Listened to the first half, safe to say we've been ****e, all over the shop. I'm not worried about that because we're still experimenting obviously but the commentators did say we're not a match for them physically and if we don't rectify that we'll be in trouble. It's not rocket science, buy a few big lads. On their way hopefully.
Had a ticket to go today. Just didn't feel I'll be able gage much from it. Massive transition usually means a slow start so think it's far too early to expect much. Not watching the England game either. Packing and listening to tunes busy Bri.
I'm not watching it either doing a rare bit of gardening and got bored of listening to music so I put the game on. I dug a border a couple of months ago and we planted a load of wildflower seeds to fill out the gaps in the plants but now they've grown I swear they're big **** off weeds and not flowers. Spent a couple of hours pulling the ugly buggers off before they take over even more.
If they're annuals and perennials mixed then none of the perennials will flower this year, they'll remain as foliage until it's time to die back, also unless your boarder is massive you'll find some of these non flowering perennials take up far too much space for the bother. I can't be doing with mixed seed myself. Not a fan at all. Boarders, especially deep ones with a large surface area need at least three years of well disciplined patience while it fills itself out. Let you main shrubs and bushs spread and cover space over time, then you can plant/sow with the seasons with your personally selected annuals and perenials. In three years it will look cock on. If you want to fill it out the gaps I'd get some horse **** on it , it will thank you in the coming years as it will create a micro environment which will attract worms which will condition the structure of your bed which will help with drainage and improve oxygen access to the roots. Healthy free roaming root means you get better results above the soil. Miss having a boarder me, you lucky bugger.
He's the next Swedish sensation from the U23s - well now that Asoro has gone. He has now scored 8 goals in his last 3 games.
Nice one thanks for the advice, gardening has always been just cutting the grass and watering hanging baskets so far so this is all new to me. Lots to learn. It's not a wide one but it's quite long (that's what she said) and there's a fair bit in it. Thought I might as well take a pic, carnage included. As in all the uprooted plants, it's not the dogs name.
That's looking grand mate. Be high maintenance keeping shrubs at bay with that space so I'd keep to annuals and perennials. Look to be picking up plants like hellabore, violas, cyclamen and viburnum as they become available for winter colour. Look at all that **** on your grass. ****ing mixed seed eh. Did the wild flower mix say it was dog friendly? Need to be careful with dogs what you plant. I couldn't tell you what's bad for them though as I don't have dogs. If you take to gardening than that boarder will get will gradually get wider guaranteed, then you can really have fun with Dahlias. They're my favourite. Bishop of llandaff in particular, they have vibrant red flowers and black foliage, set white foxgloves off and other white flowers around them and selfishly your garden suddenly goes all Sunderland just in time for the run up and into the kick off of every season.
Good shout but much like the original patio it's the cheapest quality possible and peeling away in strips so at some point I'll have to broach the subject to next door about going halvsies on a new fence. It gets plenty of sun though so yeah a fruit tree would be great. I'd probably kill it though.
Got loads of fruit trees mate they look after themselves its the bloody birds you have to worry about.
True that, I've got one of these trees in the other corner and a bird feeder to keep them occupied but I imagine they'll just go for whatever looks tastiest.
