I've received a few messages asking to continue the 1000 words thread. It has obviously given many people pleasure and some positivity. For anyone who doesn't know, posters come on with their photographs of pretty much anything and we take it from there. Nature is always a good one.

Yes I make tablet quite often

grandmajet Sun 14-Feb-21 15:54:03

Yes please! Did you make it, polomint?

polomint Sun 14-Feb-21 15:11:22

Tray of tablet...please help yourself to a piece of it

It’s in south norfolk Ellianne. They’ve spent many, many hours on it over the five years they’ve been there, it is lovely, and not yet finished.

Ellianne Sun 14-Feb-21 14:26:54

That looks almost tropical grandmajet. Is it in the UK? It's lovely the way it curves.

My lovely daughter’s lovely garden, last summer.

I’m having one of those nights where sleep eludes me, it must be the busy life I’m leading these days...I wish!
Snow still lingering in places here but still there are signs of spring around - hurray!

Spring flower snippings

A couple from the park yesterday toward late afternoon. Lots of compacted snow made walking on the paths precarious.

I went for a walk just before sunset yesterday. This is the photo I took of a tree in the churchyard.

Very miffed not to have any snow to photograph here! Lovely pictures!

I'm not sure if you will be able to see this without enlarging, but the white bits on the rock face are actually hanging ICICLES!

The sunshine today...before it snowed again

Sarah48 Sun 07-Feb-21 07:28:21

Ooh, that looks inviting Polomint, I’d love to be sitting there just now!

polomint Sun 07-Feb-21 01:14:23

Yesterday’s walk along the riverside.

Amaryllis flowers should last at least 10 days - often up to 3 weeks. Better moved to a slightly cooler spot once the flowers show.

FannyCornforth Sat 06-Feb-21 12:21:01

Derail, not detail

FannyCornforth Sat 06-Feb-21 12:20:36

Hello - I'm going to do a quick shameless detail, sorry!
Amaryllis - how long should one expect the flowers to last? I had one this year and it barely lasted five days sad This isn't right is it?

Lovely Amaryllis, Namsnanny. You could download the Waterlogue app and ‘paint’ your pictures on that smile
