      Yes, that's me! I had a look to see if a few old friends were still around, but no Lady of Leisure, and looks like no more Paladin either.... he wasn't well....

      Hi Dendrobium, nice to "see you" (having said that I have never seen you in the first place:biggrin:). You are up north if I remember right...

        Absolutely, yes! I'm not gardening professionally any more (leaving that to one of my sons), but spend most of my time walking the current dogs and working at the allotment, so that's the area I'll be posting in most, I expect (although I did notice the ID question about eucryphia...)

          We're you called Mira Flores then? Maybe it was a Michaelmas Daisy?Yes, the only person I actually met was DaveW, and another girl from up my way, when we all visited Branklyn gardens in Perth. I guess Nick (paladin) is irretrievably gone, since he seems to have posted last in 2015?)
