Hi guys found out how o link up at work! no idea what the weather is doing, they keep me in a dark room But at least the babies have been behaving today. Nearly Friday!

[Hazel at the Hill]

..... rapidly coming to the conclusion,there are no bass left in the English channel

That's because they've all been nailed to plaques - I give you Billy Bass.

[Hazel at the Hill]

Evening folks! It's looking gloomy out there - we may be in for rain.

I'm going to bottle this year's parsnip wine this evening - I never know why it takes so long, but it does. Hey ho.

In sad news, old Merlin cat next door rallyed from his bout of being-nearly-dead a couple of weeks ago, and has had a really good week being his old self, but a relapse last night and last-chance vet treatment today (which hasn't pulled him round this time) means that I suspect his return visit in the morning will be a one way journey.

*sniff

Right - those wine bottles won't sterilise themselves.

Evening its looked and felt like rains on its way all day here but nones arrived yet, sorry to hear about Merlin Hazel.

[Glutton4...]

Eeeeeeeeeeeevenin' Peeps. I do miss popping in here, but with extra gardening to do, time seems to be disappearing at an alarming rate. Hope everyone is hale and hearty, haven't got time to read back beyond this page, so I hope I haven't missed anything - sincerest apologies if I have, and put my foot in it, so to speak.

Sorry to read the post above regarding your Neighbour's cat, Hazel, and ((((HUGS)))) to you both. I was given some extremely horrible and sad news from a client today. The sort of news that makes you sit back and really think about things. I don't want to waffle about it on here, but, I dunno, just found it so upsetting, I guess. Be thankful for what you have, Peeps.

Anyway, it's Gin o'clock here. Cheers!

[Hazel at the Hill]

Cheers, Glutton - although it's tea only for me tonight - I try and have a couple of alcohol free days each week, and this is one of them.

You'd think that it would be a temptation to sample the parsnip wine that I've just bottled, but no - it tastes absolutely awful until it's been in the bottle for at least one, and preferably two years.

I don't know where the time goes either, G4 - I'm just able to have tea, and it's practically bed time!!

Thanks to you and to Bren for your good wishes with regard to Merlin, he's an old cat who has had a great life, but it's always sad to lose them, isn't it?

Billy Bass made me news of Merlin remember the good time Hazel ((((((hugs))))))



Oh yer,I totally blanked fishing tonight

[Hazel at the Hill]

Thanks, BB.

Well, call me a liar, I did end up going to the pub after all - seems I got my wires twisted. I tell you, it was a quick turn around to get ready - I was wallowing in the bath when my lift arrived! So much for an early night.

That's me then - I'm away to my gwely. Nos da, BB and anyone else still around.

PS - Almost forgot - who was victorious in the crazy golf??

[Florence Fennel]

Good Morning and Happy Friday! It's another hot one, long may it continue, well at least until my working day is over. Have a good one

[Nicos]

Good moaning!

Well, those storms were were supposed to have never arrived
Looks like we're in for another lovely day here too Flo.

I'm hoping to transplant more self seeded flowers today- got loads of lupins, English marigolds, nasturtiums and cornflowers all growing in the driveway and veg plots.
A few look good, but the nasturtiums take over the beds and smother the veg.

Funny how I'm rubbish with flower seeds but the self seeded ones do really well

I've got a few rogue poppies amongst the veg and I'm really chuffed they've come up....anyone else grow flowers amongst the veg or veg amongst the flowers?

[Tripmeup]

Morning all.....

It's FRIDAAAAAAAAAY....yay

On the down side, it's raining...Boo........
I suppose it's needed tho, so shouldn't complain....

[bearded bloke]

Morning all

Cloudy with rain later here,according to the people with seaweed 'n "stuff"

Almost forgot - who was victorious in the crazy golf??

Herself won as predicted but only by one stroke Tell yer what though,it is a brilliant course Will post some pic's when I get back to a proper speed connection

[Bigmallly]

I've got a few rogue poppies amongst the veg and I'm really chuffed they've come up....anyone else grow flowers amongst the veg or veg amongst the flowers?

Good morning Grapeland, Yes Nic, I try (when I remember) to put flowers amongst the veg. I mainly remember when planting into the SFG....................

[Bren In Pots]

Morning we've got more wind than sunshine today think we've been spoilt lately.

I've got a few rogue poppies amongst the veg and I'm really chuffed they've come up....anyone else grow flowers amongst the veg or veg amongst the flowers?

I let my flowers self seed all over the veg plot and only pull those up that are in the way when I'm planting out. Its only the forget-me-nots I have to be ruthless with or they would take over.

[veggiechicken]

Happy Friday - let's start the day with CAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE
