You girls get all the perks including going purple

When I am an old woman I shall wear purple
With a red hat which doesn't go and doesn't suit me.

That is lovely.

But but but, surely.......it's off topic. One of your major bugbears, as we
see above.

I shall go out in my slippers in the rain
and pick the *flowers *in other people's gardens
and learn to spit.

There is a red hat, purple dress group here on the Costa Blanca.
Consists of a group of ladies of 'a certain age' who meet regularly and
wear the 'uniform'. No sure what they do, but they had their photo in a
local free newpaper

I think you will find they are a country wide organisation who meet on a
social basis, but fund raise for such as a hospice. Yes the red hat is their
uniform :-))

Hee hee. They sound a bit like some of Beryl Cook's ladies. I could
think of a couple of 'ladies' here who would suit but I don't think
they'd be very welcome. Have you done much gardening yet, Mike? We
haven't seen you much recently on ukfd.

Royal Handmaiden Society
They are young women who follow Queen (and later Senator) Amidala of Naboo
everywhere she goes to assist and protect her. They were chosen by the
Queen herself upon her election for their courage, intelligence, fitness
and resemblance to her.

Just about to get really going, just had a 'greenhouse' built. It's
about half my upper terrace, aluminium and glass, polycarbonate roof
and double glazed. Got the seeds ready and hoping to get my tomatoes
etc planted before Christmas.
