Bit more gardening today

I spent around four hours out in the back garden today, doesn’t look like a lot. But I did dig the bed to remove some of the ground ended roots. Also move a plant in another bed. Cut down and dig up the teasels which had fallen over again with the wind, have moved the root of them to another position as well, and replanted the foxgloves I dug out by the pampas plants. It was a nice day and I was glad I decided to concentrate on one area that dot about doing little bit here and there.




The plant with the frame is now at the back of that bed.
The teasel plants were huge, when I had finished I cut off the seed heads in case anyone wants them for flower arranging.


Just as I was finishing off the cats were chasing each other and Pandora shot up one of the trees,
This afternoon I was listening to some of the audio book and decided to try doing a decorated letter.
I went to see Sarah and David for a bit this evening and took a quick picture of the sky while I was getting my tea when I got home.
Watching Strike now!

  1. You’ve had a busy bank holiday then. Hope you don’t suffer with aches and pains after all the gardening. It does look nice though. Good idea sticking to one bit rather than flitting around. Looks like the cat is interested in the seed heads. It’ll be running around with loads hanging of it’s fur!
    After all that you still find time for drawing! I really like the letter. I’m looking forward to seeing it complete with some very straight calligraphy 😊
    Enjoy Strike although looking at the clock it’s almost finished now.

  2. It was good to get a bit done in the garden, haven’t been out there for a while, hopefully I won’t have too many after effects!
    I will try illuminated letters again, quite enjoyed it for a change,
    Strike was good.
