  1. Very impressed with the accuracy and distance ahead of Weather Warnings.Notified today that very heavy and disruptive snow will occur on 25th November this year,that's nailed on too.
  2. Ah the irony,a 4th Water Company has hinted at hosepipe bans,I thought it had rained quite a lot
  3. Not a wind up..you can Google it.Saturday 4th May is World Naked Gardening Day.Window boxes count.Dont use shears,Dock leaves for the nettles and beware those fiendish brambles.Any references to Bush trimming incurs a one year ban.Should be fun.
  4. First phase Gladioli poking through,just a few of my favourite Tiger Lilies showing nearly all destined for new homes,only purchased 450 bulbs in total,concentrating on cheap perennials helped by the greed of garden centres and supermarkets.
  5. A massive black cloud has decended over our house.Millwall are losing to already relegated Rotherham and Basingstoke were beating Salisbury.
  6. Didn't realise until today how much I love Tulips so many beautiful varieties.New place I'm custodian of a community garden.Not had any work done to.it in 15 years,but I can't make it any worse....hopefully lol
  7. Suns out time to do second lot of Summer bulbs.Bit boring staggering the Gladioli planting but ends justify the means.Only got about 250 mixed bulbs left.Non Stop Begonias and hanging baskets ordered so considering the weather not far off where I'd like to be.
  8. Andy Bownfixture pile up looms only positive sadly leagues losing lots of teams so not the same pressure perhaps
  9. Weird...fairly placid...all of a sudden all hell let loose.Was there a sting jet or similar.The trees were really struggling bending this way and that.Can confirm sleet splodges too.On arrival big branch got snapped in the wind at home residents chainsawing and clearing it up.
  10. *Stormforce~beka* one lovely lady.She says my visits cheer her up,still think a full size cake is too big a reward
  11. The cake was devine.Another of my eightysomethings still gardens,has the best garden ive ever seen.I dont work for her,just visit now she makes me a cake every time.She forgets,she falls,she injures herself,but gardening and cake making she has few rivals,they keep her alive.One of a kind,that lady.
  12. Fell for the little old lady 3 card trick yet again.Lawns about 70 metres by 25..grass about 8 inches long.Completely filled her green rubbish bin,sweated,cursed,lured in by her homemade fruit cake and coffee lol
