Thank you Cilla
I want to go again today and shake some Teasels as Allan suggested. I hadn’t realised that they were biennial either, so that explains why the ones in the fields are there in full force. and […] -

gertie 2 seconds ago Good morning Allan … it looks as though the Gold finches are eating sunflower seed kernels, … are these Teasel seeds? In GG ours eat mainly the Niger seeds. I hung up a second feeder next to the big one, and they now have more room to flock and squabble -

It’s been a reasonable day weather-wise in CP. Did a bit of gardening instead of a walk today. Tied up a currant vine that was wandering along by the garden shed, watered and admired the lovely roses …also taking off the bl**&y’ black-spotted leaves that just won’t go away
We still have beans on the second plant and now the…[Read more]-
Just ignore the black spot leaves Anne and concentrate on the blooms

Yes, I agree Cilla, I could worry myself silly over the spots but it makes no change
The blooms now, well they are coming out again in full force and they are glorious

Sorry to hear about the knee honey, hope it has eased a bit now? No worries re the blog, all sorted and it only took a few seconds.
frankly Karen, you amaze me
… so wish I had your expertise … thank you 
Sorry to read about your knee, Anne – especially as I have just goggled in amazement at several rather glamorous women over 70 years hauling car tyres among sand dunes, in preparation for a polar expedition. Don’t think either of us will be volunteering – and I hope you manage to dose off for a bit more Zzzzz.
Take care of that knee Anne. I do exercises for mine when it plays up.
I was told that I should walk as I always used to Cilla, [ I love walking] but a tiny bit of me worries that I might get another internal bleed, and it was so excruciatingly painful the last time that the thought of more damage bothers me I must admit
oh well, we shall see … I have now discarded all the crutches and walking sticks … can…[Read more]
I am not doing good deeds, Anne – I am doing it for myself to keep boredom at bay.
… and what a good way to do so Sheila
