Hi Chris....hope you're still around! My x popei is still thriving. :)

Photo is not worthwhile, it now looks about the same way you sent it to me, which was the at the end of June this year.

OMFG. That is a monster!!!! I am happy to say, that the plant you sent me did not die, it is still very small, but doing fine. :) let me point out, for others, I stupidly pulled the whole plant out of its soil, thinking I would remove a dead leaf..

Hold on, "black" isn't a colour.

I think he means that when you have a pure species (non-hybrid), the question arises: Is this plant the product of self-pollination, or are mother and father two individual plants.

This is really terrible news...I absolutely loved his violent and insane humor. b****** had to go! There were times when Rik and I were writing together when we almost died laughing. They were some of the most carefree stupid days I ever had, and I feel privileged to have shared them with him. And now he's died for real. Without me. Selfish b a s t a r d. —Ade Edmondson

Yes. I wish I could draw so terribly. :)

gosh I know!! Last year I went to visit Aidan's nursery, can you believe it, it was the first and only CP-nursery I have ever visited. Gosh, you are all sooo lucky over there... http://dobrador.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/464171-Where-do-astronauts-hang-out_64389_46417_1.jpg :)

Thanks Paul, have been to Scotland countless times, first time 1991, and I keep going back... :)

Thanks Stephen, have organized everything, will stay in a youth hostel on Skye. :)

Hi gang, end of September my parents, relatives in Croydon, and I will travel to Scotland, the main destination being Skye. We'll be a group of 8 people, 7 adults and one teenager. How risky do you think it is just walking up to the guesthouses/B&B/self-caterings and asking if they have space for 8 people? Are there many accommodation-options on Skye? Cheers. :)

Yes, but I have reached the limit as to how much I can expand..next year I will continue to expand... :)

Really lovely...I like the 'it's a trap!', the frog really looks like admiral ackbar: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ae1ZRrrjs8c/Th0rz7ZvogI/AAAAAAAAANU/QM2WW-LNZXY/s1600/original.jpg
