I am a fan of roses too.

Although my hollyhocks are still doing ok so I should be grateful for that.

I may have to get some more seeds out there and start again.

I think I'm going to loose quite a few of my plants particularly the pots, which are all roses. I started watering too late.

My dad asked me yesterday if I have Alzheimer's, I think it was better when he said I had asthma, and if he goes back to saying I'm artistic I think I'll just agree. He's had over ten months to learn one word

At least he remembers that it...."starts with the letter 'A'".

I confided to a buddy that I was dxd with aspergers syndrome, and now he cant stop talking about how I have "Down's Syndrome".

But he is not my dad. Just a friend who is literally crazy himself ( he had been dxd with bipolar, and schzoptypal, and gawd knows what else himself). So it doesn't bother a person as much as it would if he were a sane parent.

I'm a bit baffled as to why the Queen Elizabeth rose bush nearest the house hasn't yet produced a flower, while the one in the foreground has no such issue....... :scratch:

I was hoping for Croatia too as they have never won before and did so well to get so far.

But I also know how well France has been playing and how strong their team are.

Both deserving winners - as was a lot of teams.

Oh yes. Marvellous.

I was most impressed by our young players, who can only get better and better as they develop.

Looking forward to the next cup

Droughts suck.....especially in a normally rainy place like the UK.
