Hi Catherine...your wisteria looks absolutely gorgeous bet it smells lovely too, I think it's wisteria sinensis alba..if the flowers were longer it would be the japanese one, aparently you can tell which is which by whether the stems twine clockwise or anti-clockwise...but dont ask me which one goes which way! Thanks for asking about my son...he's revising and going to his exams which is something, struggling with them because he has missed half the work by not being at school, but we had a letter this morning saying he has been disruptive twice during exams and we will have to pay for a isolation invigilator..aghhhh.. boys!! I cant wait for this year to finish!! The house sale is going absolutely nowhere either..wrong time to sell really..oh well never mind! hope your house is coming on ok..look forward to seeing some more pics when your broasdband is sorted out!
Glad to see you back with us! The wisteria looks fantastic. We have an old honeysuckle growing up the house by the back door & it smells wonderful every time I go in or out...of course the bumble bees love it too but I don't mind sharing.
Oh the frustrations of being without the internet.. it is akin to one's life support being shut off..well for me at least! It is lovely to hear of your Britain's garden collection. I had oodles of the stuff as a child, rockery, greenhouse, crazy paving, flower beds .. where did it all end up just when,I need it?? Hang on to yours as they are very costly to buy now.. just look at Ebay sales..
Not forgetting your wonderful wisteria..how beautiful!

Hi my name is Catherine and I am 57. I am a full time working Mum, married to Alan with Adam 29, Kate 27 and David 25. We live in the market town of Northallerton in North Yorkshire. My husband retired 18 months ago and at first seemed to think that being a 'house-husband' means being a TV critic!! He is now in a routine and can be officially called a 'house husband'. I am amazed at the amount of people like me who can fall for a piece of fabric or cup and saucer like a first love!! Blogging has opened my world to so many lovely and talented people and I am continually inspired to visit all the lovely places in the UK that they all live. I don't have time to update much plus I don't lead a very exciting life but the time I do get on the PC is spent reading about others.

Looks stunning - I have one two years old but no flowers yet - hope it looks like that one day!

Just catching up on what has been happening! Lovely climber here!
That really is a prize exhibit of wisteria. I hope you are now back up and running. x
