Another useful drop of rain,so good for the gardens
-
My gardening shift today was interesting lol
-
Andy Bownfixture pile up looms only positive sadly leagues losing lots of teams so not the same pressure perhaps
-
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.

*Stormforce~beka* one lovely lady.She says my visits cheer her up,still think a full size cake is too big a reward
-
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.

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
-
I've always laughed at us being a cashless society.Two more companies have card glitches.Either shut or begging for cash to keep functioning.No pun intended but I think the penny will drop soon.
-
I'm always a bit weird at this time of year.Fishing has finished..work hasn't properly started..but I'm allergic to being indoors..not up to top notch plant price haggling so I tend to drive aimlessly about using.petrol but achieving absolutely nothing lol
-
Customer Service at its finest..lorry with grabber 3 hours late...went to get straw bales...they had none..was promised short wait for them to be delivered to customer with a call to me.No call but they've dumped them in the neighbours car port.All good stuff...and yes...I phoned regularly for progress reports.

jtay jtay no problem it might come in useful in the future that's all
-
jtay can always run plant purchases by me years of making contacts.Got bareroot Portuguese Laurel best priced between 80 and 120 for 53 quid new contact very impressed
-
surreal...last day fishing...mind wandering..peaceful...suddenly a lone female head wearing a pink bobble hat drifted past...had I lost the plot...no other female heads followed...How's the fishing today they called as they floated past.Thank god it was the wild swimmers club but I still need some beers tonight to calm my nerves
-
Many Thanks Dorset
-
Ordered a truck with a grabber today to clear big compost area.Flat fee...300 quid.Hardly anywhere sells single bales of straw either.
-
I'm working on its proper name but I've got a pink spiked flower,it's perennial,and attracts more bees than the cast of Zulu can't put it in tea gardens ect as the bees go after the cream teas lol
-
*Stormforce~beka* they are so helpful for me
-
Second Indian head massage today.No totem pole,no war dance which was a shame.Very relaxing,oils left my hair like Boris Johnson,but unlike the first one I had I stayed awake,last time asleep for 23 of the 30 minutes lol
-
With heavy heart I cancelled fishing to start planting Summer bulbs.Glad I did make a start but fishing season finishes Thursday so a tricky decision.Much smaller bulb order this year so probably 2 short planting shifts will sort.
-
jtay At what point will you have the whole of Wiltshire under cultivation lol
-
*Stormforce~beka* I meant the soil quality lol
-
It might not be game over.If it's to survive then it will send some shoots up from around the base.Could give the area near the base a gentle scrape.If its brown underneath a bit of a worry if green then in with a chance.Is the soil from where you dug footings out lol looks dodgy
-
Im tough enough Dorset to go into such places but what of the Polar Bears they are being moved to Bed and Breakfast rooms in local hotels.
-
Be prepared...frightening warnings in the papers.Once in 250 year snow event.Winchester will go missing,the New Forest may never recover,over 20 Polar Bears seen in Mrs Miggins Tearooms on Bournemouth seafront,I'm fine,200 toilet rolls purchased,100 loaves of bread.If the Met Office say it...we believe...right lol
-
jtay send their details I will send a refund.Its weird though,two years ago I bought 5000 Summer bulbs.before end April they were all gone.This year got 450 don't want the pressure of the large quantities any more
