Due to my move to Dorset soon, my plot, sadly has to go and I have already given written notice to the council, that it will be available from June 7th.

As you can imagine this has been very hard for all of us in our family to come to terms with especially as, at the time of writing this, his funeral is yet to take place. Sunday, 8 August 2010.

Teddy Bear Sunflower These Teddy Bear sunflowers have done really well this year. We have already taken at least four cuttings from the 4 or 5 plants we have. It seems the more you pick, the more flower heads follow on. They work well mixed with one or two other varieties of sunflower. Mayflies on the River Thames.

So the blogging is back but. Which decided it wanted to bee seen as a new pos. was on Saturday for us. Any excuse to light the chiminea makes me happy. It looked good with all the candles.
