Cheers to Rich in the Lake District for sending this lovely snap today and don’t it look great up in the background? “A lovely day here, freezing and sunny.” It wasn’t bad here in London today either, bright and sunny. And no rain for a change.
Do you reckon sping is on its way? Or not very far away?
A big cheers to Rich in the Lake District again, for sending this picture of what appeared in his front garden the other day. Wow, that is one mad “male Common Pheasant (Phasianus colchicus), also frequently called a Ring-necked Pheasant.” as AI told us. Cheers Rich, anything else mad that turns up as mad please let us know.
Cheers to Rich in the Lake District for sending these great sunset pictures from last week. Looks like quite a magical place! Keep those pictures coming.
Cheers to Rich R up in the Lake District for sending us this dramatic picture of what the weather was like up there yesterday. They’ve had some snow and the sky is looking a bit angry. Keep warm up there Rich!
A big thanks to our good friend Rich R up in the Lake District for sending over the photograph of his cosmos (and a shout to Debby H too, as the seeds came from her plants). Rich writes, “Really cold here today, wind chill feels like 2°C. With hard frosts and snow on the way, I thought I’d better send you this pic of the cosmos before it’s too late.”
Brilliant stuff, Rich – thanks again (and to Debby H) for sharing!
Following on from our last post of Rich R‘s front garden in the lake district, this is what he said “If I turn the camera a couple of degrees the view is, in my opinion, even better!” and he’s right!
Cheers to Rich R in the Lake District for sending us pictures of lily from his front garden, and what a view!
Cheers to Rich R for sending us this and to Daphne for taking the pic which cheered us up no end this grey morning. It’s a view of Scotland from the lake district. Wonderful stuff!
Cheers to our friend in the Lake District Rich R for sending us a picture of his first cosmos flower, brilliant stuff. It’s fantastic about all this passing on seeds that gardeners do and a big cheers to Debby H for starting all this cosmos mania off in the first place. Ours are still a work in progress, but we may know more in a few days time.
Rich also sent us a pic of Bassenthwaite Lake from the other evening, looks great. Cheers for those!
Cheers To Rich R for the picture (above) from the Lake District one sunny day this week. Looks wonderful up there Rich!
Thanks to Mike & Julia from up near Coventry for an update on how their hydroponic basil is getting on. It looks great to us and possible an alternative way of growing it. Interesting stuff.
