I've just registered with a large garden supplies website and when I went to log on this message came up..

Is it anything to worry about? I don't shop on the internet very often, I'm a bit paranoid. :)

shaney I call my garden a wildlife haven....it explains the mess! Actually when the tree man from the council visited about giving me permission to remove trees, he was quite impressed by my mess, he saw a stag beetle which are uncommon in gardens and loved my (deliberate) piles of rotting wood and my plan to leave a long stump of one removed tree.

Good morning all from a wet and stormy Ibiza. Wont be doing much today.
Poor Mr S I do hope he is bucking up a bit.
Our garden is a jungle, but water is too expensive and valuable to use unnecessarily. We have lots of rare species I have no doubt.
Hope you all have a good day.

Morning all...what happened? Did I sleep in 'til April? It's bright, sunny, clear blue sky and no lamp needed to find my way to the scullery. I did sleep a bit better last night, must have been the fresh air.

Jude I don't do anything special in the garden...the biggest, most tedious/tiring job is clearing the cherry tree leaves up off the grass. Leaving them just creates a soggy black blanket and even more bare patches than there already are. I don't get every last leaf, the worms will take some of them down. You can cut down your perennials if you want, I leave some of mine, they look nice if we get a sparkly frost. Mostly nowadays tho' they go black and floppy in these mild wet winters. Like woofy my garden's organised chaos, logs and nettles and hidey holes for wildlife. I haven't seen a stag beetle for years but I find newts curled up under things :)
Birds are busy in the sunshine today!
The bad news is my golden choisya's looking sick, some of it's dying.

Best wishes to Mr S, hope he's up and about soon shaney.

Well most of Robi's post may as well be in tongue, I haven't a clue!

[Robinia]

Unlikely I suppose but just in case he's looking in...Happy Birthday Vinny! x

Morning all from foggy Norfolk.
Wildlife haven ,I like that .That's my new phrase for the garden .Either that or Jacs Jungle .People can come round and go on a safari :)
Hope you're all ok today .
Yes, Happy Birthday Vinny, if you're looking in.

[netibiza]

Happy birthday Vinnie x

[woofgang]

good morning, its grey and chilly here but ok. Yes happy birthday to Vinny and a wave to Lottie as well. Not sure what today holds, was thinking of going to town but decided that tomorrow wlll be better as no school kids. Am making soup in the slow cooker (chicken and bacon with sweet potato).

[shaneystar2]

Snap Woofy .Chicken soup for us too .Jewish penicillin stylee for man flu :)
I've got stock from very virtuously boiling up a carcass .

[jno]

thank you, Jude, I've suddenly realised I'll have to do cards soon too, as it's December tomorrow. Friends abroad all get the same thing, a calendar made up of photos I've taken during the year, but I'll have to do that tonight as the half-price offer finishes tomorrow.

I'd prefer not to have wildlife here, the secutrity light went on last night and I looked out to see if burglars were about when a fox suddenly leapt out of the shrubbery and chased a rat across the lawn :-( Don't dare leave the back door ajar these days.

[woofgang]

its one of the advantages of having psycho dogs, we don't get foxes or rats or cats. Hedgehogs, snakes and mice seem unbothered by them, and the bird population seem to look on them as a source of nesting material judging by the old nests that i find.
Today i have just partially rehung a door. i shut the dogs in the living room to get the papers out of the box as usual and when i opened it, it collapsed against me. Further inspection revealed that there had been onlyne screw in the top hinge instead of three and that one had finally succumbed to the struggle. me and my trysty screwdriver leaped into action and all is safe again. This house has got a habit of dumping doors on me, before we had the kitchen done, a kitchen cupboard door did it, then about a year later, the glass shower door did the same thing. i wonder if the house is getting fed up with me?

[woofgang]

oh and the squirrels laugh and pull faces

[netibiza]

Been pouring here all day. We went to san rafel for lunch.
we get rats mice even snakes now as they hide in the imported trees, but no foxes.
would love some of woofy's soup. Have a slight wine headache.

[netibiza]

And this tablet is playing up, makes all computers now !

[woofgang]

soup isn't finished yet Neti, i made the base today. will strain it and add the veg tomorrow. Added more decorations today and started to make my cards, starting to look twinkly here.

[netibiza]

Good morning. It rained so hard in the night, the noise was incredible. Woke us up and I was buying sandals in Thailand at the time.
No leaks that I can see so far, although on the local fb page people are asking for roof menders Hope Mr S is recovering.

[Jude123]

Good morning all. Still in bed. Too dark to get up yet. Soup sounds lovely Woofy. The only soup I make us tomato. Nothing elaborate. Skin them and bung em in a pan with herbs etc...
Jno this is the earliest I've done my cards for years. Still have to write a few but getting there.
Off to visit my elderly Aunt and Uncle today. Going later on through town so I can have a look at the lights. I'll never grow up will I. ;-)
Hope Mr S us now on the mend Shaney and that all of you a feeling ok. I've just about got used to my left leg 'jip' and accept old age is catching up on me.
On that note I'm getting up now. Laters gaters.

[Robinia]

Morning all...'tis a dark one Jude, you're right there.

I think I need some Jewish penicillin, I feel no-how, looby-loo arms and legs. I'm hanging by a thread...bit like my dodgy kitchen cupboard door.

[jno]

woken up by an aching hip, I must have tweaked a nerve in my sleep or something, but at least it got me up and putting together a calendar, so that's done and ordered in great numbers.

It's probably because I went out for a walk yesterday, in order to see how my toe was healing. That'll teach me to get exercise.

[netibiza]

Oh and I feel so well.
