sorry forgot to say Hi to everyone ~~~~~~~~~

Yes Rose and my plums seem to be very purple this year

theres always the old fallback











plum wine and plum gin lol

Must be a good year for them, someone else told me they have plums in excess and only so many things you can do with them lol.

Fi aka Ru, you should have said I could have sent you half a ton of them

I've just eaten a plum - it came from the Sainsbury tree though!

Rose, I can't walk down the garden without slipping and sliding 20ft on my plums. lol

Do you not like plums to eat then Welshy ? mindyou there is an apple tree here and just too many apples for 2 to eat , you are too busy working so just keep the grass down occasionally and leave it 'natural' lol

Sorry Uzzi, I missed your post when I first read the posts

Uzzi, the Hamlet tune sounds quite surreal, if your dad would have laughed then that's OK, I think I might have had a little chuckle if it was played at my dad's cremation cos he would have found it funny too

as said I deleted because my post came up twice

It's quite big RR, it was a lovely garden when I moved here but with 3 welshies and a full time job it went back to it's natural state of wild meadow.
I chopped a plum tree down but 10 more appeared all over the garden. so I'll have to get the axe out soon

Do you have a large garden Welshy? bit far to come to help you but lots of people on here , including me, happy to advise if we can ... I can't take credit for this garden as only been here a couple of months, and it has been loved for 50 years :))
But i do like gardening :))

I deleted as my pc posted twice

H.E of D, I'm sorry to here that, My Way was a good song for pa, it was very emotional

Buttered Bun, that's the nicest thing anyone has said to me on here.

Rose, you can come and do my garden if you want to, I haven't got a clue.

Welshy I will say I am sorry for your fathers funeral I know how much I miss my dad

My song for dads is the hamlet theme tune ....a mistake maybe but never-the-less played as his coffin trundled along the rollers to the fire ! dad would have laughed

That would be very nice, Welshy, if you stayed:-) Buttercrest XX

lol BC, it was a 'knife edge ' decision at the end....20 minutes before deadline I renewed.

I had switched my membership from 'continuous' to 'single' a couple of days previously, ...but in the end what won me over ( aside from all the lovely people of course! ) , was the amount of enjoyment I get from doing look ups for others, and while I still have Ancestry seemed a shame not to make use of it :))

Rose xx

*gasp...I didn't think you were thinking of leaving Rose?? But am also glad you are staying and sorry to hear about your Dad's funeral Welshy. Butterflop XX

Hi Welshy, all..., sorry I went out to garden and still there several hours later lol, didn't realise there was quite so much cutting back to be done. The buddliea has finished flowering more or less so did that, and the laurel hedge , looks a bit tidier for autumn . That's the front garden so will get round the back soon, needed a break :))

Rose xx
