I like that one Shirley, very pretty.
20 Aug, 2014
Oh I like this one, very unusual :)

My Favourie Sedum too,Shirley..also gifted from Carole...:o) I want to split mine this year too,to put in my long border..been having a clear out today !
20 Aug, 2014
Cinders & Waddy ... Glad you both like it too ... I shall divide it up in the Spring if either or both of you would like a piece?
Oh Sandra ... hope you haven't been too ruthless! :o)

Shirley,I can give Waddy a piece when we meet up,if she wants some ..I don't think she will say no :o)
I have been very ruthless ! Russell dug out a Clematis growing up my high wall..it hasn't done much for the past two years..and I was fed up of looking at boring foliage.. but I have a plan ! I am going to plant my Echinops there instead..It will be at the back of the border,and as it's huge this year,I will split it when it's died down..just as it happens,the Rudbeckia is in front of it..nice contrast,don't you think ? Oh,and we also trimmed all the Ivy on the wall...ruthless and satisfied :o) x

Sandra, well done on offering a piece of your Sedum to Julia. I wasn't able to use the computer yesterday, it kept taking me back to 'Homepage' so I am happy to report it's working today. Mind you, the vacuum cord re-wind has packed up, as has my paper shredder! There's bound to be a third thing. Grrr!
Cinders, I have made a note to send you a piece of the Sedum later in the year. :o)

Oh dear Shirley, I hope nothing else has gone wrong. Break a match to stop anything else happening.
I'm looking forward to my offering from Sandra in the spring. She has been very generous with her offerings in the past and they're all romping away.
22 Aug, 2014
Glad to hear you are back on track Shirley..this is much more important than your vac rewind and shredder :o)only kidding..I think lol.x..
I hope to be able to get one earlier too Julia,if possible..
I'll see if I can split one later in the year..
22 Aug, 2014
Not heard of breaking a match before, Julia ... :o)
Sandra, it's 8.15pm and the third event has yet to happen ... have suggested I just sit down quietly and get waited on hand and foot by Michael ... you can imagine the response to that one! :o)

I should hope it was something like"Seeing as there is no footie on TV,would you like to choose something you would like to watch,my dear ? " :o))
22 Aug, 2014
Yeah right! We did watch a few 'Would I lie to you?' programmes and laughed a lot ... :o)
23 Aug, 2014
We like that too,Shirley..especially Lee Mack :o)
23 Aug, 2014
Oh that would be nice Sandra.
Breaking a match Shirley is supposed to stop the run of bad luck. Superstition I know, but you never know....as for being waited on, what's not to like?!
23 Aug, 2014
Lovely.. added to GoYpedia :o)
23 Aug, 2014
Well, I have learnt something new today Julia!
Oh thanks Terra :o)
