Does it really matter....life's too short. 😁🥰

No I'd never had a year without any before. It seemed really strange (nice not having to rake up piles of them tho 😄). It will probably go the other way this year and there'll be thousands. Oh well, take care.

Oh gosh have you? I have only seen an odd one this year so far. So there will be lots to come then?

Lovely photo! 😊🌻👌💙🧡

Me too! 😊👌

I love the mahogany glow of this tree and matching cormorant

Lovely photos! Thank you for those. And the flowers too. 😀👌🌸

Our team had a wonderful visit to the newly re-opened Frindsbury Circus Gardens. These gardens are one of the oldest parks in the City of London, but have been closed for the last 10 years for the construction of the new Elizabeth Line.

Ha, ha. All year round comfort food! 🥰

I'm expecting lots to drop in my garden, as I didn't have any last year - it was very strange. Yes some years there's a glut and other years not. Like on fruit trees.

We had a light shower overnight!
Yay, that's better than nothing! 👍😀

Mmm that looks good! I might have to make one very soon now you've tempted me. 😁👌

Thanku Pat, thats kind. I bet your pots are pretty & give you lots of pleasure. It's good to watch things grow. I would've always liked a big garden with a greenhouse & veg plot, but it never happened- and I wouldn't have been able to look after it in the last 5yrs anyway. 😁 Take care. 🌸🌼

Aw thanks Gill, very kind. I try and sit in it but then always see things to do. 😄 But then that's the joy of gardening isn't it? Take care. 🥰

Thanku Mike that's very kind. I haven't been able to do much for the last 5yrs ie splitting plants, moving them, planting more, cos of long covid - but I'm picking up a bit and have managed to do some tidying. (Someone cuts the grass for me) You like to potter too then? 😁 You can't beat it can you?🌸

My little garden, where I like to potter. 😁☕️
I hope we get a shower of rain sometime. The plants would really enjoy that. But some flowers are still hanging on. I hope you have a good rest of the week. 🌸🌻🐝🦋🌼

Message from the RSPCA ☀️

Yrs it is. Thank you. 🥰🌸🌻

A sunflower with a heart! What a lovely find! 😀🌻🧡 Thank you Venetia, that's brightened a soggy day! 🥰 I hope you have a good one!

🚨 Trump admitted on Air Force One that Epstein used Mar-a-Lago’s spa to “take” young girls—including Virginia Giuffre, who died by suicide this April.

He knew.
He let it happen.
He bragged about it.

This man belongs in a courtroom—not in the White House.

Yes that's the one. Thank you. Roses often change colour don't they? It's certainly a pretty one. (Not that I've any room in my garden 😏) Have a lovely weekend!

🤣 Yay lovely! A happy pooch. 🐾 A beach walk looks great. Enjoy your day! 😊👌

Thank you Debbie, you too! 🥰🌸

🤣 Poor dog. So 2hrs later....did you? 🤣

Ooh that's a lovely unusual one! 😀 I like Sanguisorba. 👌 I hope your garden's smiling after the rain.
Enjoy yr day in the garden.

Looking lovely! Could I ask the name of bottom right please?
It's been really fabulous having so much sunshine this year hasn't it? We just need showers at night for the garden. 😁 🌸🌞💧👌

🤞 for you! We've had some here and the garden was desperate. Have a good weekend. 😊🌸☔️💧

The colour of the sky really does set off the garden! 😁 I hope you get some rain soon. 🤞🌸😊
