Go away rain!

Don't you love Bank Holidays?

I want more.

I have a date with Little man and Spurs boy to watch Snow White this afternoon.

We were hoping for a BBQ but due to the sudden rain and cold weather that will be on hold. I'll be a little annoyed to wake up on Tuesday and be stuck in the office!

Oh and who is your favourite from Snow White? Mine is Dopey (Obvious reasons) but closely followed by Bashful.

Good Luck To England on Wednesday

I apologise for this second post on football in the last week for those uninterested in it.

I felt I should write a post about wishing England "Good Luck" on Wednesday night when they play Croatia. I wish I could be as excited for the game like a Manchester United game, but England never seem to have the same exciting football, I always feel uninspired after. There are some of the players who are proud to wear the national shirt, but there are others (Steven Gerrard for example) who don't show the same spirit or hunger that they do for their club teams which is a real shame.

I of course can remember all to well England's last encounter with Croatia and the picture below (the Wally with the brolly headline) being on the front and back of newspapers the next day, I was shocked that we had played so badly and I hope that this could be the time in South Africa for England to win the World Cup.



But, I know that England haven't really faced a big test for some time now and I don't honestly believe that we can match Brazil or Spain in the final of The World Cup? I hope so.

I also hope it doesn't rain on Wednesday night and that no one hands Fabio Capello an umbrella!

Me and My New Friend

I have a new friend. She cannot speak and the only communication I have with her is for me to talk to her. Sometimes depending on how loud I speak she will go away as the noise has surprised her.

I only see my new friend when I'm in the garden, and she enjoys watching me plant out seeds, seedlings and even eating my tomatoes (!). I've never seen her at night-time and she does not come out when it rains. Today I have not seen her at all, I think she finds somewhere dry and undercover until its warmer again.

Anyone know what she is?

Little bug(ger)

The same pesky little bug that took to eating most of my gerbera seedlings has taken vengeance again in the garden! This time with my lettuces, managed to save 2 of them luckily. I can report that my gerbera that I rescued is still doing very well, away from the bugs!

We now have pea pods, and the runner bean plants are flowering nicely. Still haven't got any red tomatoes yet, but have got little green ones starting to appear finally.

I had nearly given up on my love in a mist flowers, they had just been a bush of foliage really, but now there are white buds ready to flower.

Looks like it might rain again here
