I often put the pictures I'm adding in a folder on my desktop to make them easy to find and add at this stage, then file them afterwards. <br /><br />Then when you've added all your pictures, click 'Upload Image' and let Blogger do the rest!<br /><br />K xkristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14892467118097087057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731398893178184544.post-84436305445571775872011-06-22T20:23:17.216+01:002011-06-22T20:23:17.216+01:00I should think it's probably leased from the C...I should think it's probably leased from the Crown estates, Rachel. I was pleased to be able to go into the garden, so I won't begrudge him the house ... there's plenty of cafés in the park, so you won't go hungry for cake! <br />The scarecrow was smarter than me, Kristina. And there were some pretty little mini-scarecrows, too - more like corn dollies. One of those days when I really needed a camera. (It's not the photography bit that intimidates - though I'm rubbish at it - but I haven't a clue how to get the pictures onto the blog! Some day!)maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13955194101659665925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731398893178184544.post-55070554108855283792011-06-22T15:54:53.657+01:002011-06-22T15:54:53.657+01:00Oh must take G to see the scarecrow!

I love plaques on benches but sometimes they make me cry...it's sad to think that the people aren't there to enjoy the view they so loved any more.<br /><br />That garden is beautiful! Never knew it existed. Why was the Sultan of Brunei allowed to buy it I wonder?! It should be open to the public and have a wonderful cafe in it or something.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731398893178184544.post-44990394160469850602011-06-22T13:54:54.716+01:002011-06-22T13:54:54.716+01:00I don't know much about it, Toffeeapple, but I...I don't know much about it, Toffeeapple, but I googled it when I got home and the house apparently belongs to the Sultan of Brunei ... and I did wonder where he was that afternoon and why he wasn't out there enjoying his lilies. <br />It's such a beautiful hideaway, full of lilies and roses and benches tucked away in alcoves. Of course, for all I know it's full of visitors on a sunny afternoon and it isn't a secret at all - although I doubt it, because the entrance would be very easy to miss.<br />And if Kristina is reading this, I should add that it's very near the allotment garden - where there's a very chic scarecrow. I know she'll want one!maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13955194101659665925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731398893178184544.post-3889999241239302392011-06-22T13:10:29.882+01:002011-06-22T13:10:29.882+01:00We have a Peace Pagoda here and all around the are...We have a Peace Pagoda here and all around the area are remembrances of people who have passed on, though not always on benches, some are very inventive.<br /><br />What excitement, will you be telling us more about the secret garden?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
