    • Half a dozen fresh eggs laid on my doorstep I still haven't worked out how they manage to ring the door bell

        When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it.
        If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

          The chickens, or the eggs?

          • The eggs, Jules - there's no sign of the chickens. They must jump up, ring the bell with their beaks and fly away before I open the door. This is the 2nd time they've done it and its most perplexing Makes me happy though

            • The bluebells in the little wood that my mum planted over twenty years ago now make me very happy. I planted the bluebells a few years ago as they were her favourite flowers.

                    Oh, how sad....it's like those old fashioned stories where babies were abandoned on doorsteps. No notes?

                    Gorgeous Verinda - are they the scented variety?

                    That was a made-to-measure special, dead cheap, from ebay. I was a bit worried that it wouldn't fit but it did - I just had to take in the seams under the arms. And then I plastered it in 2000+ beads & sequins and made the wrap to match. Oh, and I made the pouffy petticoat underneath....

                    Anyhoo - happiness is waking up and knowing, in your heart of hearts, that your son is ok. He's been checked out, he's fine. Deep breath and relax......

                    • Well, I have to confess I don't know if they are scented! Someone gave me a pile of them dug up from an old ladies garden and they are gradually spreading which is brilliant. Hmm, gonna have to go and sniff them now! I'll let you know. Do regular bluebells have no scent?

                      • Bluebells have the most wonderful scent - slightly spicy - a real knockout when you walk through a bluebell wood. The invasive Spanish bluebell has very little scent

                            Oh thank you VC. I hope mine are native, thankfully they do have a lovely scent (I had a good sniff!) but I havent checked the colour of the pollen yet, i must do that tomorrow.
