:hello: Good morning everyone - wishing you a very happy
Sunday! Hope you are all well.

Lol - seems to be a bit of an elephant theme going on
today!

Hope all goes smoothly with your move sylv. :A

A barbie yesterday sounded lovely fire**fly! Just perfect
for this weather. It's another beautiful day here



so more gardening for me!

I was out early too f**f - gave all my plants in containers
a good soaking (got loads of them ). Also fed birdies
etc and gave bird baths a good clean. Just love the early
mornings - everything is so fresh and gorgeous! :j

Good luck with your DD's birthday buffet preparations
sheils. I'm sure the day will be brilliant! :T

morning everyone,

Hot day here again, just off to get some shopping then will go for a walk along the prom I think.

Indie - glad you got a few days off with this good weather :j

Inkling - cake sounds great good luck with the baking:) I noticed a cake in asda the other week that looked like a giant boiled egg that when cracked was full of sweets and sponge!

Sheils - glad you are home safe and enjoyed your stay. Hope DD has a great birthday. My youngest son is learning to drive at the mo and is putting in for theory this week fingers crossed ! Hope you get your buffet sorted I'm sure they will enjoy:)
Leanfun - glad the sun is with you too:)
Alfie - love the naked gardening day pics :rotfl::rotfl:
Sylv - good luck with the move and packing:)

Alfie/FF - and the gardeners amongst us- I've got a few empty containers and looking to fill with something that doesn't need anything much doing to it but will give a bit of colour and keep coming back year on year - any suggestions - are they called perenials? don't suppose I'm asking for much!!!

have a good day everyone and good luck

thanks:)

hi theluckofthedraw :wave:
i'd go for lavender & herbs for your pots,
low maintenance with gorgeous aromas & the added
lovely colours of the flowers each year

Well I too made it out into the garden, just clearing though. Very hot out there so kept coming in for a break.

Fire Fly barbicue sounded just what you needed. Great to be able to eat outside.

Theluckofthedraw hope you enjoyed your walk.

Sheils sounds as though you are well prepared for your birthdays. Hope you all have a great time.

Good luck everyone.

Hi

Thanks FF, heather will be a definite for a couple of the pots. I think we will just get general bedding plants for the rest and make an effort to turf them out at the end of the season!

Walk was lovely went to a place called 'Nicky nook' and it was beautiful. The dog came with us as it is a good walking place and the scenery is great, it was sooooo hot though.

Hope everyone's had a good sunny day:)

Going to watch the Bafta's then dream of that WEM winning a goodie bag!!

lovely you getting out in garden leanfun :j
been very hot here too & been in & out the shade,
once the weather starts getting warm here quite a few of the
neighbours start doing barbies &/or
wine & nibble evenings in the gardens,
always is nice for an hour or so :j


heathers sound good for your pots theluckofthedraw :dance:
had some gave me a few years ago & had them in
pots for a bit but found they dried out very quickly
if not watered regularly so
i transferred them into the garden,
your walk sounds lovely,
lol, hope your dream comes true re goodie bag

It turned really hot here today too. Supposed to be hotter tomorrow.We were out weeding for a bit earlier and had a little walk to town.


Just Googled your walk theluckofthedraw. It looks good. We have never been to the Forest of Bowland although we keep meaning too.

great you got your walk sheils,
know how you enjoy them,
always weeding to do in the garden
amazes me sometimes how quickly they seem to
appear!!
still, some are good for the environment & encourage the
good insects :dance:
