A ‘Har-Lot’? <br /> <br />I thought the 'Irish police show' improved this week (but perhaps too MUCH lovely scenery).<br /><br />PostScript:<br />University Challenge:<br />It’s hard to keep count but I’m over 90% certain that I got 16 answers before or instead of the contestants (including all the MusicHall artists and 3 out of 4 Jazz singers).<br /><br />The Street:<br />Almost a happy ending to another superb drama dealing objectively and empathetically with problems that don’t hit most of us (but we know someone...)bobnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23282643.post-13897526221916965202009-08-10T19:30:14.700+01:002009-08-10T19:30:14.700+01:00Liked the orchid photo - it looks very much at fir...Liked the orchid photo - it looks very much at first glance like the everlasting pea which I am trying to grow (I pinched a bit through the railings of the railway line where it flourishes).<br /><br />Changing plant - I am sure when we transplanted the anemone japonica from back garden to drive we moved the white ones, as they looked more hardy and stronger plants.All the ones on the drive have flowered pink.....<br /><br />No rain here, but dull, grey, warm with a breeze.<br /><br />Caterpillar - we had to look it up, I just knew what it wasn't.<br /><br />You didn't say what it was that was not working - I hope it isn't essential.....<br /><br />Success! - in Waitrose I found the Birds Eye fish in a bag - two sorts, the haddock and something called 'balissa'. No salmon. Never heard of balissa, I can't track it down on Wikipedia either.<br /><br />We had a 'flock' of Painted Ladies in garden again yesterday - what is the collective noun for Painted Ladies? Bob might know.... About twenty of them - lovely.<br /><br />I watched the Irish Police prog. last night - not bad, but a bit long. The 'Lewis' I watched earlier seemed to whizz by, the Irish one dragged a bit, I thought.Jillnoreply@blogger.com
