You mean Lily, Perki? I bought 3 plugs for £9.99 and gifted them to Grey Parrott PhilippaS. She has green fingers and she told me they were all flowering about a month ago! She named the area after my ex's surname. Well, one year's wait is not bad!
The camera hasn't arrived. Was sitting next to the window half a day. Yes, those cameras are very complicated - and I have to buy lenses. It comes with one, but not a brilliant one. Enough for me to photo my flowers. I will need to fashion a black card and walk around Gadgetz to find some decent lenses.
The insurance company of my previous car kept sending me urgent email, asking me to reinstate my Direct Debit. I had nobody to ask, so I emailed back, explaining that the car was written off 2nd December and they effected the DD for December around 20th. The car was sold before mid December. I googled and read that if I notified DVLA that the car was a write off and that it had been sold to a company via insurance company, I would get a refund for road tax and they would have notify my insurance company and any remaining insurance payment cancelled.
I emailed them that I actually phoned a director's staff, asking her if she could help me to stay on as a customer the day before I had chosen a car to buy. She said yes. on the 14th this month, at about 10am, I called her again and she transferred me to the sales and there a girl quoted me £2000 plus which was the same as the cheque they gave me for the car. She insisted that there was no leeway, so I stopped the call. The car dealership found an insurance company for us for a week and my son drove the car to work.
The insurance company emailed me back after all this explanation that I must agree to their proposition within 7 days and once it's effected, nothing could be reversed. The suggest that I pay £162 plus to cover the remaining premium to 21 May when the insurance policy lapses, which is more or less the amount I would have to pay if I had not cancelled the DD. In the end, I wrote a yet another review of the company online. They cancelled the policy straight away. I immediately removed my latest review and left the previous good one intact. I emailed them about this and they were polite. What a lot of stress. I had quite a bit of to and fro on social media with them before I took my final move.
I had another source of stress. My car insurance company arranged a hired car for us. Initially, they said for 6 days and then they allowed us to use it for 14 days. A man in the car hire showed my son how to use the car. I was outside as my buggy was bigger than the back of the car! I'm not joking. Son asked me which card to use and I was surprised that he needed to use a card. All I heard was that enter your pin and sign here. Then later, I got an agreement online quoting that £111 had been taken out of my account. I thought it was a bit odd and that it could be for possible damage to the car or lack of petrol when we returned the car. I phoned them and no phone call or reply. In the end, I had to review the company online. After that, a person called and told me it was refunded.
I do hope this is the end of all my car sagas!
There was something pinky in the John Innes No 3 and it seemed to be flesh surrounding a piece of hone! I will add something to it. I have already done one pot, but the water drained very slowly. I have now decided to use various pots to put my various snowdrops inside, but I will saw off all the bottoms so the snowdrops can free range for nutrients in the garden which is clay, clay and clay although I had layered a thick layer of horse manure on top. That way, I can keep the names of the snowdrops. In each pot, I will put 3 labels, with one labelled one facing the side of the pot so that sunshine can't fade the writing. In between, I will put some hellebores so that these snowdrops aren't too close to each other. Next year if I'm still alive, I will slit the flowers and cross pollinate them.
