The Poppies and Peony get swamped almost every year, they are better at forecasting the (bad) weather than the Met Office.

Go for it .....the collection and storage of the seed heads of that flower are straight forward, next year you can have a garden full of them.....Best of luck. The Peony has started to bloom too, so bad weather definitely on the way.

Plenty of info on the Web, seems some Spanish seeds need soaking in water to soften them, being from a much warmer climate I doubt they would need freezing, from what I read I think the room where I put the seeds to germinate is too cool, says 20 to 25c, our spare room only gets to that temp in a heatwave.

It is only (that I know of ) Poppies that need freezing. As said I have tried a few seeds from Spain over the years, had very little success with any of them, well actually no luck, managed to get some to germinate, but they withered and came to nothing, may have had more success if they had been In a greenhouse.

That is what I do with the Poppies, dry them till they are brown and shake the seeds out, the Poppie seeds have to have several weeks in the freezer though, or they won't germinate the following year. I bought some seed heads back from Majorca one year, got the seeds out, put them in potting compost the following year, they did nothing.

Our Poppies have started to bloom, so we can expect it to piss down with rain soon and destroy them!.

Hello & Welcome......I can't even remember being a 37 waist never mind 37 years old.

.....going to bin it, replacing the jack was something to do to pass some time, not lost anything much, the new power jack was only £5.

looked on line for help, most say insert recovery disc, but this does not have a disc drive. Bin looking favourite now.

Can't do anything with it, it just stays on the start up password screen, no other options on the screen.

No.....its on Window, but dont think its running Windows 10....had it maybe 7 years +

Soldered a new power jack on my laptop, starts up a treat, but I can't remember the password to unlock the screen. looks like it's heading for the bin

We only holidayed in Spain for the 1st time in 2001, Finances were not good enough before then to go, so it was hols in England, went to Wales once (Tenby), and now things have come full circle, back, to shit holidays in Mablethorpe.

Trouble is that i miss out on things, my buddy will say "you fancy a spin out" and ì have to decline (for a peaceful life at home)... he and some other guys have just had a long weekend in Wales (Betwys y Coed) on the scoots, loved to have gone. But my wife can't do her own thing if I was away, she can't drive, can't walk far, bus service around here crap, and she ain't no homing pidgeon, she can get lost in Asda carpark, so unlike other members she can't toddle off on her own if I was away, so that's why I never get much (if any) me time.

Ask Six, he may be up for the MOD gig.

She has a better right hook than me.

Too late for me.

I had a weekend away (Germany) in 2008.....that nearly ended in divorce......

I know my place........just glad we ain't got a cat or dog, or i would be 3rd.

Another cloudy & breezy day here......13c...rubbish.

Not hot in the sun here with the breeze blowing, had my fleece on outside.

Yeh ...I have been watching the YouTube live stream this afternoon.

He sold Cockles, Mussels, Prawns and Kippers, Fuck knows what his proper title was.
