Ruby's Manor !

Ruby outside her house, or should I say our house?

We'd just returned from a walk and I decided to take a few photos of my hanging baskets. Do you like them?

I did them myself. A combination of shop bought plants and plants grown from seed.

The baskets need some TLC and watering to keep them in this beautiful condition,

Note the rainbow in the top left hand corner, designed by me and coloured in by my wife. We live the rock and roll lifestyle in our house :)

What a beautiful view of your front door with Ruby! I love your hanging baskets! Great job on them and your shot. Will we get to see inside one day? I see your rainbow. LOL!

[Corinne]

Happy to see where Ruby lives ... and you too ;)
Nice baskets of flowers and bravo for the rainbow ! But what caught my eyes is the French writing of « beware of the dog » that could be translate by « pay attention to the dog »... ;)

[Beryl Lloyd]

A beautiful welcome home view of your front door and beautiful baskets

[Annie D]

@cocobella ha ha Corrnne good spot , we bought that in a DIY store in Perpignan, Porte d'Espagne many years ago (1998), we were on vacation in a gite in Latour-Bas-Elne

@beryl I thought the baskets would appeal to you Beryl

@marlboromaam thanks maggie, the rainbow is a sign of support for our National Health Service during the Covid-19 crisis

@phil_howcroft Nice way to show support! Is that slate on your roof or what?

[Phil Howcroft]

@marlboromaam tiles , slate is flat and smooth :)

[Corinne]

I know Perpignan very well Phill my in-laws lived in Prades and we used to spend one week of Hollidays there during the summer , nice area with a lot of beautiful places !

[Phil Howcroft]

@cocobella we went there 2 successive years staying in Latour-Bas-Elne, Pezanas and a remote gite in the mountains near Prunet-et-Belpuig :)

Well I can see Ruby lives there she has her mark on the door! I’m sure no one needs beware of dear Ruby!
Your hanging baskets are beautiful Phil, a credit to you & my word they need some attention to keep fresh & healthy so keep up with the watering!

[Sylvia du Toit]

Well done.

[Margo]

Wonderful entrance, lovely pots

[Casablanca]

Definitely Ruby's house - you're just the lodgers!

[Casablanca]

PS I like your flowers, nicely done.

[Dione Giorgio]

You have a beautiful house front. Ruby looks smaller than I thought she was and I noticed that also when you posted the shot of her looking at Claire's tummy. You did an excellent job with the flower baskets.

[FBailey]

Immaculate frontage Phil!

[Phil Howcroft]
