          Aloha everyone,

          It's going to be a lovely day today :SUNsmile:

          I'd probably get slapped if I bought flowers for Mrs Shiney (standing instructions not to buy them :noidea:) as she always has flowers around for all the flower arranging she does. She was very pleased yesterday to hear from the bride that some arrangements she had made for her wedding two and a half weeks ago are still looking good. :dbgrtmb:

          Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

          Aloha!

            Good Morning everyone, Happy Valentines Day. I trust you are all well, had to go into the doctors recently for a diabetics check over and guess what I picked a cold up from there and now I am suffering. Should have stayed at home! Well have a good day everyone it should be nice and sunny hopefully. Stay safe and well, God bless.:wub2:

                Good morning,

                We had a frosty start but the sun is trying to burn through the fog.

                Philip pheasant has just turned up for breakfast he turns up every morning at 8.30 just as I give the hens their Dr Greens mixed seed treats. We also had Mr Sparrowhawk turnup yesterday :yikes: he is not welcome in my garden, I chased him away! I’ve not seen him this morning. (I know he has to eat too).

                No Valentine’s Day cards etc here...we haven’t done that for years, we’ve decided to have a treat for dinner.....egg & chips :dbgrtmb: one of the most yummy dinners you can have but not one we have often! My hens have just come back into lay after their annual moult, so I will have two of their eggs ;) with my chips.

                The bird song this morning is wonderful here, I could listen to it all day, but I’d better be on my way.

                I hope you all have a great day.

                Big hugs to you all xx :grphg:

                  Afternoon everyone , we have been out in town since 7:30 this morning so I am a tad late today!!

                  After an early appointment we wandered around town ,it's like a summers day down here. The outside cafes were overflowing and the view over S'oton Waters was calm and beautiful. We enjoyed a lovely lunch before before heading home.
                  The only downside is that my back is well and truly playing up and causing me a lot of pain today......it better start behaving as we have planned to go to the Vyne tomorrow and have a picnic beside the lake. It's so gorgeous ...:fingers crossed:

                  The Vyne

                  Have a lovely afternoon :)

                      Good morning Wiseowl and all my friends :spinning:

                      It’s a lovely clear blue frosty morning today, and I’ve got a day off! Yey!

                      Garden needs a good tidy old sweet peas to be cleared and other bits.

                      Have a lovely day everyone

                        Aloha everyone,

                        An extremely frosty morning but promises to be a lovely sunny one. We shall probably go off snowdrop hunting to Anglesey Abbey
                        Beautiful snowdrops at Anglesey Abbey

                        They have a brilliant winter garden designed and built by their former head gardener Richard Ayres MBE. They say on that link above that he may be there to chat to people. I'll have to check. We have some plants in our garden that he dug up for us from his own garden in the village next to Anglesey Abbey.

                        They do guided tours of the garden. :dbgrtmb:


                        For me it's more important to avoid any bending instructions :heehee:

                        Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

                        Aloha!
