Good afternoon, warm but cloudy today when watering the greenhouse the s morning I decided to blast the tomato plants with water to see if I can get rid of the plague of whitefly and greenfly

Rary, next year try growing french marigolds around your tomato plants. Guaranteed to keep white fly and aphids away

Evening all, a very warm humid day here. Attended yet another funeral today, my uncle and the 4th since March, think we have had our fair share for a while don’t you?!
Anyhoo very tired, it’s been a long day so will say goodnight, hope you all had a good day.

[Jay22]

Morning, think this is the earliest I’ve been on here! Think I’ve managed to bag the best dress?!
I’m sooo tired I can’t sleep, strange that isn’t it? Anyhoo will pop in later and see what’s what!

Good Morning All and Jay Dull again here and still warm. Have a good day

Mornin n'alln'all
Wow Jay....you look stunning this morning -nice choice of clothing
Ermmmm.....don't forget to take off that night cap though before you go out!

I too had a great day yesterday. I wanted to nip to Falaise (our local town where William the Conquerer was born) as there is an amazing discount store there called Noz.
On the way home we bought a replacement picnic table for one of our gites, so will need to assemble that today....then popped in on some friends to invite them to an impromptu BBQ.
Finished the evening sipping wine around our firepit....Perfek

Mornings!
Very strange weather this morning after yesterday's heat and humidity. It's overcast and breezy and 16C - it actually feels cold.
Managed to let 2 of the 3 vacant plots, yesterday - fingers crossed they keep at it and not give up after a little while. Everyone seems to expect instant results thanks to all the TV gardening shows.

Indoors is a tip, tbh, so think domestics really must come top of the list today *blush*

Have a good'un

Hot and windy outside, but maybe 22 ºC in my summer 'office', where I'll be stuck for the day. Mind you, better in here than anywhere else. Might even need to find a cardie!

Sorry to hear about all the funerals you've had to attend, Jay. Hope you manage to get a nap later to recharge your batteries.

Have a good day, everyone.

Good morning all.
A breezy morning but its dry.
No idea what's on the cards today.
Hubby is out meeting a long time friend so the day is mine.
I'm sure something will show itself to fill the day.
Plenty to do but I am being picky.
Have a good day all,

Good afternoon, I have had a busy day today, took the dog for a walk then OH and I had to see to bit of business, then down to Kilmarnock to pick up a kilt for one of the boy's, we had our lunch at a GC there, just finished when we got a phone call from school, our youngest grandson suffers from hay fever and he was quite bad could we bring in some medication for him, so it was home to pick up the medicine then up to the school to give it to him, then down to the docs. for a prescription for him then the chemists for the medication, oh and in between go to the builders and place an order for my boy so that he can get some work done n it he garden when he is off, after all I have plenty of time to do what I want in the garden. Now I am sitting at my daughter's with her boys waiting to go to our sons till they come home, when I read that its possibly the rant thread I should be on. No matter its a nice day so smile

Jay sorry about all the funerals you have had to attend, sadly life's like that, but be grateful you are not the main attraction

[Tripmeup]

Trip a victory always equates to a celibration
But! I take it your son and daughter are young and receiving pocket money, if so be sure to give them their pocket money before going to any game then if they win you then tell them you are so pleased with their football skills and think they deserve to have some ice cream, then you pat your pockets and state, "oh sorry I gave the last of my money earlier," this should produce either a "that's OK, we won't bother" or "that's OK come on and I/we will buy you one" do not use this procedure too often as children aren't as gulable as someone standing at a bar also it is unlikely that they will win every game, and remember if one wins and the other loses, it wouldn't be nice to buy just for the one and the ice cream for a celibration it wouldn't tast the same to someone who lost

Thanks Rary...such wisdom from one so young
I don't know how you do it

It's a gift that I have Trip, a gift!!

[veggiechicken]

Some Garden pics

Mentioned in a previous post that I am doing some bits and pieces on replacing bed borders and some other stuff like sizes etc
Still a work in progress but my slight remodeling is coming along well...will hold off doing some of the outstanding work until certain crops are harvested.
Happy with the way it's looking so far..
