AN ENJOYABLE VISIT TO THE GARDEN CENTRE!

-







There are many enjoyable things which people can do on a lovely sunny Sunday, and one of the most popular, especially for garden enthusiasts, can be a visit to a garden centre.  And so it was that I and several members of my family  decided to visit this relatively small, but still varied garden centre on a recent Sunday.
In short time we were at the garden centre, which, as you can see from the pictures, was well-presented and welcoming to the visitor. The Centre has a good, but not vast display of different plants, flowers, and food and gardening products on sale. It also has a nice cafe, which the thirsty and peckish visitor can resort to replenish their energy, which might have been depleted by both the intense heat of the Sun and the gentle and effortless exertion of walking around the Centre and its environs.


We saw and examined a range of plants and flowers, and garden water features, and a few pond displays. However, it being late July, we were not minded to buy new annual flowers this late in the year, as we felt we would not realise their full potential and splendour before they fall victims to the Fall and Winter seasons in the next few months.

 We did, however, saw some garden water features which did evoked quite a bit of excitement, and one of which I have resolved to purchase in due course, to add some more tranquility and calm to our garden.

One of the most enjoyable aspect of our visit to this garden centre, was to experience and share with other visitors, the euphoric ambience which tends to envelope people when the Sun is shining and we are blessed with clear blue skies. When people's normally stern and unsmiling faces are more likely to break into a warm smile when you greet them, and when they might even initiate such greeting. A time when you do not get the feeling that each human is an isolated being enveloped in his/her bubble and who only interacts with the other bubbles when they have to do so.
So, yes, we have a lovely and enjoyable visit to the garden centre.

THE ISRAEL/PALESTINIAN WAR AND HOW ISRAEL'S LATEST ATROCITY MIGHT HAVE SEALED ITS EVENTUAL DEFEAT! P.4.

   It is unlikely that things were ever getting better. But, at least the Palestinians were alive, they had their homes, their roads, water, electricity, the basic requirements for having at least a basic life.  They had more freedom of movement in their 'reservations' than they have now, with the storm troopers crawling over and around them as so many wasps.  So, yes, it is likely that, for the majority of Palestinians who are being forced to pay the price the Zionist Israeli State has decided to extract from them, the attack of 7th October might be considered to have been a tactical mistake by Hamas and the other Resistance Fighters. And yet, it could be the case that the overall and eventual outcome of the attack for the Palestinian people will be a positive one. It has broken the then impasse, the stalemate in progressing the realisation of a sovereign and viable Palestinian State.  It has forced the nations and international organisations, ordinary people of the world to t

JUST A THOUGHT - ARE PRISONS A SYMBOL OF A PUNITIVE SOCIETY? THE END....

By increasing the number of statutes by which citizens can be criminalised. So as to provide a sufficient supply of inmates for the prison population.   As we have seen, for example, in the United States of America. The so-called most advanced country in the world.   But also undoubtedly, probably the most retrograde one, when it comes to the manufacturing of criminal laws, and administration of 'crime and punishment.'  Since, not only does it make having more prisoners as a necessity, in order to keep the private companies holding and processing them, and the 'law enforcement departments, in business.  But it also encourages corruption amongst all those involved in the crime and punishment industry, through the quest to generate income and profits. Objectives which they seek to achieve by brutalising inmates and increasing their prospects for having to pursing a criminal career.  By ensuring that inmates being discharged from the prison industry are l

THE ISRAEL/PALESTINIAN WAR AND HOW ISRAEL'S LATEST ATROCITY MIGHT HAVE SEALED ITS EVENTUAL DEFEAT! P.1

  So, what are my thoughts about Hamas' unprecedented attack on parts of Israel, which has resulted in hundreds of men, women and children, some of them soldiers, being killed and thousands of Israelis becoming shocked and traumatised as they have probably never experienced before? And what are my thoughts about Israel's Zionist government's brutal and merciless counter-attack on, not just Hamas' fighters and military, but on all Palestinians and their social, economic and essential infrastructures in both Gaza and the West Bank? The egg did not come 'out of nowhere', and neither did the chicken. Everything of substance and significance has a context which can help us to define and understand it more than we could or would be able to do, without that context.  This principle also applies to Hamas' attack on Israel, just as how it applies to Israel's subsequent and continuing attack on the Palestinians. And so it is that Hamas' attack on Israel was a

THE EMMANUEL CHURCH SERVICE - GODISM, RELIGION AND THE END OF RATIONALITY?

All or many things are indeed 'bright and beautiful', but did the lord god really made them all? And what about the things which are not 'bright and beautiful'? So, there I was on this dour but still refreshing Sunday, with the heavens or sky enveloped in grey clouds, as far as the seeing eye could see, as the saying goes, when the BBC's Radio 4 Morning Service came on. As much as I am an evolutionist, I still could not help but being spiritually stirred by the stirring force of the 'religious' song which the congregation - from The Emmanuel Church, in Manchester, United Kingdom - began to sing.  You might imagine, wrongly, that this was a case of god getting through to a non-believer, but that is not really the case. It was really more a matter of a person who had a background of having to go to Church and had been indoctrinated throughout early childhood. A person in whom the 'fear of god and fear of hell' had been instilled during th
