SS. I took them pictures at 'Gardening Scotland' at Ingliston, Edinburgh in 2005!!! I didn't manage to get there 2006. Took loads of pics of magnificent flowers. Good to look back on on a dark dismal and stormy night in mid winter!!! ;) ;)

Any more summery pictures please? The rain is hammering on my window and the wind has just blown my front door open and scared me witless. Need flower-therapy and quick!

Now they really have cheered me up, just got home after celebrating the start of 2007 with family. we all had a lovely time. John brought me and a friend home (about 4 mile round trip) and the wind is blowing and rain lashing down. Just about managed to hold on to the car door. Never mind I won't get wet where I am going in a minute.
Happy 2007 to you all.
Lorna.

Really lovely, Georgie! Thank you. This is a smashing thread - let's try and keep it going through the 'dark days'. We all need a dose of sunshine!
