You have a Fuchsia.

At 8:30 this morning I was out with the dogs for a wee run. 4kms, a little stop-start for ablutions (the dogs), but exercise nonetheless.

Hopefully means the cake consumption will be slightly less harmful... It's my mother-in-laws birthday today, so there's cake to be had, you see.

Mrs theWeir has done some great things to mark the occasion for her Mum, but one of the simplest, most effective has been this little clear glass tumbler filled with water and the flowers from a fuchsia we bought at the Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh a few months ago.

They were on the table when I got back from my run and have lit up the table all day.

The simplest things are sometimes the most effective.
