Hello again,Pat, Dave, it's good to know that you are recovering from your respective operations.Everything seems, and does take a lot longer these days to heal,I think our age has a lot to do with it.Pat's looking forward to being a bit cooler,and we over here are can't for it to get warmer and DRIER.It's so sad to see so much flood damage here in Kent,but as I have said in the past,our village is on high ground so no flood damage.As I drive around I see lots of it, "chocolate box" homes and gardens that will take a along time to recover from it and some that won't,but people pull together and help each other.How are things up north momac,lots of buds out in the garden I expect, Iv'e had some small roses out on one of my climbers for a couple of weeks now, how long for I don't know?? bye for now H.
