Sorry, forgot to send second lot of plants the other week, things got

in
the way. Must try and do a small parcel for you again next week when I
send Pam her Dahlia.

With all this wet weather, (which I love) it's a good job we didn't

have
the garden party after all !

Don't worry about the plants Janet as we are hoping to move house,
when we do, I will be begging you for some.


How limited is your planting because of the winter temps?

I am going to the Royal Norfolk Show on Wednesday. usually the
decision is do I wear a flimsy dress because of the heat, this year it
will be do I wear rubber boots!!

Oh lor'! Did you see the pics of Glastonbury? I'd pay the entry price

NOT

We were just south of there at "Axe vale festival of mud", staying in a
small tent! spent 3 days stood in 6" of water in wellies (did leave the dog
at home this year) Public were very cheerful. On the way home I uttered the
fatal words "there can't be much worse than that" Monday proved me wrong, I
could see the water on my lawn, which considering the garden is at 30
degrees says a lot about the speed of arrival!!!


We've been so lucky here. Yes, the steps from the car park down to the tea
room did turn into a waterfall - very pretty actually! - and yes, water was
running down the paths of the nursery. But being surrounded by farmland did
mean that most of the rain got absorbed, one way or another. I hope the
high wind doesn't return because that's always dangerous after so much rain.
