So that's what's been spoiling the sunflower!!!!! As lovely as the squirrels are, they are a nuisance.

The weather is still rubbish here. I'm staying in.

I'm not venturing out today at all. It's raining here, and cold too. I've just got a few bulbs to put in a couple of pots, all of my other garden jobs are complete. You got a good amount of work done in that half an hour Jan, nice!

Botanical gardens have only got the photography courses available atm. Very nice if you are into photography, good price and a great place to take photos! X

Thanks Janet, I've emailed to see what courses they offer. There's some really good advice on that site too. Morturn I will have a look at future learn later, thanks for your help.

Yes, I've had lots of help from the forum. Means a lot to me because I didn't grow up in Birmingham, I have no connections. So to meet up with the forum and be able to contact Brummies is something special to me. I'm just looking for things to do and meet new people, It's good to try new...

Thank you, I've sent them a message. Yes if not free, I'm not worried about paying as long as it's not £100's!!!!!!!

Hi all You are all so knowledgeable on here, does anyone know of any free courses? Thank you.

Yes, that fascinates me too! Particularly it's something I haven't got I see it as a gift!

Beautiful pics again. Always makes me feel cheery looking at the pics posted. Miserable day here weatherwise. A few leaves on the ground have reminded me that they will need sweeping up soon, another job!!!!!!

No, it was such a lovely sunny day and I just took.it all in. Lovely to spend time in a place where 9 of the Strawbridges are laid to rest and learn of other burials and the history of the cemetery. It's probably the only place in Birmingham that I have been in the 80's, 90"s 00's, to the...

It's nice how the stones are laid out to show the footprint of the chapel.

It's fascinated me to think of who he is and he is just under the chapel.

Oh there is a small wooden plaque in the corner of the chapel marker stones for Baskerville. It's difficult to get him exhumed as the vault where he remains under the chapel contains asbestos and obviously it would cost a fortune to remove.

Yes, I learned of the life of Baskerville today. I was astounded to learn that in today's day and age he has no final resting place. I know he wanted to be buried in unconsecrated ground, so his burial on his own land made sense. But with his prominence in Birmingham history as it is, it's...

Very good tour, very interesting. I didn't know Baskerville was under the chapel!!

Yes, it is around,£8 a ticket.

Thanks Lyn, I will let you know how it goes.

Just bought tickets for this event. Looking forward to learning more.
