I guess great minds think alike.

One of them even asked me a few months ago to promise that I wouldn't stop dyeing my hair and looking after my eyebrows because I live in the country!! Funny enough when I was sitting in the hairdressers a couple of weeks ago, all I was thinking is "I could be getting on with those raised beds now, this is such a waste of time" - actually, note to self, must make appointment for eyebrows, am going to see said friend in a couple of weeks :-)Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14920872750020792663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812046665751901579.post-8436715464955111452012-01-28T16:05:56.787+00:002012-01-28T16:05:56.787+00:00Well they all have to dress properly for the camer...Well they all have to dress properly for the cameras!

In particular I try to avoid the "top keeps pulling away from the trousers at the back" phenomena. Probably why I enjoy being up there in the winter so much, long coats keep me cost and together and hide the dreaful old clothes underneath!Janet/Plantaliscioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15605580157193047780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812046665751901579.post-57892347221008833482012-01-28T12:35:44.876+00:002012-01-28T12:35:44.876+00:00I wear old clothes that I wouldn't be seen out...I wear old clothes that I wouldn't be seen outside of the front door in. Nothing elegant about me...<br />I sometimes thought Sarah Raven's coats and other clothes were a bit odd. P would like to dress like Monty in the garden but is still working on the look. Seemingly Monty is often asked where he gets his gardening clothes.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06999513105724635810noreply@blogger.com
