Hope everything goes well for you Lillieb, it's a shame you have to travel so far, that'll be tiring.
I've got 'sticky willy' cleavers in my garden too, they just seem to grow from under my ornamental quince but as you say they're easy to pull out. I saw a chef on 'Britain's Best Dish' the other night foraging for them to add to a meal he was making - not sure I'd fancy them but then I looked online & found a recipe for 'cleavers & aubergine bake'! ;D
I wouldn't worry about forget-me-nots taking over, I love them, you could just clear a bit of space amongst them for the obelisks for now.

Birthday wishes from me too. I would send you some sticky willy but we had it for dinner

Chemo is never nice so hope it is over with soon.
When I start I will have a round trip of about 90 miles to the hospital. Looks like the Tesco petrol vouchers will be handy.
My grandson had chemo from 3 years old for leukaemia but is fine now.

I'll get around to it eventually

Thanks SP - hope you enjoyed your sticky willy meal did you have custard on it??? ;D

So glad you hear about your grandson's recovery, such a worry when it is little one's affected. Your chemo journey sounds awful are you able to get transport? I have now finished

so it's the radiotherapy next, every day for 6wks - a doddle after chemo I'm told!

Have a good evening.
