Two weeks SoSing in a row, there must be something afoot. I can’t imagine what has influenced my buoyant mood. Something must have changed. The balance of good and evil may have been addressed. Perhaps I have over-stated it, too Marvel superhero, or embarrassingly naive, the next stop Regretsville. Perhaps. It will of course dependContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Hope”

Six on Saturday – Strength in Numbers
Anyone else feeling a little horticulturally overwhelmed? Well, (hoping someone said yes) so am I. The garden has switched to hyperdrive, spilling out and over in a what was charming and now is alarming way. There is a slim chance, miniscule in fact, that I may have planted too many plants in the garden. AsContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Strength in Numbers”
Six on Saturday – Word Cloud
If you created a word cloud of my Six on Saturday blogs I am guessing that “rain”, “mizzle” and “misery” would be the dominant components and “sunshine” “gentle breezes” and “contentment” would languish in faint type in a corner. This week’s buzz words would be “torrential”, “sweltering” and “confused”. Monday I was decked out inContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Word Cloud”
Six on Saturday – Guano
Heat Wave! Well, it hasn’t rained for almost a week, which amounts to the same thing in this neck of the wood. Do not fear, rain is forecast once again for next week so I will bask in all its waterproof-free glory whilst it lasts. I will live, defiantly, in the moment. May is possiblyContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Guano”
Six on Saturday – Precipice
This week presented both challenges and achievements. I had a short stint in the doldrums which has now been replaced by my usual “annoyingly positive”. The sun shone and the hail hailed. Jumpers were on, jumpers were off. Work has been great. Things are eventually moving in a happy direction, but sadly Welsh Ann hadContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Precipice”
Six on Saturday – Stormy
The prospect of Storm Kathleen hovers. She is the 11th named storm of the year and will undoubtedly bringing mayhem and destruction in her skirt tails. Which is ample excuse to have taken photos on Friday when the weather, though gusty and showery, was a little more well mannered. Looking out of the office windowContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Stormy”
Six on Saturday – Fussing
Are we there yet? Not quite. After a balmy t-shirt day yesterday, today the wind is bitter and showers are forecast. I must remind myself it is still March and be patient. Easier said than done. Still, plants continue to nudge above the surface and buds are swelling, in spite of the gardener’s fussing. AndContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Fussing”
Six on Saturday – Glimpse
The incessant inertia of winter’s chilly wind and rain is eventually showing signs of let-up. In the past week there have been hints that all will be well. These might have been mere glimpses of hope that the ground will one day not be sodden, a jumper will not be needed and the bare earthContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Glimpse”
Six on Saturday – Just Wait
Another balmy week, with mixed fortunes. Things are moving on; every day a little longer even if not a little brighter. Seeds have been sown, pots watched, germinations welcomed with joy. The garden is sodden but the greenhouse is an oasis. Still, the threat of cold lingers. That is about it. Our Six on SaturdayContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Just Wait”
Six on Saturday – Back to it
After a self-awarded sabbatical, I returned to work this week with a squelch. Still, it could have been an awful lot worse, it could have rained on Wednesday as well. This positive thinking is 100% due to having had a month off. I am refreshed. Ask me my thoughts again in a couple of weeks. Only joking, my mindset hasContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Back to it”
