h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I was only six......just started school theni remember it though!!!

Its funny how music, fashion or even a smell, can bring back a memory that happened years earlier

Ah! yes, I remember life before the dreaded tights were invented!!!! they were the days
Smudger

OH yes smell is a powerful trigger indeed.
That is part of why comfort foods are so powerful

evening folk....
tights... lol.... if you can imagine a robbers face with a stocking over it, well just think how your bum must look in tights...

i love the smell of lavender, always relaxes me....

evening all..i have some lovely scents in the garden,,,i have herbs in tubs,and they are relaxing.i have rosemary,which reminds me of london,because that was the first time i tried it,and i have mint,and lemon thyme,and lavender in the rockery.In the front gnt garden i have evening primrose....that smells wonderful!!!Best of all i like the smell of the grass when it's just rained..s all round!!

evening sal...

i like the smell of grass but it makes me sneeze... hay fever...

i have lavender and rosemary in tubs in the back garden.... rosemary signifies rememberance... so really it should remind you of something...

Smurfles you have many of the fragant plants I want to have outside my new windows

Fragrant ones too

Hi there everyone
I have herbs in my garden right by my bench were i sit in the evening ( weather permitting)and the honeysuckle has realy done well this year,its wonderfull out there anytime,but at night i find it so peacefull and relaxing.I love the smell of the sea too,and a baby thats just been bathed and powdered,,,,,

I love the smell of the garden just after a down pour of rain

We have a large bush in our garden, I dont know what it is, but it smell great after a soaking
Smudger,

freshly baked bread.... mmmmmmmmmm....

And fresh ground coffee!!!!!
just as an after thought,has anyone got a buglia(sp?) bush.They attract all the butterflies,my friend had one , and it was beautiful.
san,i love honeysuckle too,but don't have one planted yet.i lost the last one ,think it was in the wrong place!

Morning sal

I have a buddleir(?SP)friend from work gave me a cutting last year,its been lovely.i have gor climbing roses in with honeysuckle,so you can imagin the smell that i get,only thing is this year the snails like them too,did'nt know they could climb so high,just go out at night and pick them off,
xxSan

Oh how lovely Misty!

Hi abbi
How are you,

My daughter often buys me miniture roses in pots for the house on special occasions,but instead of throwing them away when thay get past their best i have been replanting them outside in my patio tubs,i now have several,diferent colours,they are all growing well and into larger sizes,it is a lovely memory kept going, every time i sit on my bench and look at them i can think back to the time Kerry gave them to me

evening folks....
san, sounds lovely hun... i'm not green fingered meself but do love the fragrance of flowers, not much good for my hayfever tho'...
still what's a sneeze now and then...

hope everyone is well out there... s all round....

Smudger,

Misty I love your memory garden idea
I wondered about those miniature roses they are so sweet,nice to know they can continue outside!

I have a mothers garden that has all things from the Moms.
Friendship garden has starts and favorites of friends.
Then there is a memorial garden for those whom have passed on.
Still waiting and collecting for my fairy garden.

OOPS! PM, didnt mean to frighten you
Just didnt want the thread to drift away

Abbi, speaking of roses, I have 4 large bushes to trim this year, coz they are far too high even taller than me
Smudger,
