In my early morning amblings, I’ve passed houses with the TV on, some were huge, one house had mounted the TV directly on the Chimney breast so it dominated the room.

Another busy day, a good workout with Peter at yoga this morning, on the bus this afternoon taking my Good Lady into town in her wheelchair to do some shopping and I was working in the garden this evening till the light went, I dug the roots of the old Lavender hedge out and dug over the flower bed ready for planting, I need to get down the garden centre and get some more Lavender plants to create a new hedge.

Can you plant lavender where you have just dug the old ones out ??
Asking as we have one which is not doing well and I would like to replace it.

I believe we can, we'll find out when I plant the next ones, though they won't be going exactly where the original plants were, originally I planted 6 plants this time I'm only planting four, originally I put in to many plants too close together, I'm going to spread them out this time, I'm also not putting them so close to the path.

Smaller tv's are not easy to get nowadays. Everyone seems to be going for bigger is better kind of thing. The one we are getting is 56 inch, the same.size as the Last one we had.

When we were choosing I read a quote that "he has heard lots of people wishing they had got a bigger screen but never heard anyone wishing they had got a smaller one.
