It does not appear cos you have copied the wrong line from Photobucket  You need to copy the one which starts with img

bbbrrrr.  Great pic.  Kent really seems to have suffered the brunt of the weather.  Our snow tried and tried to settle, but the most we really got was a light dusting.  Now tis dry but fffrrrreeeeezing!

 ;D Beautiful 8) I'm amazed the Pampas grass wasn't flattened by the snow. ;D

 ;DThat pampass grass is a bit of a shall I? sharn't I?..situation. A hedgehog lives under all the leaves, the birds pull the heads off for nesting, but its a bit of a pain I have to keep chopping it back it is in the way of the path. If I plant something else it wouldn't be mature enough for the wildlife..so at the moment it stays.

A real winter wonderland Val, and lovely photo.  We haven't any snow here in W/Bay, just cold and drizzly, think it would be warmer if we did.  :D busy_lizzie

Just as I thought Val - by the way, liked your wintery picture of the Home for the Bewildered Gardener [Kent].  Can't call it real snow - looks more like those frosts we used to get when I was a kid........... ;D ;D ;D

 ;D Ah yes I know, the violins are playing, you walked to school starving barefoot through the snow, come off it, I bet you're no older than me. ;D ;Dand the '63 year was the worse you saw. I think the year of '47 was a bit worse but that was just to announce my arrival. ;D

Title: Re: This morning
Post by: Val on March 03, 2005, 11:01:25
 ;D Hiya, yes I'll swop, another day being snowed in and all the family at home..oh hang on there's something bright out there hurting my eyes and what is that blue stuff in the air...good heavens I do believe its sun and sky...well I never did.  ;D

I think Kent is being a bit obtuse these days Val - weren't you boiling in the summer when we were all but drowning? And now you are snowed in and we are basking in sun (it's still blinking cold though!).

Cheers SkyP - It was getting late and the old bins were tired so missed the link.  Saw it after posting but for some reason when I returned later on to send a grovel, I couldn't get back to the page so kicked the dog out into the rain to go for a pee on her own and went to bed........... ;D ;D ;D

Isn't it a bit risky to be gardening this time of the year wearing the tartan?  ...............and the answer to question 2 is "No ma'am, everything is in perfect working order."

What do you burn on the 'ancient stove'?  It must be hard to provide heat for any long periods of time with it.  Loved your conservatory but where's the refreshments?
