Thought I was going to have a heart attack. A bit tight in the chest and really didn't want to get up and after 45 minutes of quick work, now perspiring.
Raining! Thank heavens .. Nice to have a bit of rain as it has been about 10 days without. Wouldn't it be nice if rain and heat comes at regular intervals. Back to more work.

That doesn't sound good alp , you may of been having a panic attack ? awful day today rain and windy
Seen a job come up at a garden centre I go to often , they are looking for a plants person, tempted to apply its one of the jobs I've always been interested in. But not sure it would mean I would lose the jobs permanently working for my dad / when he retires and if I did get the job at GC and didn't like it I can't go back to my old job. The pay at the GC will be more as well and over a year unlike now

Yes, Perki. I must be a bit more careful. I think I must have overworked for the past 3 days and gee, today has been another killer. Just had a shower and still haven't finished getting rid of the woodchips. Now that the woodchip boards are removed (They are rather thick and can cut you), there are some cracks and one let in very cold air. Tomorrow I am going to view a house with 4 bedroom with the kitchen under polycarbinate panel roof! How weird! But for that money for a detached house, I need to have a look. But the garden is only 70 feet.
Perki - have a go and when they are really interested in hiring you, you can think about it. Perhaps they can let you off one or two slack days. Shame not to put your feet in the door. Try it for a while. I like my posh gc, but when viewing a house, the lady owner said that nursery worked her husband to the bone and he lost quite a few stones. I hope you apply for it and find out more about it.
Talking about a job in a gc! Ex's cousin moved to Wales and whilst shopping in a gc, one lady asked for advice and his cousin offered advice. On the spot, she was offered a job. When she moved, she had a whole lorry load of orchids! I bet that was an orchid question! LOL!
Boy, I'm soooo tired - standing on a ladder the whole day. I'm afraid it's groundhog day again!

This one is full of pollen. I will hand-pollinate them on Wednesday!

Woke up too late and missed my tumble drying session. The alarm has failed to work. Tonight, I have to use 2 and wash the whole thing again. Annoyed with myself.
Electrician will be in tomorrow and today is the final push! Another day with the stripping knife! Will sow some broad bean tomorrow and do whatever recommended in the January calendar! Can't wait.

Morning all
A much brighter day today than it as been cold though a few more seed and plant catalogues came yesterday so will be having a look through them.

I have the gardening porn from Sarah Ravens and I would have a look when I had time tomorrow. Been out to seeing some houses.
One thing for sure, even rubbish looks nice in colour. I rushed to view this bungalow, on its plot again. But to travel to the house, we had to go down a bumpy road and after that A13 traffic noise droned on non-stop. Then went to another house in the best location, very near the post office and right on top of the area, but the garden was robbed of the sunshine by it neighbours. 2pm home and after meal worked non-stop until 6pm.
Such lovely weather here, too, Zenj! It's so nice inside the car - felt absolutely glorious and hopeful.
Saw my old friend, pink hellebores with lovely freckles
This is a lovely revamp! Hey! Thank you to the web-designers! Bravo!
So much faster!

This one is really dark and sultry!
This is today's beauty - pink single freckled!
So easy to hit the thumbnail!

Good morning and it's a cold morning. Got up 4.12 to do the laundry. Electrician's going to be here today, so I will have time to go and label the hellebores and hopefully shift some to pay for the expense.
