Wow, that looks like a big’un, fish. Definitely the crysalis of a caterpillar 
Actually, it looks to me like a moth pupa, but I have no idea what species. Keep an eye on it an see what crawls out – stick it in a jam jar with the lid on (holed for ventilation of course) then you’d be able to take a piccy of the emerged beasty and post it up._________________

Yes I’ve tried that site. Someone said a while ago to gather the dew in May from inside the ring and something will nice will happen, (like I would be beautiful) well I tried that – nothing happened! Oh well, I’ll just wait, they do do say that in time, probably years, they grow out, and yes, one is now growing out into the border, where it is killing the shrubs!!

Got home from the gym to find, in the two hrs i was out, a swath of my 5ft tall day lillys flatterned by a kid getting his ball, probibly 
they are mostly snapped and they were just flowering too.
I spent £60 on posts and trellise to keep nosey people and balls out
How did i know it’s illegal to skin a kid alive in the UK

For any of you in the South Wales / West area: This weekend the town of Usk holds its’ annual Gardens Open event. The town is famous for its’ floral displays, and regularly wins awards in both ‘Wales in Bloom’ and ‘Britain in Bloom’ competitions. The Gardens Open event has been featured on BBC’s Gardeners World, and many other programmes, and folks travel from far and wide to attend this event. For this weekend only local people open their private gardens for viewing; you purchase a ‘Gardens Passport’ at one of several well-signed points in the town, and receive in return a map of all the gardens you are then entitled to visit. Around 25-30 facinating gardens are open, some small, some big – including the magnificant Usk Castle, where if you’re very lucky yours truely and a bunch of other Guiders will mug you for your money but give you a cup of tea and a freshly-cooked welsh cake to apologise! On Sunday at the castle you will be able to catch a sneak preview of the forthcoming Son et Lumiere production celebrating the Owain Glendwr anniversary.
All money raised goes to local charity. If you like gardening, and fancy a day out in a beautiful and historic town, then I’ll see you there!
