Spent the morning indoors apart from going to the post box and local shop. Did one or two chores and then realised that it hadn't rained for a while, not even had any dew, and the bonsai trees would probably be very dry. I managed to get them all watered and some of the bigger trees, one of the bonsai trees was beginning to wilt, as they were indeed very dry. I am hoping I gave it a drink in time.
Darren and Tina went off to a SciFi convention quite early, but Tina was back by about 2 pm as she had arranged to meet a friend at Whitby garden centre. I hitched a lift along and had a good wander round while they settled down for a good natter. What a great place for a garden centre, quite some view!

It was misty today, but you could obviously see miles on a clear day. There were some great planters. 

I think my brother would like the scooter, as he had one many years ago. They also had a good selection of water fountains.

This magnolia tree, 'Susan' was a great colour. Talking of unusual magnolias, I have ordered two standard ones in a variety called 'Sunrise'. I brought some pots ready for them earlier this week.

They have an Old Barn area with lots of interesting stuff in.

I bought the great planter in the centre of the picture because I fell in love with it. I won't use it until we have a new garden to play with.

Another view in the barn.

I also bought a small cast metal spider.

Been a beautiful day and a very bright sun as it went down.

Seeing Brian and Hazel tomorrow and I am looking forward to that, and it is due to be the best day of the year so far.
