A Jewish joke. No flames please. I am (sort of) so I can.

Rose and Millie meet in the park.

Rose - So, how's life Millie?

Millie - Terrible! Sidney bought me flowers yesterday.

Rose - What! Your husband buys you flowers and you're complaining?

Millie - Rose, you don't know what I have to do when he buys me flowers.

Rose - What do you have to do?

Millie - When my husband buys me flowers I have to lie on my back with my legs in the air.

Rose - What! You don't have a vase?

Mud. It needs to be said in a Bronxy/Yiddish accent. Think Joan Rivers.

wotcha bub, I took out lots of houseplants for a 'holiday' in the sun yesterday. Bit of digging. Bit of faffing. Need to get my planting plan frozen and then order all the plants in !

I've finished the lard landscaping at the front (small) and back (medium), so now it's just lighting / planting / irrigation to finish off nicely. Have a terrible habit of not finishing stuff. Must improve.

Front garden (small) looked like a mucky building site for YEARS. Must have driven all our lovely neighbours mad. Now it is a blaze of colour and scent and everyone stops to comment !

User KatieMac suggested a source of cheap(er) tree ferns (B&Q) so may track one down in the next week or so... have had an image in my head of walking down path under tree fonds, lost in the semi-tropics of N. London for several years

Hope you're gonna read those notes today / tomorrow.
