Rachel's Journal

you done well rachel, happy reading

Nice lot!

Plenty to keep you busy Rachel while there isn't so much going on in the garden :-)

Dare I say, Zac was on the ball ............... LOL enjoy.

Sadly, my hints on the voucher for Johnstown fell on deaf ears. 

Oh dear, Poor Fran!

The funny thing was, the hints were for Maria's family Kris Kindle, where you buy for one person only, hints were not dropped, but thrown at, and to make it worse the in-law in question is ten minutes from Johnstown.

In-laws.............. who would have them ??????????

LOL 

H a ha

You did get nice gardening presents and of course you will enjoy every one of them .  I love the photo and must look and see if mine survived.

.

ah poor fran, i am sure you will still manage to come away from johnstown with loads of stuff regardless

Great presents Rachel and sometimes it is nice when list is ignored as it shows a bit of effort went into selection - Ha Ha poor Fran sounds like just the kind of in law you don't want hope it was not socks!!

The Language of flowers is a beautiful book, Grahams daughter bought it for me 

Kate, the book I have is the 'The Language of Flowers A Miscellany'. It is not the novel called 'The Language of Flowers' but is an accompanying book to the novel. It explains the Victorian symbolism of various flowers and looks very interesting. Do you have the novel and/or this book?

Mary, you are right in many ways.

My favourite gardening book was not one I asked for but was a surprise present.
