Rather weedy at present. Got to get gardener back if it ever stops raining.

this is for when you have got the charger
so very sorry to have read what has happened.
Glad that you have had surgery.
Wishing you a full recovery.
We are all thinking and rooting for you!
Ron has been such a good friend to you and all of us. He has kept us informed as to what is happening.
Sending a big hug, well away from your hip!
Lots of love,

Your garden is fabulous.
Colin was my lawn mower, i am the gardening freak as he put it.
I moved some big plants from the back and put them out the front, i hope i spoke to them (the plants) long enough for them to settle into their new place. I know, talking to plants you say… am i finally going round the frigging pipe?

Plants? I talk to furniture, walls, ovens, my legs, TV. Just about everything. No one else to talk to.
Neither of us gardeners. Both born and bred cockneys. Can just about recognise a daffodil. I have brown thumbs. Even killed an air plant. I do have an orchid that has survived since Christmas that my neighbour gave me.
Hydrangeas didn’t do well this year. Pruned too late. Neighbour said she was going to do them but they were too big for her. Bit late by time I had found a gardener.

Good morning friends I have just got up, I slept well for a change. It is very windy here but no rain yet, I think the storm is moving in so I must get prepared for a power cut if it gets worse. Flasks will be filled and a hot water bottle. Lots of candles and my torch put within easy reach. I hope you all have as good a day as you can, my hand is here if needed. Love to you all.

I really advise people to get a couple of wind up torches then you are not reliant on batteries or the risk of fire with candles. You get a decent workout as well winding them up.I have about 100 tea lights. I have already given away 100. My husband the over buyer again.

We have a storm coming? This is better than the weather channel here.
I’m Nottingham, but we have always wanted to live by the sea. Whenever we went out on Colin’s motorbike, it was either Wales, Scotland, Cornwall and Devon way, fabulous places, another world. Such friendly people and everyone seemed to be smiling…we could understand why. Stunning.

I live inside the left side of the circle on the coast so am hoping the worst of the storm will pass us by. Stay safe everyone

I should be ok. My bungalow is quite sheltered at the very top of a steep hill. Water flows away from me in all directions. I think the storm is almost passed. Wind and rain less than earlier.
Seen neighbours out walking dogs. One has a golden retriever called Leo. Looked very wet. Think the dachshund Barney will end up with a very wet tummy.
Hoping rest of you stay safe with no damage.

I love it. Minions can be relied on to make you grin. Another possible Halloween costume.
