good couple of years.

    Sorry to be all me me me
    Email sent over about bungalow also advised the customer service director that as I'm struggling with my health I will meet with him after my consultants appointment.

    He emails to say he's worried that the complaint will go over the prescribed in their policy time limit so wants to put it on hold.

    Erm

    Firstly I don't care if it screws your stats
    Secondly it relates to communication all of which they have so why do we need to meet with me again.
    Thirdly I am Mrs not Miss Mellymoo have signed off Mrs he's still Callong me miss so kinda feeling that if he can't get my name right there isn't much hope he will actually look at the complaint properly.

    Don't worry about it being Me Me Me. I am having ones of thoses days to today. No idea why.

    But please take care. I hope you have managed to eat/drink today.

    Yours

    Calley - oh that looks super cool - I don't have one of those and want one now!!! I normally just climb the trees and hack the branches off but that would be so much easier - we have 60-80ft trees behind our house that are left to rack and ruin. They are lovely but do block ALL the light from the garden, but I only ever cut off the overhanging branches. lol - I would more than happily come round and help in the garden, but don't let me near the green stuff - plants don't like me! I build and lift and shift - Plants are too messy for me and I like order. My mum has a small garden but it is the most fantastic English country garden and she is an amazing gardener. She "paints a picture" from where she looks out of windows or sits in the garden so it all looks amazing from her vantage point - so clever, but so much work. I will probably put in hebes and rosemary when the garden is finally built, as they are well behaved tidy looking plants, then I have lots of herbs for the cooking and also so I can go and stick my head in them - I LURVE the smell of basil......will do practically anything for it, so I always have loads of that in pots kicking about. My friend bought me a passion flower last week which had three beautiful flowers on it when she gave it to me which have since closed up and never come out again. The plant has loads of closed flowers on but they don't open. Any ideas?


    WaS - you actually saw real mantee..........so cool!!! I've been up close and personal with a lot of sea creatures, but never got to squish a manatee yet. **heads off to root through the fort garage for materials to construct the fort tank**


    Yea to having me me me days - don't we all? And I think we are supposed to not feel guilty for having them..........but we all do anyway.

    Calley where is your long chopper going to be from? I want one! Bearded one will kill me as I am quite accident prone, but our trees look awful where I have stood on a chair hacking away with loppers.

    I didn't get much done today Flybaby. Started out ok-ish but then spent the afternoon sitting around. Hubby says I need to get in to a routine as my eating patterns are bad causing my sickness to return so he wants me up by half eight in a morning to eat, do a few bits and then I can go back to bed if I need to. Will see how it works tomorrow.

    Fair fish is growing well, he is getting his tank cleaned tomorrow so that can be my morning job before I decide if I need more sleep or not.

    I was supposed to have gone to the cinema tonight with friends but cancelled as I was too tired. Wide awake now though and escapee is learning flamenco

    Flybaby, have you watered it in enough? Is it in a sunny enough spot?
