The 'What Makes You Happy' Thread (Part 4)

[susieq100]

First day of the school holidays! No work for 2 weeks and the chance to garden whenever I want. Many other jobs to do too, but still .......

[FROSTYFRECKLE]

Just back from a week away at Jubilee House in Penrith. There was 24 hour nursing care available for Mr Frosty and we were both well cared for. Think I may have put on a few pounds with the delish food available. Also got sunburn from helping to dig out Ladies Mantle - the staff want to develop a therapy garden but the area needs cleared first. All in all had a really good time and can't thank the staff enough.

Yesterday I planted out some lettuces and herbs, and left them in the overnight care of the slug mob. Today they are still there :-)

[Glutton4...]

Glad you had a good time, Frosty, and I hope you brought some Alchemilla home for your garden? Love the stuff!

[LillyRoseGarden]

Just a happy, happy day! Sold few more strawberries, comfrey plants and dahlias. Ah, you have to fund your addiction for new plants with smth.

- it's been a great sunny week on the lotty, which is really getting there now. It's not such a chore when the sun is out
- acupuncture has finally worked for me: it's sorted out my sore elbow pretty much
- these two always make me happy

Seeing colour in my little garden heaven,

Spuds in pots out of the green house might have room to work now.

Timing -

Cat finally stretches after his dinner, gets out of his basket on the terrace and wanders off.

Less than a minute later a juvenile blackbird makes its first flight, lands on the table on the terrace, falls off the table and straight into the cat basket. After a minute or two it ambles off and joins its dad (who gives it a slug ) before taking to the air once more.

Moments later Mum cat appears from the garden and goes and sits in the basket ...

[Glutton4...]

Port. Relaxes the aching muscles. I've been overdoing it lately.

That post above, from PP - hilarious! Would've still been funny if I hadn't been drinking Port.

Timing is VERY important in nature.

Fab!

(Don't worry, I'm not THAT p****d!)

...and another sunny day due here too....looking forward to sanding down all 3 outdoor tables and oiling them without them getting rained upon half way through!

[Potstubsdustbins]

The weather forecast makes me happy..................well it is a laugh.
