The containers are indeed perfection! I really need to set aside time and energy to transform my patio next year. It isn't a pleasant place to sit and that needs to change.
I can be of no help on socks. I have size 3.5 feet which means the socks that fit my foot best are from the children's department.
I've walked past (and stopped to admire) 188 so many times without knowing its history or what lies within, so thank you. It's a beautiful building. And I can confirm Falke socks are the business - my go to every winter for cosy toes indoors and out!
Those pots are perfection. I exhort my friends to ‘go big’ or go home as per your ‘Five Minute’ book; it’s like a mantra to me now. The book would make an excellent present for Christmas; there’s something particularly wonderful about receiving a gardening book at this time of year.
As for socks - you need, NEED a trip to Italy, possibly Venice!! I went late November last year and socks were a big thing. And I learnt that Italians love a proper long sock - they only produce ankle socks for the tourists. Hope that helps!?😉

The paintings are beautiful😍
LUCKY you! Children, I find, get excellent socks in GOOD colours

Thank you Moira! You remind me to attempt a bit of self-promotion! X
I have started wearing long socks too-definitely over the knee. Tights can be annoying.
I had a brilliant History of Art teacher who made us learn about Joseph Wright of Derby, they are amazing paintings. X
They really are. The exhibition is small but perfectly formed and worth a visit
The exhibition sounds perfect. I’d been contemplating it, will now visit. And wonderful socks, what a great selection of colours.
In this department at least, the poor old men get a better selection!
I'm sad the Gallo socks were too much with shipping - stupid Brexit! - but glad you found alternatives.
Gorgeous pots!
