Poor soul - a great effort to make for GOY!! There should be a 'gold star' reward for photos taken like that...or up trees...or twisted in three dimensions...LOL. I'll look out for it and award you one myself - here's one to be going on with! *

Thanks Barbara, it is on with dare I say a pic of our Mandevilla!!!

Oh dont cry..........you will have to have a cunning plan!!!

I will indeed....as long as it doesn't involve turnips a la Baldrick! LOL.
