what a lucky girl I am :-)
Thu, 2 Oct 2008 10:46:58 +0100
I have had two gifts this morning and it isn't even my birthday, one is the
latest Will Young album and the other is a pruning saw, so I can use one
whilst listening to the other :-)

Autumn is here
Thu, 2 Oct 2008 08:35:00 +0100
For us in UK
Framed, as from a hill top high,
on display some scenic sight,
Fields and forests waving in
a swaying sea of lilting light.
Woods in Autumn glory shed
coloured sequins from their gowns,
as they change from Summer green
into gold and reds and browns.
Curving in a smile of pride,
far horizon ...

Chilli Id
Wed, 1 Oct 2008 18:20:18 +0100
Hi all,
I received my consignment of fresh chillis from peppers by post, which
included a mixed bag. Trouble is, I have no idea what any of them are. Could
anyone who's good with chilli varieties have a look at:

Bulbine frutescens - how hardy?
Wed, 1 Oct 2008 13:35:34 +0100
Does anyone here grow Bulbine frutescens? I know it's winter hardy in
milder areas, but how about the London suburbs, or further north? I don't
have a proper greenhouse, but share an upright mini-greenhouse with my cat,
Cheetah. I'm sure she'd let me put a couple of plants in (!), but it's
really little mor ...

A recipe
Wed, 1 Oct 2008 13:29:32 +0100

fruits about the size of my index finger. So what to do with them?
Well I sliced them into rings, tossed them, and a big handful of ripe red
baby tomatoes, into an extra virgin olive oil doused pan along with 2 cloves
of crushed garlic. I qu ...

Bible. At the time He assumed human fo ...

Wed, 1 Oct 2008 09:58:01 +0100
Lovely day here with the sun filtering through the clouds and glancing
through the window, trying to dance on my fingers as I tap away at the
keyboard. Leaves are slowly turning colour and dropping gracefully in a
final flaunting fluttering twirl.
Autumn is upon us - may it be a gracious and gentle month befo ...
