Join us on our six day break to Dorset this coming September.  We will be staying at the Riviera Hotel on the front at Bournemouth on a half board basis.  Our break will include a homage to Thomas Hardy as a local guide takes us around the places that Thomas set his wonderful novels.  We will sail along the Jurassic coast casting envious looks at the houses of the rich on Sandbanks and say hi to Brownsea Island and Old Harry’s Rocks as we make our way to Poole Harbour.

Hello everyone. Gardening is not far away, especially planning the garden. No doubt we all lost some of our favourite plants, l lost 50% of my tropical collection and the remaining ones that survived l am waiting for a sign of new growth.
We should be noticing an improvement next month so it’s a good time now to find a nice day and dig over the border lift and divide clumps of perennials. Any spare we could exchange between ourselves especially as we are going to notice a big rise in prices at the garden centres. l have ordered some new seed varieties l am going to sow hopefully I will share them with you .
