Just as I was giving up on both, I seem to have a dark-leaf chilli and an outdoors towel-tomato germinating -- very probably triggered off by the warmer weather a couple of days ago. Neither has as yet got to the seed-leaf stage, though, and given the return of yet more cold spring days I'm not sure how good their prognosis is.

I do have a couple of definite nasturtium shoots, though, which are more likely to be hardy. And I have two definite mesembryanthemums and think there may be more coming; they are just slow. I am bringing those in at night, though.




I am nearly at the end of the Gigi-story (and still no nearer to having a name for it) in that I have completed my 'extra' scene with Liane, or at least at Liane's dinner-party (she only gets a couple of lines, poor woman; Gaston needs to be definitely 'off' her, and yet I don't want to bash her unnecessarily. She is hard as nails and given to dramatisation, but then she needs to be -- after all Aunt Alicia has many of the same traits and was in the same profession...)

What I haven't 'discovered' yet is how I am actually going to get Gaston to make his canonical re-appearance on Gigi's doorstep the next morning. Read more... )
