From a wet Cornwall, good morning folks
Upsy, stamps are expensive......maybe send electronic cards?
Re tulip planting, I usually pot them up to plant out when the gaps are clear in the garden. In spring they go exactly where I want them I do this with daffs, hyacinths, lilies, anemone blanda.
Keep warm and dry everyone

@Upsy Daisy it's ok, you didn't offend me.
Have a good day.

Been out collecting seeds from dahlias. Not a lot, but some. Trimmed the helleborus leaves with black spots and holes and to my absolute amazement, I saw a bearded iris with buds!.

The sun is now out and it has been a mild day.

 

[Logan]

I'll do my helebore leaves in January. I've had alsroemerias flowering and a helebore.

 

[Verdun]

Just halved my home insurance quote. Got money for more plants now!

 

[alp]

Well done! Because of the mistake by my insurance broker, I only paid less than £210 this year all on DD too.

That's great news @Verdun Hubby found that if he has a new company each year, he'd get a discount for being a new customer.

 

[Logan]

Didn't plant my raspberry canes,it started to rain. Have to do them tomorrow but, it's going to be a bit more cold.

 

[Verdun]

cold but dry will be fine Logan.......you have made me lick my lips now; prob get a few more myself now
It is true a new customer discount is often available but you can also haggle with your current insurer and ask for a loyalty bonus or a price match.

I'll tell him that, thanks.
Yes they're fine for the time being.

@Upsy Daisy - Are you suggesting that you and Logan are the specially chosen few - privy to pain AI language? Hehe! I can speak pain AI language, too! Don't exclude me! [/QUOTE]

Oh no of course not @alp ( I seem to be causing people upset lately.....must read through my post properly before posting) I can ensure you that I am well aware that you and a lot of others on here have sadly got your own share of ailments and aches and pains. I was only showing @Logan some support in letting her know that I know to some degree of what she is going through with her ' water work' problem. Sorry

I was only joking.. I like to tease and sometimes laugh at myself.. Don't worry. I really think that sometimes ignorance is bliss .. especially when I found out what autism is .. Mind you, it could have been much worse and I have seen some severe cases. I count my blessings all the times and feel sorry that people know and suffer such immense pains..

Morning all

Good morning to all and especially to Logan - not so mild as yesterday, but not so bad as the day before. Going to finish wallpapering the big bedroom and going tidy up the garden if it is warm enough for me to weed.
