This morning I converted the following posts to Block from Classic edit:
I gave The Camperdown Elm and Ache header pictures, and changed the category of the last two to Garden.
Later I carried out a little dead heading and weeding, and after lunch focussed on the delights I had noticed on my way round. These images all show titles in the gallery
This evening we all dined on tender roast lamb; crisp Yorkshire pudding and roast potatoes; crunchy carrots; firm cauliflower, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts; meaty gravy; mint sauce and redcurrant jelly, with which Jackie drank Hoegaarden and I finished the shiraz.
Your marvelous garden is blooming again, especially your glorious roses.
Thank you very much, Dolly. There will be far more roses blooming in a few days
I am looking forward to more photos of them, Derrick.
Love the picture of you communicating with the donkey. Lovely dinner and pictures.
Thanks very much, Pat. I wondered if anyone would think that was me. In fact it was Roy who lived there
Such lovely blooms. I so love wisteria and it doesn’t grow in my part of the world, sadly.
Thank you so much, Dale
You are so welcome!
The end to a perfect day! Good for you.
Thank you very much, Joy
Gorgeous garden photos! Delights, indeed!
Love the owl guarding the chair.
Love the tulip. Nature looks beautiful in all of it’s life-stages.
In the The Camperdown Elm header photo…I wonder if the donkey talked with his mouth full and what he said. Ha!
(((HUGS))) ❤️
Thank you very much, Carolyn X
The garden is looking just lovely, Derrick.
My goodness how busy you are converting Classic to Block.
I am still struggling to fid the perfect new themes for my sites. But if experience is anything to go by I will will end up going back and choosing the first to pique my interest!
Good luck with your struggle, Sue. Thank you very much
Like Sue, your hard work every day converting all your posts fills me with awe. Your garden is full of the most lovely plants and flowers!
Thank you so much, Clare
Such beautiful captures Derrick. ????????????????

I’ll have to choose the Philadelphus as my favourite Derrick … my Philadelphia cousins are now travelling back home …
A happy coincidence that I featured it on this day. Thanks very much, Ivor

I am amazed at how many different kinds of flowers you have in your garden. They are all beautiful!
Thank you very much, JoAnna
Digital gardening goes on hand in hand with the physical with equal tidiness and care.
Thank you so much, Uma
The garden is looking splendid. I admire many of your flowers, but I envy you the lilacs. If I could choose just one flower to add to our world here, that would be it. I miss them dearly.
Thank you very much, Linda
Such a delightful stroll through your garden 🙂
Thank you ve5y much, Rosaliene
I don’t know how you find the time to do as many things as you do!
Thanks a lot, John
It sounds like a very pleasant Sunday, Derrick. Your garden is just so beautiful.
Thank you very much, Merril
Inquisitive donkeys and a serene garden – yes you have a charmed life!
Thank you so much, GP
What are those clustered violet/purple flowers Derrick?
I think you mean Honesty, Arlene
Thank you!
I’m not sure which made my mouth water most, your luscious dinner description or those gorgeous photos of your burgeoning garden! Both were delightful!
Thank you so much, Jan
An enjoyable tour through the garden, Derrick. The lilacs caught my eye today. Our own ancient lilac has just started blooming.
Thank you very much, Lavinia
Beautiful garden pictures, Derrick, and i am glad you retrieved The Camperdown Elm post with the pics of the donkeys.
Thank you very much, Eugi
My pleasure, Derrick.
Delight, indeed. I can almost smell those lilacs.
Doesn’t everything look better in sunshine ☀️ particularly the wisteria
Indeed. Thank you very much, Sheree
Very nice! I think that donkey likes you! :>)
Thanks very much, Dwight
You are welcome.
