Walked to Sainsbury's quite early, via the post office to pick up a parcel I had missed, and did some shopping. Got two plastic saucers to go under the new ceramic pots we bought yesterday. Got a taxi home. Spent a good three hours in the back garden, planting up the two new pots and then pruning and tidying. The smaller pot was for a plant that Tina bought a little while ago, I put a few small bulbs in that we bought yesterday as well.

The sparrows popped onto the feeders occasionally while I was in the garden

Then a blackbird was hiding in the tree!

The second, larger pot, has the three lavender plants and a few bulbs. Our thinking was that in pots they can come with us when we have to move on!

Must have taken me an hour cutting up and bagging all the pruning, I filled four of the large garden bags! I was pretty tired when I came in and sat and listened to an audio book for a while. Last night I painted a couple of canvases with tester paint and may have a go at a painting in a bit.
