Got an 80s birthday tomorrow night. Just looking at costumes, had a laugh thinking about them days. It's our sons 40th and d.i.l 40th as well. All in one bash. Should be a funny night. Think,I'll just go as myself.?

Could you buy a Keith Richards' mask?
It's starting to flower all over... Just need the side and the top. It smells heavenly at night when it's fragrance is the strongest.

It makes me smile ever time I see or smell it.
But I need to hack it back after it has finished flowering provided of course the weebills have raised this brood.
JasmineGypsophola? Sp? I'm growing white and pink for the wife. Don't know where that's going????

Ah, that's much better. Ours is pure white too. It's been quite prolific this year, almost drowning out the honeysuckle where the blackbirds nest.This is so very fragrant. It will have been planted around the same time as the garden was first established and the fruit trees and the likes all planted which was back in the '70s, so identifying it will be nigh on impossible.
I took this earlier for my mother via my blog.

Until I came to Australia I hadn't seen Jasmine this big. It's actually hardy, not dying back each winter. There was a similar one in our last residence as well, but they was pure white. I just love the ones with the best fragrance. They remind me of my Grannie before her hayfever got too bad. In the north of the UK, Jasmine is a houseplant.
