The charity we support has closed its doors until July. I don't know what they have put in place for the people they look after.

@Victoria your home sounds lovely and some day I will visit the region. I believe my girlfriends and I might do a group visit in the next few years. Don't worry, we will be gentle with our partying and not trash the place. I agree, happiness is what gives you comfort. That said @ARMANDII is...

I've always kept appointments for screenings. I've had the cervical scan, the mammogram and the bowl screening, all was normal. The mammogram was a bit painful but I'd rather have it done,but have to keep a check myself as they tell you.We have private dental insurance called dentaplan, it...

With more than 8 stables within 5 miles of me, I have enough Horse manure, (and Horse Shoes), thank you, ShineyDon't do the Lottery, Cuttings, as I have more chance of being in the Observatory and seeing a UFO flying by. Dog hairs I collect on my trousers when I visit my sister and her dog...

@Mike Allen i hadn't noticed that you had left, sometimes people don't post for a while, but glad that you stayed.

"Call me Harry" he said...No pal, I call you stupid. He has been led by a part of his anatomy on this one (hint, it isn't his nose!) and the thing that actually grates on me more than anything is the fact that The Queen and Prince Philip are in their final few years. Fair enough, he may...

Pete. No worries. Although David Attenborough and I so often disagree. Taking his theory of evolution to the extreme. Who knows. We may all wake up in the morning and discover we have evolved a rocket up our whats-its. So freedom to fly and land for everyone. Who needs a new runway.

On the subject of seeds. I recently came across a couple of pods of Lilium Regale in the GH. Must be about six years old. So I will sow them and see what happens. Also quite a number of years ago, I aquired a pod of seeds from a clump of flags. The seeds grew and eventually flowered, but...
