I’ve been looking at other blogs with envy this year, particularly Derrick J Knight and Tootlepedal’s Blog. They have a lot of things in common, including beautiful gardens, great photography and gardening partners – the Head Gardener and Mrs Tootlepedal.
It may be time for a little pep talk with Julia. Nothing major, just point her to a few relevant posts and leave an unspoken suggestion…
That way I hope to avoid being told to do it myself, as I already have lots to do. That TV won’t watch itself and blogging takes time.
Meanwhile, just to show we can grow plants (despite the state of our garden this year) here are a few things from last year at the farm.
A beautiful collection of flower photos, Quercus!
Thank you – I enjoyed looking through them all again.
Excellent gallery, Simon!
Thank you, it was good to revisit these photos. 🙂
You and your wife have a lot to be proud of with all the work you did on the farm. No-one can take those good memories away from you. Have you heard how all those lovely young people are?
We are still in touch with some of them, and one of them actually goes to the Mencap group so will be reunited with Julia. 🙂
Oh good! 🙂
A treasury indeed, Quercus. And thanks for the plug.
Thanks. And as for the plug – credit where it’s due.
Lovely pictures even if they are well matured. I can thoroughly recommend getting the services of a good gardener.
It’s a bit embarrassing as I was a gardener for about seven years between the antiques and the farm project. I should do better… 🙂
Oh, lovely!
Thanks. It’s a bit of a cheat using pictures from last year but I felt in need of cheering up. 🙂
I certainly understand. And another terrorism attack to boot. Oh, England!
Yes, it seems to be a regular thing at the moment.
So very terrible!
