Thanks Sticki..can't beat a bit of colour in your cooking :o)

Thanks Leigh..this is the first airing for this pot..bought it last year,with this Fuchsia in mind..couldn't wait to get it down from the loft ! :o)
........
I agree,Carol..but they all look as though they are going to look good..so worth the wait :o)
.......
Thank you,Carole..I haven't been lucky with cuttings this year..a shame,as I was going to give you one..they started ok,but just died..no idea why :o(..this is last years I potted up ..

I dont blame you the pot is lovely-goes really well with the stone behind, is that house or wall? :-)

22 Jul, 2012

 

Thanks Leigh..it's the house wall at the back ..but we have a lot of the same walling all around,and on each side of the steps..and a bit of garden in between ! :o)

slow like the chef haha, lovely fuschia but cant stand him, so boring to watch

22 Jul, 2012

 

I didn't mind him,San..but that hair ! Preferred him to Gordon Ramsey though,anyday..I switch off he comes on..can't even bear his voice ! ..takes all sorts eh ? :o)

22 Jul, 2012

 

Not too keen on that particular chef but oh what a very pretty fuschia. Perhaps you could change its name by deed poll! Gino d'Acampo or Delia or Hairy Biker? Sorry I am being silly now - thoughts of that campsite and nights under the stars!!

Lol,Chris..maybe just the surname then .Barlow,Newman ?
..or just plain Gary..and yes,you are being silly..are you trying to plead insanity so your OH won't want to take you with him ? :o))..stop being such a wuzz,and get out there,in the great outdoors ..forget the outside showers ! :o))))

23 Jul, 2012

 

: - )
Just call it Gary for my sake!!!

24 Jul, 2012

 

Ok,will do ...just for you..and I see your OH has managed to persuade you to go camping,with either his charms ,bribery,or your arm up your back ! ..just seem your PM..Lol..have a lovely time,and hope the weather is kind to you :o) x

Many thanks - I think the weather is about to go downhill at the weekend - that should add to the enjoyment shouldn't it?!!!

25 Jul, 2012

 

I think it is going to stay fine,Chris..but a bit cooler .take your bedsocks and you will be fine :o)..We haven't seen any sun today..very cloudy but still warm..a lot more bearable than yesterday :o)

25 Jul, 2012

 

I like your optimism and wish I shared it.
