Quite a busy day

This morning it was a bit windy but dry so decided to get out into the front garden and get the back of the large bed tidied up. I did get right round n front of the rockery which isn’t in these pictures. After an hour I went in to make a drink and have a break but left the tools outside to continue in a while.


After a break I went out and started on the other side of that very untidy bush. Decided to prune the bush as well which was probably the hardest part! By no means perfect but looks like it has had some attention!


After lunch I thought I would go for a walk and made my was to the play park where you can catch a glimpse of the mere. The wind meat that it was very quiet!
The play park was very waterlogged so more of the temporary water that the mere, but still looks good!


I thin walk up the road alongside of the mere away from the town so it would be quiet. Managed to get another view of the mere en route.
And these pretty crocuses were bu the side of the path.
That was probably enough exercise for one day but in the end I helped Tina unblock the drains for an hour or so, which included going up and down stairs flushing loos as well as using bean poles as we didn’t have drain rods!
When Darren came home he went out and got us fish and chips which was very welcome!
Maybe a slightly quieter day tomorrow!

  1. I don’t know where you find all your energy and get up and go. I could certainly do with some! The garden looks a lot better after some attention. There’s just sooooo much of it. I don’t think I could muster the enthusiasm to even start it!
    Most people would have called it a day after the gardening, but you go on a trek. I quite like the pics with the temporary ponds. Gives some nice reflections.
    Drainage works too! There are no end to yours and the Rev’s talents. Life is never boring though.
    Mmmmmm fish and chips ☹️

  2. It is good to be working on the garden before the weeds get too much of a hold, although it is a never ending battle.
    Good to have a different walk and nice and quiet, not many people about, unlike the sea front.
    I think
    Tina will get some rods to make any future drain clearing easier.
