snaps of your little garden always look lovely.
That's always been a favorite part of London for me. I lived nearby just off Portobello Rd for over 20 years..location location location !)
Depressingly my little Mews flat has been tarted up and the whole house sold for over £2M lately. There were still working class families in that street when I was there..some who had bathtubs in the kitchen...now banished and the entire area homogenized into a middle class / nouveau riche enclave. So dull.

..they were just starting to bloom brilliantly, and the purple ones have been completely decapitated, due to a futile attempt to catch a pidgeon.
But still, she is a useful gardener normally, due to her hate of brambles.The downside is, anyone can walk into the house and be completely ignored unless they have a bag of groceries, in which case they are treated as a pidgeon....
