I don't have a proper thick denim skirt but I do have a navy chambray one and I love it. So comfy! <br />The coir compost is good. I bought a couple of blocks of it last year and it was v useful esp as it is so light yo carry. My peashoots are currently growing in it! <br />There's still so many lovely flowers on your garden! My patch of Nasturtiums is continuing to grow which I'm thrilled about! Still v small though. <br />The car is really smart!

Your garden is still going great guns whereas ours over here are ready to bed down for the winter. I still have some sort of trailing ivy-type plant on my porch that the squirrels keep digging in but as I have no place to keep it inside I'm going to have to find it another home for the winter.<br /><br />I'm envious that you are going to see the French Dispatch.

We need a new mop head so I'll go there for it. The still blooming flowers in your garden are just lovely and I am determined to have Nasturtiums next year - what jolly flowers they are and they seem to last so long.
