No NGS garden this weekend, so I had chance to catchup with my garden and try to tame my vegetable plot. I made the mistake of letting some potatoes grow, instead of oiking them out, when they first protruded from the soil. They were potatoes which had been left in the ground from last years crop. I felt bad digging them up but didn't estimate how much room they would take up. Consequently, they smothered my lettuces, french marigolds and tomatoes and when I had finally had enough of them and dug them up, the measly few potatoes they yielded, were green, as they were too close to the surface! Also I made the mistake of sowing too many tomatoes and I am finding it difficult to find a space for them. I absolutely hate throwing plants away, especially if I have grown them from seed, so I will have to shoehorn them in somewhere. And there is my next mistake. I put plant in too close together. Oh my goodness I don't think my veg plot is going very well this year! Runner Bean 'Painted Lady' I have had some success in the flower garden though but I won't take all the credit. I had a patch of grass, on which I put plastic last year so that I had somewhere to grow butternut squash, in grow bags and this was going to be my veg patch, until my best friend Linda, suggested that I would be better growing flowers there and to save the veggies to the top of the garden, which I did. We removed the turf, which was pretty much dead anyway and stored it in a space, to rot down to loam. (You will see from the photograph below, that there is horrible green plastic still covering the turfs) I moved some plants which I had in the garden, to the new bed and with space it meant buying some more plants. Some women like shoes and handbags, but I cannot resist a gorgeous flower and I get great pleasure from buying plants - ooh it's such a lovely feeling! We then purchased two tonnes of Scottish pebbles from StoneZone in Ferndown in Dorset, which cost an arm and a leg but well worth the effort and expense, although back breaking work, with Andy shovelling the stones into the wheelbarrow, pushing it up the drive and then depositing them for me to put around the plants. Work in progress Lavender Vera I love visiting garden centres and from one of my local garden centres Stewarts in Ferndown, I bought this lovely willow heart wreath, to go on my studio door. I love bits and bobs in the garden and I am excited as I have purchased a new book from Amazon called Shed Chic. I want to overhaul my summer house and this book looks very inspirational. Is anyone every satisfied with their garden? At the beginning of the season I had high hopes for my veg garden. It might still come good. The peas, beans and runner beans are all looking good but I still have a lot to learn, still with my companion by my side, although he is not much help, gardening is always a pleasure and never a chore.

New Old Stock (NOS) Whenever something NOS crosses our path, we always wonder how one buys a very expensive watch and then decides not to wear it. Especially watches that were bought in a time where it wasn’t nearly as popular as now. When they were bought for functionality and not as investments. The 16610LV is special enough on its own besides it being NOS. this was the 50th anniversary submariner and came with a Rolex green bezel inlay. It was presented in 2003 and produced until 2010. It was also a first time for some new features. It was the very first reference to feature the maxi plots and maxi hands. In the period of 7 years, some very slight alterations have been made that for many would not be noticeable at first glance. However, it does create quite a difference in rarity and thus value. There was a total of 5 different dials, 5 different bezels and 2 different cases. One with engraving in the rehaut and one without. Our V serial from 2009 is equipped with a mark 5 dial, B4 inlay and has its rehaut engraved. This all matches perfectly with what is standard for this period of time, confirming its originality. As we stated before, it is new old stock so it finds itself in full stickers on both case and bracelet. Something that, because of current policy, has become impossible to find. Are you looking for a potential investment or want to go back in time and have the unboxing experience of a life time? This stunner might be just perfect Warranty Information: We take pride in the quality and durability of our watches. As a testament to our commitment, each timepiece in our collection comes with a 2-Year Warranty on the Mechanical Movement. This warranty reflects our confidence in the reliability of our watches and offers you peace of mind as you embrace the heritage and style of a bygone era.
