You had sun, you lucky thing!

Your garden is looking lovely, with all your plants standing up well to the rain. I'm waiting, not patiently, for my Montana to flower, so you're well ahead of me there.

(P.S. - Not all of your pics loaded for me)

looking really nice Pixi, love the little angel is it reading the book....

It does make you angry when some of them don`t appear..
The ones on here are lovely though, the Lithodora is gorgeous, I think mine has gone, now that really makes me angry, lol, we are having a proper April day, sunshine and showers.
I have lots of my dads tools as well, we as a family shared things out, some of them I remember using as a kid, I bet my newer ones don`t last as long.....

Haha! Sadly, I'm on a budget (shock, horror)!!! But it's amazing how little I can get by on to eat in a week....lol!
Market Monday Morning - but it's P'ing down :(

Yesterday I found a nest with 5 eggs in it - beautifully constructed in my straw gardening hat, hanging up in the porch!! Haven't seen the birds yet, so I don't know what kind they are - but the eggs are really tiny and I'm too scared to have another look in case I disturb them.

Interesting plants in your garden. I'm pleased you took a break from your chores, to enjoy them, and share them with us :o)

23 Apr, 2012

Oooh wonder what kind of birds they are! Imagine them nesting in your hat! LOL! aw
