Cat, camera & obvious morning glory obsession...!!

Hehehe Fluff, Phoebe is definately a computer geek, maybe she wants to get some online time of her own :o) well worth the wait tho' great shots and I love that butterfly, superb shot that one. I know what you mean about the racks of plants left unwatered, it is the same at our B&Q, either that or they are overwatered and rotting, surely the employee's are put through some sort of training in the gerdening dept of these DIY giants?

Thanks Bob...all I can say is they must make too much profit if they can afford to waste all those plants...

Great blog and pics Fluff. I don't think any of the DIY stores look after plants too well. Maybe Homebase is not too bad if you want to pay through the nose.
I think gorgeous Phoebe is definitely trying to get that interloper off your lap!. Daisy has given up and now lays on my boney ankles (like now) when I'm sitting feet up with the laptop tuned into GoY. She does get her turn though as she lays on me ALL night too!

He he great blog yes I think she was trying to tell you some thing. Has the look of defience too. Love your gladiolia and your morning glory is wonderful.

Phoebe is lovely and seems very determined to have a share of your attention, bless her. Very frustrating to find dead plants in stores, our worst offender is Wilkinsons and the new 99p store. Really makes me cross :(

I think B@Q take some beating in neglecting plants,i've had some good bargains from there.

Oh, how I agree about the poor neglected plants! It makes me MAD when I see them!

Lovely photos, Fluff, and how come your sweet peas are still flowering? Did you plant them in the spring?

Great blog Smokey gives me looks that would kill when i'mon my laptop, he asumes he should sit on my knee everynight, love the orange rose.

Lovely photos Fluff and so much colour still. I don't blame you for your Morning Glory "obsession", they are just gorgeous. And I like your cat too!

Great blog again Fluff love the sedum and the orange glad. Funny how cats can demand our attention.

Thanks everyone...you are all so nice with your comments.
Lily...Phoebe sleeps on me too if I let her...sometimes I have to shut her in the living room just to get a good night's sleep!
Morgana...for a cheap bag of bulbs from Wilkinson's the glads turned out full of colour variety even tho' they didn't all flower. Everyone was a different hue & it was lovely to walk round the garden & spot them as I'd forgotten where I planted them of course!!
Gee & Tulsa...I wouldn't mind but sometimes they still try to sell plants that are so obviously dead & irretrievable....but I agree...if you catch them at the right time there are some great bargs to be had!
Spritz I planted the sweet peas far too late...that's why they're still going. The frost will see them off I suppose but they've yielded some lovely bunches of perfume.
Clarice... Phoebe sits at my feet & yowls at me to move the laptop to the edge of my knees so she can jump up! Such a madam...she's doing it now!!
Thanks Mad & Drc...last bit of colour in the garden!!

Loved the blog (as always) Fluff. Pheobe knows what she likes all right.
By the way have you any photo's of Morning Glory you could post for me? ;~))

Thanks Digger... she's superglued to me these days for some reason...think she feels hubby has abandoned her after going back to work!
As for MG photos...no...I don't think there will be any more forthcoming...wouldn't want to overdo it..............................................................................................& if you believe that...hey hey!! ;0)))))

Great blog Fluff !
Phoebe's lovely :o).
My laptop is very slow too and my computer is even slower. It takes ages.
Liked the morning glories. Mine all got eaten by slugs this year
Is the variegated fuchsia Sunray or Tom West ?

You had a bargain then even though they did nt all flower, also a nice surprise then lol.

It's a Sunray Hywel...I think the leaves are every bit as pretty as the flowers. Will it be ok outside for the winter?
Good old Wilcos Morgana!!

Thats where I bought my last lot of bulbs from cheaper than the others.

They've got bargain shelves there today...stuff is 75% off...got a wooden trellis for £1 & 2 packs of bulbs for 39p! Whohoo!

Sunray is not hardy Fluff. You'll have to put it in a cold but frost-free place for the winter.

Hmmm....that'd be my kitchen then! Lol! Spare room it is then. Thanks Hywel.

I saw the bargain shelf Fluff 75% off bird feeders should have been £ 4 only £1 . I bought two !
Our Wilkingsons plants are dreadful almost all dead , I can't understand why they bother to sell them if they can't do it properly ........

Too right Amy. I got a feeder too...it rained today & when I got home I went out to replenish the feeders & got a faceful of rainwater from the top of it! Nice!

The first time I saw Morning Glory was on your pics Fluff and I'm hooked !! There can never be too many pics as far as I'm concerned !! lol Got my seeds on order from T & M already !
Phoebe is a babe ... !! :-))

Lovely blog but I wish you'd included some morning glory pics,.

Thanks Sue & Wagger...Phoebe agrees totally & if it hadn't been dark when I got home tonight I would've been out there again to snap today's edition of MGs!!!
Oh the year is galloping away...getting dark earlier now. It was pitch when I left the house this morning & when I got back!!

It's a pain isn't it Fluff. I always know when Winter's coming 'cause I start drawing the living room curtains ... never bother in the Summer ! :-((

Hey Sue...Need a torch to get to the car in the morning...trip over the cat I've just let out...bit parky so need a coat but too hot by the time the car heats up...get to work & everything still in darkness so put all lights on only to turn them all off again in half an hour's time when the sun comes up...

That difficult twilight - too light for your headlights on but just getting dingy enough to squint out the windscreen in that half-light...chilly nip in the air when walking round the garden at dusk...worrying toms are going to get too cold & never ripen...arguing about whether to turn the heating on yet...drawing the curtains, looking for the draught excluder put away from last winter,cat who stays out all night in summer banging at the door to be let in at 6pm...&...horror of horrors...will there be a frost tonight & kill off the Morning Glories???!!!!

Noooooooo !!!!! Not the Morning Glories !!!! lol
When I was working I did the 3 shifts, Mornings, Afternoons and Nights, so I well remember what it was like !! Gets even worse when the clocks go back ! Find that you don't see anyone 'cause they're all indoors with the curtains shut ! lol

I LIKE Morning Glories! Gorgeous colours & really pretty! You put them up as much as you like!

Okey dokey MadP...bit Regents at the moment tho! ;o)

Bit what??

Regent's Park....dark! ;o)

LMAO!!! Doh! I've been online too long, I think! This catching up is h**l after a week!
