My internet was playing up again. And the phone line was very noisy. A call to to Yorkshire firm and a man read out a statement for getting an engineer out which might result in £68 ...

I had done a network reset this morning and it worked. I suspected Yorkshireman is angry that my son used his ethernet wire for his Mac ..

@Zenj 's flowers have calmed me down a bit. The first flower h??? can't remember it again. I love the white brush .. very pretty. and the gaillardia is so pretty. This year, I finally have my first few Gaillardias .. after spending £1 in poundshop. They are really statement making.. quite a confident and bold flowers. The white brush is stunning. The first one is your previous avatar but a different colour. Very pretty ... still going strong .. your garden, as @Logan says.. I'd better post this before Yorkshireman has a fit. LOL!

@alp for the internet, we are with Virgin media and for the phone with BT. Don't have any TV with them. If we have a problem with internet they'll come out free of charge. With BT it all depends where the falt is. We get charged if it's in the house.

I always try to solve the problem myself. Now when I have a problem, I just do a network reset. I wonder if Yorkshireman sent us the noise. LOL!

Ah, snapdragon.. Next year, I will grow some .. hehe! I really relish the prospect of having some deep red, nearly black snapdragons in my garden.. Nice snapdragons, @zenji really makes me look at snapdragons from a different light!

Evening all.
Give you a update on my bladder infection.
Dr. Gave me a examination and said I've got a prolapsed bladder. Due to the menopause and low estragen. Got some HRT peseries to use. Then maybe a longer cause of antibiotics. Got to go back in 3-4 weeks.

Keep well, @Logan ! Hope it doesn't cause you too much pain. I hope HRT and antibiotics help and that they get you back to good health.

Good morning, the internet is playing up again. Better send this before it gives me a yellow light.

@alp Oh dear, it's still playing up then? Just finished the vaccuming. Couldn't do the tubs yesterday,it was raining all day and into the night. I can do them this morning. Picked some of the snaps from them, don't like doing that, but they'd only go in the bin.

I was expecting tubs full of rain. No, not even the slim butt is full.. Now I await Saturday's rain, if there is any. Good that it clears up your way, @Logan .

More snaps from Powys Castle, Mid Wales - one of the best gardens in Wales. I think it's even prettier than Bodnants or Dyffryn
