Two blooms on my Paph!

Exquisite flower Meanie.....

Absolutely fab...

looking really good ~ perhaps they are not talking to each other!!

Thanks guys!
They must be married Sticki!! (most of the seedlings rescued).

Absolutely!

meanie you made me laugh ~ thats about right!!! definitely right in this house just now.

glad to hear you managed to rescue some seedlings. will it be chilli cat tomorrow??

Thanks Michaella!
Sticki - it's pretty normal in most houses. Us men think that it is perfect!!!!

Doesn't bother me!

You two give me the shivers....I hate not talking. ;o)))

Gorgeous flowers Meanie. I am definitely buying a Paphiopedilum!!!

I don't mind talking - but there has to be something worth talking about!
My favourite subjects are Michelle Pfeiffer, Keira Knightly, motor racing (especially bikes), how often I win at Scrabble etc!!!!!

I think "worth talking about" is a matter of oppinion.

Oh NO , Not motor racing ,I would deffinatley turn my head the other way :o( it's great to see 2 gorgeous flower heads Meanie !

very nice Meanie..

keira knightly is very nice but maybe you would think about her in a different way meanie!!
i am perfectly happy not to talk!!!
i have to agree there has to be something worth talking about. i like it when people make me laugh ~ thats worth talking for or listening to.

But Alex, a mans opinion is always the right one!!!!
Thanks Amy and Surreylad!
I tend to think about Michelle more Sticki!! Sue says that I talk to her in my sleep, but she could be fibbing!

i dont think i want to know what you say to her!!!

does make you wonder though that you are not bothered about talking in the day but you talk in your sleep ~ when you do sleep that is!!!!

i shall ignore the comment about a mans opinion is always right ~ we know thats what you think but we dont have to agree.

If Sue's not fibbing I wish that I could remember!!!

get her to record it ~ make an amusing film!!!!

I threaten to do that to her after she's been out on a "girlies" night - apparently it would be the last thing thast I ever do!!

sue knows how to sort you out doesnt she!!! makes me laugh.

I just let her think that she does!!!!

typical male!!!

are you watching james may's man lab?

also have to say i was thinking of your comments when i was watching strictly come dancing ~ james jordan has exactly the same attitude ~ he says he is always right!!!

Who's James Jordan?

Beautiful

Thanks Sheilar!
I call this a "showy offy" type of bloom!

It looks sort of waxy doesn't it?

It is very waxy in the flesh........

professional dancer, im not interested in the dancing, just like the characters and the interaction oh and the competition, did i mention i was competitive?

Don't play me at Scrabble then!!

cant play wont play!!
i can play it actually but im no good at it.

i think you can play it online??

Sue has a friend who can be a little smug - she hasn't played me since I put Xenophobe down across two triple word scores! 260 odd points!

I can just imagine your smug smile as you put it down, how on earth did you manage a 9 letter word across 2 triples?? i am amazed you didnt drop the letters in your excitement

Easy! She thought that it was worth putting an N down so close to the triple word score and passing up on the othe TWS as she was putting all her letters down.
Smug to deflated in seconds!

No photographic evidence?

I daren't start doing that - they may start photographing my backgammon defeats!!

Touché !

Bet they appreciate the chilli though?

Clair probably would, but we keep it all to ourselves!!

well having tasted it i cant say i blame you!!

She does do a mean beetroot and cheese pastry slice.........

what cooked???

i have heard of cheese and beetroot sandwiches but is this in pastry?

Yup!

sounds interesting.
pastry case then ~ like a pasty? and raw beetroot slices with cheese slices inside?? cook for 25 mins???

Cooked beetroot, cubed and cubes of cheddar is the gist of it...............

cooked but not pickled presumably. thanks meanie

i think you could have your own youtube channel with exotic plants and cookery ideas.
