Good Morning Thursday 25th August 2022

Good morning from a sunny north of Scotland. I had a lovely time with friends last night. Lots of laughs.
All the photos of gardens and holidays are wonderful.
Best wishes to those caring and with cares.

Good morning Mick and everyone. It’s cloudy in my corner of Lancashire, currently 16°C. Glad you got your appointment sorted Mick.

Another day of housework, physio, cycling and Gaelic lessons for me. The sky is clearing so may spend a little time in the garden.

Lovely to see people enjoying holidays, safe journey to all our travellers and virtual hugs to all our poorly or sad grans. So many of you cope graciously with heavy burdens.

Have the best day possible all ???

I love your pot of Agapanthus Marydoll I planted mine out into the raised bed and they sulked ! Just 3 flowering out of 6

Where has my post gone. Seems to have disappeared.

Aggie, we (the royal we), dug up the Agapanthus from my daughter's garden at her new home.
The garden had been sadly neglected, but the plant had about a dozen stems!

Good to see you posting, Megs.

Good morning Mick, Annie and all. Rain!, we have had rain, hooray. The water butts will be full and the garden thankful for a soaking.
Harrigran, such a tease with mention of all your delicious eating goodies. Our GD texted me last night and promptly began torturing me with all things delicious from the IOM where they are on holiday. Also she added pictures of our GGS enjoying the beach and his grandad's boat.
We have nothing planned for today, but should go shopping to fill our empty freezer. Yesterday the Window Doc should have come to look at the failed double glazing. But, he phoned to say that he had forgotten that he had promised his wife that he would move the horse box! Anyway, no rush, just so long as he does remember to fit us in.
Had a phone conversation with the oncology pharmacist yesterday morning , all is well, then my infusion in the afternoon. I was driven by a volunteer driver and due to road closures and diversions, it was a bit of a mystery tour.
Glad I did a big wash yesterday, all got dried beautifully in the sun and smells so nice.
Love the pictures of your garden Marydoll , but have a restful day and don't overdo things.
Sending gentle healing thoughts to all who are struggling at the moment.
Have a good day one and all.

Morning everyone, it’s been raining here for a few hours, quite heavy so maybe I’ll have a green lawn again. Nothing much today other than book club this afternoon where we will discuss last months book The Tenderness of Wolves by Stef Penney. Quite enjoyed it but it ended abruptly and left a few loose ends. Looking forward to the US Open next week, I really enjoy tennis. Have the best day you can, look after one another.

Just come back to read the posts properly. I love your new pot, Marydoll. Such a pretty colour. Your agapanthus look lovely in it.
I’ve not had any luck with my agapanthus that I bought last year - all I’ve got again are a mass of leaves. Healthy looking leaves, but no blooms. I’ll give them another season in their pots, then re-evaluate. I’m very disappointed in the lack of flowering, though. I suspect duds.

Just popped back to say thank you for the beautiful garden photos Marydoll
You have had too much on your plate Still learning but well done.
I woke up with a streaming cold, the first in years. I have taken a covid test but it's negative. I am resting anyway while the family are in the city.
