Yes, Flash Harry used to come every weekend as his Daddy was working for his Mum ,fitting out the showroom etc and F,H’s Mummy worked in the Nursery of one of Bury’s best school ,to have worked there was a recommendation in itself so she did not want to break contract , so grandson had his little family all together on Sundays then FH to himself on Mondays , it worked very well .
He is a very hands on daddy.
At Eye Clinic today, all is very well and Mr.Agrawal the Consultant came to see me, me although I was being attended to by one of his staff ,another lovely person.
Really cold today and heavy rain.
I had grown three pepper plants from seeds I saved from peppers.
Growing well but one partially pulled up just before I left , no idea what would do that, but all three gone now-
The sweet Williams from seeds are 18 inches high and full of flowers ,also,poppies doing well, no flowers open as yet.Cosmos likewise.
Hollyhocks- nothing.
Last year I “retrieved “ some hollyhock seeds from plants in a cottage garden near my daughter’s, spilling in to the pavement so I picked some up. They have not germinated at all .
Went to a “ Wartime 40’s dance on Saturday evening in the Village Hall, the area is strongly connected to The Battle of Britain so lots of RAF uniforms.
A real Swing Band, and many dancers jitterbugging etc.
Quite nostalgic .
Grand daughter’s wedding plans falling into place ,August, all quite informal but sounds lovely ,a real village wedding .
“ Wild “ flowers in Church, but don’t worry they are cultivated ones , and grown specially, people sow their seeds in various places in the wild after the wedding when flowers are dry.I can imagine quite a few do germinate so that is good.
Hope all are as well as can be expected, I know many are being very brave.
We do think about you ,
Cheerio . So nice to be in contact again.
