I am even more distracted today. I know, it doesn’t take much. It has been one of those days when the planets align and stuff happens. Hottest day of the year so far, the stairlift engineer came, a lovely card with seed packets arrived, there was a flying ant infestation in the kitchen, oh yes,Continue reading “Six on Saturday – Excitement”

Six on Saturday – New Friends
If it wasn’t for May, I think June would be my favourite month. There is still optimism in the air and the ravages of reality are yet to pay a visit. All is good. Anything is possible. Today is the first SoS of my second best month. All the pots have now been transported fromContinue reading “Six on Saturday – New Friends”
Six on Saturday – Balance
Here we are again, happy as can be, all good friends and jolly good company. Another Six on Saturday and quite frankly I’m not sure I’ve got a lot to offer; no tales to tell, no yarns to spin. I have got a few plants to share with you, which after all is the point,Continue reading “Six on Saturday – Balance”
Six on Saturday – Waiting
My photos for this Six on Saturday were restrained by the fact I had to be within hearing distance of the phone. OH was out doing the weekly shop, God bless him, and I was on high alert, loitering within ear-shot. Therefore, all pictures had to be taken within two leaps of the back door.Continue reading “Six on Saturday – Waiting”
Six on Saturday – No Name
Sometimes you can get caught up in your own little world of misery. Which is what has happened to me this week, or perhaps a fortnight. It is tooth related, a design fault to my mind. In the scheme of things, it is small beer, but still, the mire of my mood persists. Weakness isContinue reading “Six on Saturday – No Name”
Six on Saturday – From a Safe Distance
Harold Wilson once said that a week in politics is a long time. Over this past week so much has been happening worldwide that it feels like an eternity. Still spring skips along and stuff is happening; good things both in the garden and out. If you want to see how alike we are aroundContinue reading “Six on Saturday – From a Safe Distance”
Six on Saturday – I’m Back
After a couple of weeks absent from Six on Saturday-ing (what do you mean you didn’t notice?), I am back in the loving arms of the SoS family. You might imagine that whilst away I was undertaking exciting and adventurous exploits, about which you would be only half right. Half of the time, not halfContinue reading “Six on Saturday – I’m Back”
Six on Saturday – The Moment
August: ready or not here we come! Soon there will talk of cool nights and shortening days, but let us not wish our lives away. There is plenty of time left to fret about watering and dead heading and whether we have fed our tomatoes enough or are the slugs and snails attacking whilst IContinue reading “Six on Saturday – The Moment”
Six on Saturday – I made it in the end
I definitely wasn’t going to do a SoS this week, categorically not. Then I relented, I changed my mind. Which is par for the course. Please bear this in mind if you are trying to persuade me to co-star with Hugh Jackman in a remake of Les Mis. Here we are again, and which meansContinue reading “Six on Saturday – I made it in the end”
