Fascinating David. Between Mr & Mrs they had the kitchen and garden sewn up didn't they ? But I must admit, I'm wondering about the hot beds and Grenville ??!! ;~O)))

Another interesting blog with extracts from your diary.
I wish I'd known about the dog's hair earlier, now it's too late as our 5 little doggies have gone to the "Doggy heaven in the sky" as Elvis Priestly once sung. (I have the song on my computer & it, quite literally, brings tears to my eyes - & I'm not one for being emotional! We could have used the copious amounts of hair they shed.
I have had a couple of cone shaped hanging baskets on my balcony for years now & in the spring it's quite common to see the birds pulling out threads of the coconut fibre lining! They used to do the same with the other 5 round baskets, they all had coconut fibre liners till I changed them this year before filling them with Fuchsias. No, I didn't change them to stop the birds pulling out the fibre, I changed them because they were all breaking up & I couldn't use them another year.

Lovely, interesting blog once again, David! I've tried on the odd occasion to keep a diary but soon tire of making entries. Having said that I keep a sort of weather diary on the BeyondSpace forum where I'm one of the Admins. I've written a page of the weather where I live for the last 3 years & it makes interesting reading to look back on.:-)
Looking forward to reading more entries rescued from your diary.

Lol :)
It's no bad thing to go "colour mad" David....sometimes a touch of colour on a hard surface, such as a fence, trellis or shed...can be just what a garden needs, especially if the colour can be linked to surrounding planting.
