Looks like you are having a good year with your roses BB. Nice photos.

Thanks SB. Most haven't reached their best yet. Hopefully some better weather this month will help them along.

I also thank you Mel for your comments,I suppose we have more time now we are retired and if you both enjoy gardening it is something we do together and get much pleasure. Many of our plants and shrubs I have raised from cuttings which I take each year - sometimes they root and other times they don't then that is gardening. I would love to have more garden so that we could grow our own vegetables like we did when we first were married,then that was the way I thought it should be as my Father always had an allotment off Saxon road and grew all our Veg' which to this day I can see him wheeling a barrowful home of freshly dug new potatoes,carrots and peas. Now sadly Veg' comes from the market stall or supermarkets - never the same as growing your own.

My Grand dad had two allotments off eastern way, almost behind Normanston Park.I loved going there,had to cross the railway line to Gt Yarmouth but as the trains were slower and noisy then had plenty of warning if they were coming.He losted a leg in the first war and it still amazes me that he managed to dig one allotment let along two.
