Hi Karen. Your Betula jacquemontii looks good and the variegated Cornus. Feel the summer is gradually drifting away, AGAIN. Your garden looks great though, as ever :-)

That's a nice intimate corner Karen. I know your plan was to cut down on being overlooked - looks like you're well on track for that. :-))

Funny you should mention Muddy...Rachel and I sat out there this morning and honestly, it felt really quite private. I am very pleased with the way the 'screening' is coming along, and in a couple more years.....it should be great! Thanks!

OK Karen. :). Yes, let's be positive I think we could live with a few weeks of scorching weather.

2 Jul, 2012

 

All this naughty talk about cake is making me desperate . . . ;-))

2 Jul, 2012

2 Jul, 2012

 

I even had the oven on and the scales out before I realised I only had low fat spread in the house!! DARN! I've got lemons and everything!

2 Jul, 2012

 

Lol! . . . no Wedding cake here Karen. Although I do have two teenage daughters still at home! Mmmm . . lemon drizzle cake is one of my favourites too ;-))

2 Jul, 2012

 

I've walked miles in that mist and muck this morning, then gone out to post seeds to Rose in it, i'll be darned if I'm going to the shop as well....p's off there's no wedding cake left....you know, it is customary to save a tier for friends who couldn't come to the wedding Muddy...feel you have let me down somewhat.....(sulks off to watch Andy get thrashed)

2 Jul, 2012

 

My 1st ex probably has the spare tier - with a bit of luck she'll choke on it . . LOL! ;-))

2 Jul, 2012
