[187] ... Oh lovely, you know, some nice big leaves for, flower arranging. [188] ... My husband puts these on the compost heap when he gets his eye on them. [189] I nursed one last year for Newark Show. [190] I thought oh you know you're always short of large leaves. [191] For the base. [192] So I was nurturing this one in the greenhouse. [193] And I went down one day. [194] It's supposed to be my greenhouse. [195] And it was missing. [196] [...] I said, what's happened to the plantain? [197] He said, ooh do you mean that weed?

[364] I'm going to start with the outline of [...] , from the garden. [365] Which has again been boiled. [366] ... I think it's a lovely light foliage isn't is? |

[385] You've put far I said I'm just following this recipe. [386] You know. [387] And he was right. [388] I did put far too much sugar in it cos it all exploded. |

| Unknown speaker (G3XPSUNK) |
[393] What happened then? |
| (PS1VR) |
[394] Erm. [395] Oh I had [...] then. [396] I've told you about grandchildren. [397] I've just had two presented to me in the last eight months. [398] I've got a granddaughter and a grandson. [399] [cough] The granddaughter I look after because my, my daugh youngest daughter's gone back to work. [400] And she's called Jordan. [401] Spelt J O R ... D A N. [402] And she, she's eight months old now. [403] You forget how many hands a baby has, don't you? [404] You know, you get out of practice, and there it starts. [405] She's found that my glasses didn't seem to be right. [406] So her hands were up and they were off before I knew where they were. [407] And then she's, you're trying to feed her and the, the dinner's all over the place. [408] So now we wrap her in a tea towel so you know her hands are under cover. [409] Erm [...] ... It's erm [...] I think. [410] I got it given to me so er if you think it's a different one you can tell me. [411] ... So when you get a lot of things given, you know, I never say no. [412] [laugh] but you don't always get the right name, do you? [413] ... Do she really did it on me [...] well it was yesterday I had her. [414] I was changing her nappy for her. [415] Well she started flopping along the floor on her back. [416] And you, you know she, she can go at some pace. [417] So I started changing her nappy for her and she decided she was going to take off. [418] It was like hanging on to a wriggly eel. [419] You know? |
| Unknown speaker (G3XPSUNK) | [laugh] |
| (PS1VR) |
[420] She was trying to move. [421] So the next time I thought, No madam you're on the settee on your changing mat, and er I've got you. [422] [laugh] ... And the other one Aaron. [423] A little boy. [424] He lives in London. [425] ... My eldest daughter she works down there. [426] And when she said she was going to have a baby, rather a surprise at the new year time. [427] So we said, well what would you, you know, can we get something? [428] Well they're living away. [429] What can we get you for the baby? [430] So she said, oh two bedside cabinets and a drop-leaf table. |
| Unknown speaker (G3XPSUNK) | [laugh] |

[431] So. [432] ... I says to her, well what you know what can you do with that? [433] Well you can help me to cope with him, she said, you know. [434] So she's got the two bedside cabinets but not the drop-leaf table. [435] Er [...] now this is grown in Calverton. [436] We have a small nursery there. [437] And he grows them in wind tunnels. [438] He hadn't got a big selection ... [cough] but I went down er ... I was going to use stocks. [439] [...] was going to use stocks and er ... oh gladioli that was it. [440] And when we went to the market they didn't have any on [...] as I say, Anna went to ... [...] and got her gladioli. [441] ... So Jord Jordan and I had a walk down to the mark the nursery yesterday morning. [442] Before it got too hot. [443] [laugh] ... [...] seven nurseries at Calverton.

[541] And erm ... when I came away again I brought some orchids with me. [542] And for an armful I paid thirty shillings. [543] ... I thought that was very [...] to have turned round [...] . [544] ... Lovely colours in these. [545] [...] . ... Some of them are. [546] ... It was lovely to see them growing in er ... Singapore. [547] And we had some friends there and one day one of them rang me up and she said, could, could we come quickly we've got a, a monitor lizard in the garden?

[554] [laugh] It was a tiny lizard but ... not er not that you would want to hit with a sweeping brush. [555] ... And while we were, while we were there we had some invitations to, to dine out with ... well it was my daughter's [...] and we went and had a meal with them ... and they were quite taken back by er ... they lived in this little [...] which originally I had thought was a ... was a er ... a poultry house.

[560] I couldn't see any clothes about anywhere. [561] Just a lot of furniture in there but there was nothing hung about you know. [562] And so er ... we had this meal which was curry. [563] Chicken curry. [564] And er ... it was lovely and we were enjoying it until ... I pulled out the whole chicken's head. |

| (PS1VR) |
[624] [...] Now you have to have what [...] a European style. [625] So we're going to finish this evening with a European style. [626] I have two margarine cartons in here. [627] ... [cough] And a Fuchsia which is called Superstar. [628] I just [...] plant [...] some people own. [629] And it just fills it in. [630] I think a plant rather than foliage or whatever. [631] So. [632] ... We're going to do a European hedgerow style. [633] ... But for the height [...] . [634] And the purple. [635] ... And it's a little bit different from other flowers. [636] This has the [...] from the top down, doesn't it. [637] I think the heat's got to the greenery. [638] Well it's, it looks like it's been cooking. [639] [laugh] ... [...] [cough] I'll scrape it. [640] ... I just have to [...] this crescent there. [641] [...] buy flowers you know. [642] By the time she gets to the den she's always got another [...] ready [...] . [643] You think, where's she got those from? [644] You know she didn't buy those while we were out. [645] ... [...] football. [646] ... [...] ... And this you know [cough] like this style you can make it small or large as you like, and you can come out to the sides as well. [647] Give it extra length. [648] It's based on the high [...] , and the verticals and you don't have a [...] point. [649] Where all your flowers come from the same point. [650] ... While we were at [...] we went down to er ... Oakham. [651] To a day school. [652] With two Danes come over from Belgium. [653] To show us how to do the hedgerow and the European round table design as well. [654] ... Well we thought, well you know, we c we can do a bit. [655] [laugh] ... I'm just thinking I've got these on the wrong horizontal scale. [656] ... I think this is the Connecticut King [...] ... I'm going to have to make a corner there. [657] ... Now it's very easy to do this, you know. [658] Don't be frightened to have a go at it. [659] I did er a day school. [660] Taught it myself, you know. [661] At er Woodroffe. [662] I started doing the teacher's cause because I thought [...] I'd like to teach. [663] And of course they closed all the night classes, didn't they? [664] Erm I think that one will [...] . [665] Now what I want to do is er ... I have to set this [...] you know and find a venue to go to. [666] But with all these grandchildren and what have you, I don't seem to have any time. [667] And camping [laugh] ... We've just come back from Cornwall and it was very wet. [668] ... [...] peninsula. [669] You've got the Atlantic on both sides and er ... it's lovely if you've got the weather, you know. [670] Really lovely. [671] But we didn't have the weather. [672] And in fact one nine o'clock back to the tent. [673] Got a tent [laugh] that we sit in and cook in. [674] And erm ... we got there and I says to my husband I says, oh, I says er, are you sure that tent's safe? [675] You know it's ... battling about a bit. [676] So erm ... blue [...] again because I [...] er a bit short on blue for the kaleidoscope. [677] Er it's not the [...] is it? |
| Unknown speaker (G3XPSUNK) | [...] |
| (PS1VR) |
[678] Yes. [679] I didn't want to say that. [680] [laugh] This is from the cottage garden again. [681] From you know round [...] . [682] Oh short of blue, could, could I have a little bit? [683] ... Erm ... and now getting back to Cornwall. [684] [...] sayin saying to my husband says, well I don't think the tent sounds very safe you know. [685] It keeps flapping about and that. [686] I thought, oh dear, so we got to bed by this time, and we lay, and we just couldn't get to sleep for the noise the tent was making. [687] So he says, might be a good idea t to you know put the van in front of the tent to break the wind. [688] So I was laid out in the back of the van on the bed and he's driving down this field to put the tent, because it had little er bits you know where it's marked out for you to camp, and I'm driving around in the back saying, yes you've, you've just missed the fence there and you know [...] . [689] I can't see where we're going because I didn't have my glasses on. [690] So it was quite [...] there you know. [691] Erm [...] |
| Unknown speaker (G3XPSUNK) |
[692] Yes. |
| (PS1VR) |
[693] I got it from I bought it at er Blooms. [694] In Norfolk. [695] ... So I'll keep the yellows together. [696] And another theme of the European is the grouping of the colours. [697] [...] I don't know how I'm going to [...] because I've got some peculiar colours. [698] [laugh] ... But I'm having the yellow. [699] I think that is the nearest I could get to the orange. [700] You know to be the opposite to the purple. [701] If you get what I mean. [702] [laugh] As it's opposite in the ... on the colour wheel, isn't it? [703] Now these are little ones I've grown in the greenhouse myself. [704] They haven't been fed properly, so they're not very big. [705] But it's a sort of purply pink so ... they'll go down here. [706] ... And you know to cut between the [...] on these. [707] Yes. [708] We'll start to take the water out. [709] Anna didn't tell you and she's the expert on flower arrangement. [710] ... And I think that ties in nicely with the pink in the [...] . [711] ... Some more yellow. [712] It's [...] . [713] And I like these ... you know [...] you still want to come in. [714] I don't want to go out to much to the side there. [715] ... I [...] always [...] later. [716] ... Now as I was picking the ivy for this, I've got a cherry a standard cherry tree ... and the starlings get on my fence and they queue up to get on that cherry tree, you know you can hear them chattering away. [717] If you go out shoving them off they go up on to the roof of the house, and as soon as you turn your back they're back again. [718] Well these had got, these cherries had been growing where they couldn't see them you know. [719] [...] nice [...] of cherries this morning. [720] [laugh] But I don't think they were quite ready yet. [721] You know they were nice and red but er ... these birds and I've, I've got them covered, but it's quite tall so I can't keep it all covered. [722] But they can beat me to it every time. [723] And they weren't the least bit frightened. [724] ... I'll just put a little bit wispy in the back ... because when I was in Hans' class, the best triangle I ever did was lovely, really pleased with it and it collapsed didn't it? [725] Because I hadn't put [...] in the back. [726] [laugh] A little bit of the juniper [...] shape and texture. [727] ... Going into there. [728] ... The only colour's the blue ... [...] you know but it's er ... I always make so [...] noise with anybody's paper. [729] [...] isn't it. [730] ... Something else you don't see much of these days isn't it?
