Fluff's Outbox

Sorry it cost you that much Mobee...have seen them much cheaper...hope it works for you. Mum had one looking in the living room window at her this week...checking out whether it was safe to come in for the winter I suspect!!

Good blog joanella...what a variety of produce you ate!
Milk, & it's by-products, is one of our biggest embarrassments I think...cheddar cheese from Latvia...imported milk from Roumania for cheese-making over here...& yet our dairy farms are virtually all gone.

There was a thing on the TV about a man logging lorries passing one another on our motorways carrying the same product from one end of the country to the other when they could just distribute them where they started from!!

Madness.

Welcome to you Chris in Wales...lovely to have such a variety of folk on Goy.

Sorry to see your damage Carol...wretched weather. We have to be thankful for small mercies...it wasn't a tsunami or a hurricane...but damaging to us none the less.

I clicked on like this blog Sandra because of your lovely story & steadfast, loyal & heartfelt love for your Jake at such a difficult time for you.
You will give him the very best for as long as you can...big hug.xxxx

Do you think he's listening??! :o)))))

Hmmmm.don't blame you Bscott...a man can make it too much like hard work eh?!!

Thanks Carol...I hope he comes back.

Thanks Amy & Lindak.x

Sorry Amble...I can't keep up with all your blogs! I will read them all at the weekend.xx

Well....there's no need to be sarky young Indy...if you don't want to give your wine away you only have to say! LOL!!
Don't even try to tell me you consider the growing of your grapes & the fermenting of your wine is a trial of such tremendous proportions...you love it!

And....It's not half a dozen letters...it's bl**dy 14!! Not that easy & extremely unlikely we'll get it exactly right.

Sue...can you not give in & settle for a pint of bitter? Where's your Brummy spirit? In the bottom of a vodka bottle if you are anything like me!!

We may beat him...we may not..but at least we can say we tried!

(I think Mair's on our side too!) ;o))))))

Aw they are so sweet N2...cardboard boxex are always a favourite! It's great they play so well together.

There's earning Indy & then there's blood.sweat & tears! :o(

When our neighbour's cat went missing for 6 weeks the local children saw her from the school bus as it went thru' the village.I then went up to that place & found her bedraggled & thin but fine. She was only about half a mile away from home but seemed disorientated maybe because we think she may have initially jumped into the back of a van at her house.
So take heart Mavis...miracles do happen & cats do turn up.
It may be worth you asking the kids on the local bus & the driver to keep an eye out?xx

Danny Boy! How could these land up on the cutting room floor???!! They are brill. Great to see Nutty again...& the bees & the robin....lovely pics. :o)

Indy...you're not being very helpful!! Is there no reference to wine? To Mair?

Do we not even get a sniff of the cork for our efforts?!!

Thanks everyone...he stayed there for ages but my camera wouldn't zoom in any more. We often hear them & see them on the trees but never at the feeder before. Well chuffed!

Whohoo! Happy hunting then!

He's so tight isn't he?! ;o)

Brilliant! What a great little flower.

I want to attract squirrels into my garden...have seen one or two but am I asking for trouble?LOL!!

It really is just like a rose...how lovely.

What a lovely garden Rachelsmum...Bernieh's right...the slabs are really different.

Pretty pink...nice to have roses out this time of year.

Acers are just so wonderful for autumn colour...& the leaf shape so delicate...lovely Hywel. Blodyn in there anywhere?!!

That's lovely Hywel...will those juicy berries get eaten by the birds?

Well I have an old kitchen sink planted up with succulents & others & they only ate the succulents so maybe they are fussy!

Ahhh compost & flies floating in my tea...I remember it well YDD!!

I think we've all done that Heron...gardening's a bit like painting the Forth Bridge! Only enjoyable!! :o)

They are horrid, devious little critters who eat from the bottom up & so you don't know what's occuring until you get the flop effect! You can't miss them in the soil. Yuk Yuk Yuk!!!

We've got some salamanders going up the wall ...they look like the real thing sometimes & make folk look again!! Ours were from an African crafts importer but I have seen them in all sorts of shops over here. Good luck with it all!!
