Phase 2.

I keep missing Alice.
Apart from the obvious fact that she's "gone"; I miss her memory and ability to select a Blip when I couldn't decide.
On this occasion galloping senility precludes me remembering which Sunday it was I went to Garden Wise's Orchid day.
It was exceedingly interesting, with a HUGE "but" . . . .
. . . the queue for repotting was so long that, by the time I neared the head of the queue he had never stopped, with his next lecture scheduled for 10 minutes time and the poor lad hadn't either lunched OR had a "Pit Stop" so I slunk off with sufficient knowledge & Orchid compost to "DiY"; or, more accurately, DiM.
Poor thing has has a bit of neglect of late, but refuses to give up the ghost, having new both shoots & roots.
SO:-
Phase 1 was yesterday's re-pot. Half done by virtue of it conveniently leaping out of the pot en route to Dumfries, so there was no need to unpot it.
