A day in the life of San!! Phew, get your feet up and admire your handy work! It's looking good. I lost all my viallii over the winter. Not going to replace, too sad! The frog is smashing! I love frogs! :)) ps I had a busy day, mowing, edging, potting on, sowing...never got outside the front door all day! Great! :))

A busy day San but very rewarding , you will go to bed tired but happy .. :o))

hi karen lol, glad you enjoyed your day to ;o))
very true amy, cheers ;o))

Lovely pics San,and nice new plants too.I have Primula Vialii too.Its gorgeous.
i thought I had lost it this year,but the little darling has appeared,but much later than usual.What a busy day you have had,so hot too...but glad you enjoyed it.:o) We went to Wetherby..and relaxed by the river,so a nice easy day for me,..for a change...lovely.:o)

Wetherby is a nice place. I was there last August on my way down to Lincs for my Sister's wedding. It's very posh, lovely stone!

Thanks San....hot today....then a thundery shower...then hot again.Saved having to water the garden ! Lol...Your pond is going from strength to strength...:o)

thanx sandra glad you like pics, bet it was a lovely day by the river, you will be all chilled out for tomoz if your gardening ;o))

cheers jane we are due rain tomoz so they tell us, ive watered garden just in case, just going to nip out to check froggy before i switch pond off ;o))

Softy..lol..:o)

lol ;o)

Busy day San but the pics look wonderful. Love the Vialli and if the green and pink foliage plant is the one in the 8th pic I think it is Houttonyia. Don't know whether I have spelled it correctly.. If it is the foliage may have a slight scent of oranges

thankyou pip i will check the scent out tomoz ;o)

love the frog san brill pic hope u feeling refreshed now lol

its houttuynia, just looked it up pip, looks similar ;o)) going to ask at nursery tomoz

lol cristina thanx and yes had my soak and feel alot better ;o))

I think you were brilliant to look after two little ones that age, Sandra. I'd be flattened if it was me!

If that's a Houttuynia, be careful where you plant it - it can be a thug - a pretty one, but still a thug!

thanx barbara i had forgotten how hard two young ones were lol, just read up on plant and noticed that barbara, so will have to think carefully if it is that ;o))

Sounds like you've had as busy day as I have girl!
Like the comment about getting some plants without Baz knowing!
Would he not ne happy or do that rolling the eys thing again? pmsl
I've just done a blog on my day aswell

lol steve, he said before, there is a plant ive not seen before,,, i said really,,, wheres that then lol, he knew ;o))
will check it out before i go steve, ;o)

lmao. See he does take notice!!

LOL....

;o))) lol

Really enjoyed your day San......crikey, you were flat out and it's been so hot......we had a full on day, Ian installed a new door.....I planted all my fuchsias then weeded and watered, as you do, but just the two of us, all day, it was smashing...:o)

It's nice to be busy Sandra :o) I 'm glad you're enjoying the weather. I hope it lasts for ever lol

What a busy day San, hope you've recovered enough to enjoy your day at the classic car show today. It's raining here, but maybe you'll be having better weather on the coast.

We've now had our forecast changed here in Essex to rain all day to NO rain just white cloud and 19°C. Mind you had hell of a thunderstorm at 2am this morning. Fingers crossed you get no rain or not to much for the show today Sandra!

Hope you have recovered from such a hectic day. I love having my grand children coming. The two youngest live in Edinborough and i love it when they come down to stay but my... i get shattered by the end of day one. Only gardening job i can do while they are here is water the garden with the help of the 4 year old. Think she will take to gardening too. She has her own watering can here, All other garden jobs have to be put on hold until they go back. No rain here in Birmingham as yet but temperature much more comfortable. Enjoy your day at the car show San,you deserve it after yesterday.

Lovely blog and pics Sandra, isn't it lovely being outdoors at the moment, by the way, it doesn't look like houttuynia to me. why is it impossible not to buy plants lol? I'm off to Gardeners World Live At the NEC very soon, hope I can carry everything :-)

cheers janey glad you and ian enjoyed your day pottering together ;o))
thanx hywel i wish it would last forever with just rain at night when we are all tucked up in bed lol ;o))
silverbelle its raing here to so may not get to car show, i just went past where it is and not alot going on, so looks like they arent going to show, its such a shame , so looks like housework for me lol ;o)
hi steve glad you havent got rain yet, its stopping and starting here but that awfull fine stuff, have a good day ;o))
thankyou Rohima its lovely having the kids even though it tiers us out lol, i did sleep well i must say ;o))
cheers bornagain lol, i just nipped in nursery to check for plant name and came out with two more plants lol, the plant is Ipomoea which i have one called marguerite, but the new one is a varigated one which they werent sure of name, ive looked it up and may be pink frost, at least i know its family, its a trailing one and ground cover so will have to watch out cause it runs under ground so quite a thug ;o))

like your new plants sandra....your fish are pretty colours... glad they have settled in....
all looking lovely in your garden....

thankyou so much holly im just going to feed the fish now and check little froggy to ;o)))

: O ))

love the frog Sandra,We had one in our water feature who we named George but he has gone hop abouts.we really miss him.

aww maybe he will come back at some point michelle ;o)) thanx

Oh look at froggy, is he a resident in your garden? Lovely plants... I`m like you, I can`t go anywhere that sells plants without buying something. Lack of willpower? yep! :o)

lol yep sure is sandra, yes i have a male and female frog now, so pleased ;o))

Great blog San, and your new additions to the garden are looking good! :~))

cheers flori ;o)) hope your well my friend x

Am weary but well my friend~glad I could catch up with your lovely blogs, will get to your picts asap! :~))x

glad your well flori, hard work for you juggling everything with your course at moment, nice to see you even for a short visit and dont worry about catching up on pics, think its hard for most at this busy time , joe started exams today , took two and felt good about them, so im pleased ;o))

Am so pleased to hear Joe is doing ok with his exams, it's a tough time getting through these, but he sounds like he is handling it really well, San. I can't put as much time into Goy as I would like to at the moment, as cramming and writing like mad for my coursework, it will all be over by the 30th!!

thanx flori, he is off today and working at the nursery, he loves it to, not long for you to go then,, then its a good rest and relax in your garden i hope ;o)) x

I wish! Got to concentrate on my Home Study Course after this one, on Garden Design, but at least I have two years to complete it, so not quite as bad!lol! :~))x

really flori, it sound good though, design, thats one of the nice parts i would say, im sure you will do a grand job to ;o)) x

:~))x
