Thanks everyone - it is a beautiful wee wood to walk round, especially on days like this or in the snow. The dogs love it though I can't remember which one's in the background of the picture.

It comes from the film the Wizard of Oz starring Judy Garland, Dorothy had a dog called Toto, and when she woke up after the tornado in the land of Oz, she said "I don't think we're in Kansas anymore Toto!" Never seen it??

On the plus side a it's amazing how a cuppa can help inspire good ideas that make you wonder why you've not thought of it before. I'm hopeless at plant names, not much better at knowing how to look after all individual plants either, I do enjoy creativity though, aided with a cuppa.

Thanks everyone - it really is a lovely spot. Of our 2 dogs, Buddy loves to swim in it (when not frosty of course), but his sister Holly is not keen on water.

She's always trying to catch bees & wasps....... infact even anything that crawls. She's very quick & can snap them in 2 with one bite. Has been stung a few times of course & her muzzle swells up a bit, although luckily she's never taken a bad reaction. Vets advise is to give her a wee bit of antihistemine & it quickly works.

It's our critical and perfectionist minds and eyes Heron !
It must be because we all seem to be agreeing with you and admitting it ourselves !!!!
A non gardener would probably just see the good bits ;-)

I know that feeling well Heron.

Hi Louise1 and Uma, these two are five years young, Missy is lazy and fat and likes to cuddle and Minxie is still like a kitten wanting to play all the time. Her favourite trick is to run and fetch, so you have to spend hours throwing stuff for her to bring back to you! (A case of dogenvy perhaps)?!

That's ok Brenda, for a while I thought you might have found my inane attempt at humour a little irritating ? :0))

This year is the first time it has had these flower (?) things on the top of it. Hoping that it gets to be a large plant.

Hi Tin How did you get this plant to survive. I was given 2 poinsettia's for christmas last year and they did not survive. I kept them indoors, is this wrong. Please let me know as I love this flower. I am from South Africa originally and this plant thrives there, it reminds me of home. Thanks Notty

Gillian, amazing! Is it a stone? Am I right?

I agree Mg, it means they become part of a/our community .... which is what we must 'all' have liked or we wouldn't have joined up ourselves.
Maybe people who stay as a guest just aren't people who want to 'mix', or should i say 'mingle' ;-)))
That's what we are ...... minglers !!!

Hi David............. 1899 paint ???
Victorian Violet....???
....Does what it says on the tin...???
Went on your pennyfarthing bicycle to collect it from your local store...?
Each time you fully opened the shed door, did that Victorian gentleman smash his nose on the shed ?
But with that purple colour...

good morning Nosey' I liked you befor, but now I have a new respect for you, I just wish sometimes that I could make people look through the eyes of people like you, and please don't bother about your spelling '' the contents is more value than the box it came in, a teacher once said that to me I was lucky I understood, and have followed his example ever since to bring out the best in people.

Mine sits on a coffee table, gets ignored for weeks on end, does get sun and, so far as I can see, is perfectly happy. Fortunately it can read the plant books :-)
On question - Can anyone identify this mystery...
Any 'hacker' would be able to send umpteen questions as a 'Guest' simply by changing their i.d., at least that is what I understand. I still would like folk to have to join before they ask questions personally.

Couldn't the manufacturers make magnetic 'belts' or something....sort of attach the individual magnets to a strip of some stretchy fabric, so people could just pull them over a back, a knee, an elbow, an ankle, like they do with elastic support bandages and sports supports? Surely that would make applying them a whole lot easier - though it'd make them more expensive...

Thankyou :-)
