  1. How can I ignore you when you wave so nicely :huglove:

  2. Which would mean waiting for a phonecall/text all Monday - too stressful for words. I think I'll settle for going to choir pratice :sad:

  3. I've thought about it. I know I could get away with it - my boss is hopeless at discipline - to the detriment of the organisation - it's one of his more endearing qualities.:wub2:

     

    But if I do it and my staff find out how would I manage them afterwards? They would be doing the same whenever they feel like it. And I would lose authority.

     

    And fundamentally it's dishonest - it would spoil the enjoyment. I'm not the sort who pushes boundaries like that - I've been too well dragged up.

  4. Hi Silver

     

    Result from the RHS :thumb_yello:

     

    "Thank you for your enquiry to the Royal Horticultural Society's Members’ Advisory Service.

     

    The image you sent for identification appears to depict, not an umbellifer but Valeriana officinalis, a perennial plant widespread in much of Europe. Its wide natural range of distribution is reflected in the great degree of variation which it shows and this has resulted in the naming of numerous subspecific variants, few of which, however, are now recognised. V. officinalis has heads of pale pink or, occasionally, white, flowers, borne on a stem about 1m (3ft) tall. The leaves are variable but are usually pinnately divided. It is easily grown, blends well with other perennial plants and seems attractive to cats. It grows wild in ditches, damp woods and rough grassy places. Judging by the shape of the leaves yours is probably the subspecies V. officinalis subsp. sambucifolia.

     

    Yours sincerely,

  8. Hi Neiobi - I just looked at the list of twitter followers on my account - it shows your real name as well as user name - you might want to edit your settings to protect your privacy :huglove:

  9. Hi Guy

     

    Did you know that, if you look at alist of Mika's twitter followers, it shows your full name, as well as username? you might like to edit it for privacy (if you are as paranoid as I am about such things)

  10. Rose - if you look at Mika's list of followers you get username and full name - if you don't want your surname in a public arena, you might like to edit your twitter profile :thumb_yello:
