    life of leisure

    hi all the otherday my grandaughter came over, while she was here she went onto my computer to play with the paint software, next thing i heard was Grandad look at the cat, roflmao : fast a sleep on top of my computer screen  but he's a nice cat really loving, bless

    plant cuttings

    hi all i just thought i would show you how my plant cuttings are doing, they are bilbergia, streptocarpus, gloxinia and a christmas cactus,(its stopped flowering last week) they are on a south facing windowsill, if a frost comes i place some cardboard between the glass and plants to keep them warm, or place a net over top, i dont water much around every 3--4 weeks as they dont drink much this time of year, and its not really warm in the bedroom (as i cant sleep in a warm room) the electric storage heater is set at 4/5 on the landing is that around 55% 60% anyway not to hot, just warm enough to take the chill out of the air when we get up in the morning,
