Hi Sandra...
You are famous...
...and strong... to dig that huge trench ! :o)

Gosh, Tt - you are going to be "logged" on for ages, now!!! Will remember all those new pages, and see what I can "send" you. :-))

Hi, Sandra. Many congrats on becoming featured in person, lol! Certainly, I have all your delicious tomatoes on the "Tomatoes" page. Will you be growing a lot again this year? :-))

Thanks David...
Jacque's home-made labels are good, aren't they !

... and Hywel told me he's thinking of making a mosaic some time.
That should be lovely because he is so good at art/pottery etc. :o)

lots of new pages for you TT......... give us all something to thin k about while we sit out the snow invasion............

Hi Holly... Keep warm...
Yes, please... not many pics on Crazy Paving yet...
nor on Plant Labels...
all suggestions welcome, please. :o)

Yes, Tt, I think that Jacque's labels are brilliant - also her home-made pots!
I would really like to see a mosaic by Hywel, too. Bet it will be stunning! :-))

thanx Terra will keep an eye out, love louis`s new spade very jazzy :o)) lots of new things to see and helpfull ideas like jacque`s labels

Hi Sandra...
Yes, please.
The mosaics are fascinating aren't they.
Maybe if Hywel makes a mosaic next year, if we ask him nicely, he'll write a blog to show us all how to do it ! Lol. ... :o)

yes i like them to, i saw someone make a table on tv once seems quite simple as long as you are patient with it, might have a go myself in summer ;o)

All very beautiful pictures! It gives me a new New Years resolution for 2010...take more pictures in the garden!! lol

Hi Lisa..
That sounds like a really good New Years resolution. :o)
Have you ever made mosaics ?

yes lisa i just looked and saw your plant shopping trip then didnt get to see them planted :o(( so more pics in summer plez

Some great, and useful, categories there TT. :o)

Thanks Pottygardener...
The category "logs" seems to cover various aspects....
.. an interesting page to compile :o)

This is jogging our memories and giving us more ideas TT ... .. I like the Mosaics !

Hi Amy... Maybe when Panther is next on GoY, she'll give us some advice on making mosaics... her mosaics are lovely :o)

That would be nice TT .. we saw a lovely one last year in a Roman Villa near Cirencester ......

Is the Roman mosaic on your pics please Amy ?

You have some great new categories there TT. I like mosaics. I think I'd like one in my garden. I know where I would put it aswell

David we have the seed catalauges out now choosing which to plant this year....the tomatoes were a great success last year..

I don't think so TT ..I have a nice Mosaic taken in France but I thought these had to be your own work in your garden !

Hi Amy... all mosaics welcome...
... Roman, French, Norfolk. :o)
A few non-garden mosaics might inspire us with ideas and designs to make our own..Lol.

I love those plant label pebbles - great idea!

Hi Wagger..
Yes, good design by Helofadigger...
I guess you have snow, as opposed to the above flooding pic ?

making notes for my out-and-about days... I do like the category "Labels" so I'm be "borrowing" Jacque's idea soon. I'll let you know what I find.

Thanks, Hmhb...
I hope you find some pics over the coming year :o)

There was some smashing examples there Terra, especially the spade! :o)

Sandra x

O.K TT I will find it and put it on under my pictures . :o)

Hi Sandra, looking forward to see which tom varieties you go for this year. :-))

Hi, Tt, there are 2 plant mosaic pics on page 18 of my pic gallery, of municpal wall mosaics around the corner from Columbia Rd flower market, London, if you want to include them. :-))

Thanks David and Amy for the mosaic pics..
I'll follow up on those.

Hi Sandra....
There has been so much discussion about mosaics on this thread that I've put this blog on GoYpedia Mosaics.. :o)

Some fascinating categories here TT.All can say is that when all this snow finally starts to melt in our garden,we may be able to contribute to your "Flood Damage " Group !! Or Lakes ? Lol

Great Ideas TT Thanks could have contributed to the flood yesterday with my burst pipe!!

TT~no, I've never made a mosaic of any sort, not that talented! My mother makes quilts, but I didn't get any artist vibes from her to transfer to the garden! lol. San~ You would have loved our plant shopping trip! It was a blast! I promise to take more pictures this year, as most of the tiny plants I put in last year should be a lot bigger and meld in better I think. Mine is a very new garden and still thinking of ways on "filling it up". As you know, a garden is never finished! lol

Oh, TT~~ I haven't a picture, but a friend told me about some "garden tips" last fall which included making PLANT LABELS out of cut up plastic window blinds. Can be used out in the garden with waterproof and permanant marker, also inside greenhouse for pot labeling.

What a lot of fascinating new categories, love them all! especially the Mosaics and pebble plant labels, also after seeing the beautiful balconies its got me yearning! your going to be busier than ever Terra.

I shall look out for you Terratoonie. on my rounds : O )

Well done, Tt! marvellous pics on the "Mosaics" page! :-)) Will keep looking for you, and for other pages. Goodnight to you all!!! XXX

Hi Terratoonie David has just done blog with little metal man with watering can went to place on pedia for watering cans no pedia in list when voting so thought I would let you know to catch him quick lol for your pedia. Heard last night we are in for big freeze for another 10 days .

Thanks, Two-and-a-half-new-pence..:o)
Watering Cans category is in the second GoYpedia list near the end...
...not in the ideas list above those...
I hope that helps.?

Hi David, Pansypotter, ... I'm pleased you like the new GoYpedia categories. xxx

Hello Sueb and BB...
Burst pipes ? Big thaw ?
Looks like you might have some new pics for the Flood Damage page :o(

Hi Lisa.... Maybe we'll all have a try at mosaics next year and can compare results...
... even if we aren't very artistic ! Lol.
I like your suggestion for the plant labels. :o)

No still can't find watering cans on goypedia 2nd one either.

Gosh TT, looking at that photo of my balcony made me sigh with nostalgia, remembering the valley down below, especially as the entralling view from my balcony in Rome is a flippin' white wall of the flats opposite (there's a photo of it somewhere) ..... Roll on the summer ....

Over a foot, Terra. A least the sun is out today, it's beautiful but so cold it's not thawing at all! Oh well, put another block of wood on. Misty wraps herself around the woodburner until she's so hot she has to move away.

Hi Terry60 ~
Amazing pic of your balcony....
Are you recommending your Rome balcony for GoYpedia "Balconies" ?
Do you have any good mosaic photos from Rome ?

Hello Wagger...
Misty has the best place. :o)
Don't burn all the logs or there will be none left for GoYpedia Logs category.LOL.

Would someone please check if they can find Watering Cans on the GoYpedia list ? I can find it, but Sixpence can't ! Thanks.

Just put some log pics on for you Terra. Watering cans is on GOYpedia pages.

Thanks, Wagger :o)

Hi TT, I have a new watering can for you to add. I'll put it on my photos.

Thank you, Weeds.
That's a jumbo watering can :o)

Hi will put on some watering can pics for you, love your new choice, you are doing a grand job there TT.

Hi DD2...
Thanks.. I'm finding these new categories very fascinating...
I'll look out for your watering cans.
In the summer, maybe some of us will try making mosaics ! :o)

I'll let him do the washing up a few times - that will provide the bits for a mosaic or two, lol.

Lol. Wagger...
..washing-up mosaics.... ?
...could be a whole new cottage industry :o)

TT added my indoor can.......

Thanks DD2...
I'll go hunt for it :o)
