Well. Welcome to this thread.
You may be surprised why it is here or happy it is here. Then again: ‘You have got to be joking! Do you know what is wrong with me?’ may be your response.
This all began on the Extreme Fatigue thread. On there several people wanted and needed inspiration/incentive to get out and walk. Many people see the benefits of it in their life and to help on this; mad journey, train ride, rollercoaster ride and other positively rude words journey called Breast Cancer.
It is not a thread created to make anyone feel less than they do at present. It is not a thread that will set people against one another. Being competitive with yourself or a simple challenge to yourself is the point, but not a race against others is a key premis.
The idea is that you can do any of these or none:
Well here goes.
Either it will grow and blossom, with lots of lovely people benefiting. Or I will have egg all over my face – not for the first time in my chequered life and career.
Leolady – may be adding in the odd gallop to my walks.
PS if you don't like us don't be cruel.
My garden is always hit and miss but the dahlias always flower until the frosts. So.....why not try. They only take about six weeks to grow into plants that do flower....I do know that for continued flowering, you must cut dahlia flowers so I keep a vase permanently in my hall.
some lovely wicker work on a trail today
Thanks for having a go,Jayhay…
sorry it is a bit of a convoluted clue.Liverpool was a good guess!
In fact it was Frome which is (relatively ) near to Glastonbury.I didn’t expect the Frome name though!Yes,Paul McCartney singing there lead to this great shop display
sorry she is a bit bare…possibly a bit cold too!
love V xx
Visited the Botanic Gardens in Cambridge earlier this week, before the heat, thankfully! Met lovely friends from my ear acupuncture sessions (pre the first lockdown so a long time ago! But we’ve kept in touch, I call us the hormonally deranged group as we’re all on oestrogen busters!) Beautiful day, walks round the gardens and cafe visits. Weather was perfect. Hopefully a return visit before too long. Happy weekend to all, HFxx
Such pretty wild flowers HappyFeet1,and that rainbow!Jayhay…well I like seeing all the photos really…
it is going to be hot ladies!so get out your sun-scream,as I just heard a little girl say on the news!
Sun scream sounds so funny, Violetsniff! Makes me remember son’s description of windscreen wipers, ‘wimscreamers’!
Great pics, all! Too hot to walk today plus I’m isolating just in case (sore throat yesterday and feeling like I may have a slight cold today but negative so far) but I have picked loads of fruit and begun to make loganberry jelly!
