Dry for tomorrow and wet on Wednesday ... so says the weather person!

Well I hope its heavy rain for you, it must be so difficult keeping everything healthy and growing. Sunshine today here but showers tomorrow, I was hoping to get my baskets planted up before the rain comes, so if it arrives I will send it to you;0)

Send it First Class please, Pp! I'm having to water the four half-baskets on the front wall daily, South facing front garden, plus two on the back wall as I don't want them to wilt. Cooler today though.

Well we have had intermitten showers today some quite heavy, I have been dodging in and out trying to plant my hanging baskets, it just wont go away!! Hope your plants dont suffer too much and hope this rain reaches you soon;0)

It's now 6pm ... no rain today but a blustery wind off the sea. Managed to have a couple of hours in the garden ... by myself ... and got things trimmed & planted & dead headed & potted etc. etc. Very enjoyable too! I'll be watering again after we've eaten. Sorry to hear you have had some heavy showers ... sunshine perhaps for you tomorrow? : o ))

Pleased you enjoyed your spell in the garden Shirley , you do sound as though you have been very busy, but sorry the rains not arrived yet, showers forecast for us tomorrow but we are out for lunch so the weather will not bother us;0))

Ooh, the letter 'y' is missing from your name and your avatar is a question mark . . .

Shirley a few months ago I couldnt log on and tried joining again I must have mis spelt my name missing out the y and a new account was made which I can't delete, Im having problems tonight as you can see the wrong account keeps turning up and have just spent 30mins trying to get my bonafide one back , driving me mad!!!

Ooh, that sounds complicated, Pp! I find this site really slow tonight, I've been uploading photos, had to crop many and was going to post a blog but it's 10.10 now and I'm too tired to concentrate that much!
