and if it's thriving out on the Patio - leave it there. Just buy maybe an outer 'fancy'pot for it - so you don't hate it so much
Plants KNOW when you hate them and that's why he's doing well away from you and your distainful looks :H

But dear Molly :l

Hey. Mr S slept in spare room last night as he was out boozing watching football. I couldn't be doing with Guinness farts & snores in my delicate state.
As I said before this man is like the Duracell Bunny and up at 8 every morning.
Maybe 9 on a Sunday
It's nearly 10 and not a budge ....... should I awaken the beast? :egad:

Ah that's brilliant JC :goodjob:
They are amazing aren't they -? I wonder if we have had any influence on how they turn out ?
Or they are just go-getters despite us I sometimes think

haha 1000 miles --- lets goggle where you can get to TODAY:H


3 WHOLE WEEKS!!! jesus --- I've killed most house things way quicker than THAT!!!! I had this MAD big tall thing --- so big it was blocking the light from outside --- flowers an all -- Joe asked me one day what it was --- I hadn't a clue - but I do keep notes on what I plant --- went to investigate --- it was coriander FFFFFFSSSS!!!!

Jesus : being beside the sea Molls - you prolly can grow loads of stuff. I'm jealous.
Mr S has our little garden lovely-but you can't swing a cat in it- even if you had a cat.
I'm coming in April - to rob loads of gear ( I'm a Northsider remember )
e.g. eggs/ coriander
-love coriander

I ain't walking Molls - let him off.
When I eventually move -it will be a bit of body DIY.... shaving & the like .

Well there's stuff we can grow cos we don't get mad frosts cos of the sea -- but the salt in the sea air also means there's a lot we can't grow --- tbh -- since I went back to work -- the garden just has to look after itself --- Joe does hedges and grass, I do the pot patio at the back door --- but the rest of it -- pretty wild really -- I quite like that -- drives Joe MAD --- ah sure --- you'll see what I'm talkin bout in April!! Can't wait!!!!!!!

Maybe we can investigate between now & then and that day -go buy some chooks ? :yay:
Did we mention the Zoo since JC ??

Certainly an MWO hokey cokey today.

Thing is we never pushed the kids into 'safe' jobs like our parents. Me and Mr JC were expected to get nice white collar jobs as that what was done.

We actually wanted the kids to do something that pushed them and their abilities and something they wanted to do..........not just flog their guts out 9-5 with a fortnight in Spain once a year existence.

Funnily enough they're both chose the hospitality industry after I stopped drinking.

Now I must read back.
