Ooh, that IS exotic! I thought I’d found a geranium I liked yesterday but turns out it was a begonia. (according to a certain know-it-all 😦 ) Happy Saturday! Watcha up to? Mick’s watching Pools on telly 😦
I’m struggling to catch up on blogs. Have had awful stomach cramps for the past couple of days so feeling quite rough. No walking for me today 😦
Oh, heck! What brought that on? Sorry about the ‘funnies’ 😦 Hope you’re fit soon! You’ve got company coming, haven’t you?
No idea! Years since I had stomach cramps like these. Cold hands and feet too…. 😦
And yes, the Aussies arrive tomorrow at Heathrow, drive down to Cornwall on Monday, but they are not staying with us, thank goodness!
Been eating too many brambles out of the hedgerows? 😦
Sort of feels like that, or eating sour apples! But no, can’t think what has set it off.
Cuddling the babes will make you feel better. 🙂 🙂
oh no poor you . . . .take it easy and hope you are back to your usual self soon. Sending lots of hugs in meantime xx
I never get stomach ache so goodness knows what’s going on. Blooming painful though… thanks for the hugs!
Poor poor you . . hope all is ok this morning. if not hope someone is ‘nagging’ you to make a drs appt xxx
PS Fabulous exotic today 🙂
yes, this is quite an unusual colour combo.
What beautiful color contrast!
Stunning colors! So lovely. I hope you’re feeling better!
Be well very quickly. Nothing worse than wasting family time with something painful. May it have gone away already. That flower is the most amazing mix of colours.
Love the square format and use it often. Your flower with its gorgeous colors and composition works beautifully, Jude.
Unusual and so many flower buds.
Bromeliads are strange plants.
True! Love that they have built in reservoirs for collecting dew .. and hosting facilities for frogs and other kinds of visiting insects 🙂
I like all your square Septembers but will be here all day if I comment! This one is my favourite though, i’m pretty sure I’ve seen them at Coleton Fishacre 🙂
Thanks Gilly. I have so many flower photos it has been really good to get them out.
