I seriously think you ALWAYS have a spotless house and I think you and Logan are both domestic goddesses,

Hold that good thought, Alp! My husband thinks I'm barely domesticated, and definitely knows I'm no goddess.

Ooops! I think he's jealous of your cats .. I know you are and we know you are. He knows you are. He's just want to spur you on .. I am a dead horse, so spurs have no effect on me! The love of gardening has overwhelmed me. Seeds everywhere and empty pots I could bear to part with.

What a lovely day! Sunshine even hot and it's just lovely in the car. Outside the car, the cold air just hit my face hard. This beautiful gc was very exposed. Anybody wants to go to Brentwood, do visit Bonnetts' Village and Thurrock gc was lovely, but the bargain stall was not there!:cry::arghh:!

What a disappointment! Bought a reed fence for £5.99 for the back and some Vinca atropropurea ??? for £1 each. Lovely pots of heavy growth. Bought three to hide the concrete and the wood edge.

This afternoon been to my friends, Marion and Dave, had a good time. Marion is Keith's day carer.
@alp what were you disappointed about?

Nice that you had a good day. The bargain stall where I got my foxgloves goldcrest, and many others for £1.99 was not there!

Hahaha! Love those gremlins! Apparently, Tomas Schafenaker said there will be thick snow by the end of the week. We in the south won't be spared.

I hope all the True crimes channels will be on true crimes. Fed up with adverts for Castles or Bull. I have found these true crimes very gripping. And then a cup of hot tea. Son said that Mother's Day will be no work for me. Why can't every day be a Mother's Day? Hahaha! Then I might feature in the film 700LB woman! :eek::D

I tell you, when I saw the amount of flesh, I just wanted to cry! I feel so sorry for her!

You should have seen them - a slim man and this big swathe of flesh spilling all over the bed and EATING! It could be something to do with her metabolism ... :cry:

This is called Salix, but it looked like witch hazel. I really love it. £12.99. I will get one when reduced.

I was given tons of these by Farmer Gracie. Big and lovely. These are all from Bonnetts
