Reporting from Limboland. Still no news on the house, which I suppose would negate our citizenship of Limboland, but I wanted to make it quite clear. Quite clear as to the mood. Tettering. Possibly the best word. There might be other words more appropriate. Still, I am but a single grain of sand in theContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Pot Wars”

Just a Heuchera
“All I need is a heuchera” said Professor Gadget as we entered the garden centre. “Okeydokey” his faithful sidekick replied “just one heuchera it will be!” popping a little geum into the sweet mini trolley. Unfortunately, The Prof didn’t find a heuchera he liked. He did, however, find a couple of other things to fillContinue reading “Just a Heuchera”
Six on Saturday – Turn Right
Everything has conspired against me in my Six on Saturday mission this week. I have had computer tantrums, a bread knife related finger injury and a dodgy camera. Did I let that stop me? Did I, hell as like! Captain Prop didn’t get to where he is today by letting an insignificant thing like aContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Turn Right”
Green Jumpy Things
Professor Gadget (no dimwit) appears to have an abundance of green jumpy things in his garden. Last week this Incredible Hulk was lurking unabashed on Rosa ‘Wild Edric’. As I struggled, with a cursory hand wipe on my trousers, to grab my camera, he posed and preened, pleading “make sure you get my good side”.Continue reading “Green Jumpy Things”
Six on Saturday – Reverted
Right from the off, just in case it isn’t clear, this week I have reverted back to “Good Cop with a Hint of Malice”. A role that I am much better suited to. It has been a rather gloomy few days, but I have it on very good authority (OH) that after the weekend allContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Reverted”
In the Green
Is it love or is it hate? Sometimes it is hard to distinguish.
Magpie, Magpie
There are an awful lot of magpies in these parts, some might say a glut. Perhaps even more than in Cornwall. It was here that a school friend, having been pinched for the upteenth time, declared that as there were so many of these piebald plunderers superstitions didn’t count and from that moment henceforth, inContinue reading “Magpie, Magpie”
Six on Saturday – Bad Cop
Shall we cut to the chase. We have known each other long enough to be totally honest with one another. You know what comes next. I give The Prop a bit of a big up and a semi-amusing title, he totally ignores me, I waffle on a bit about stuff that no one quite understandsContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Bad Cop”
Reality
Back to reality, and as far as realities go, I can’t complain. Poppy, bowed by the rain, but as lovely as ever.
Six on Saturday – AWOL
I am not actually here. In fact at this very moment I am probably jet washing Lord and Lady Mantle’s silverware or polishing the throughbreds. Yes, we have left Welsh Wales for the weekend and are visiting the grand abode of the aforementioned dignitaries. In normal circumstances, this would make it tricky to post myContinue reading “Six on Saturday – AWOL”
