Very chilly again today with frozen bird baths again, I thought the wind had dropped first thing but it seemed to pick up again.
While I have been sorting I have been breaking down cardboard boxes and had a mountain of stuff so Tina and I took it up to the tip today and the went on to the Randa garden centre. Not a fancy place, some ramshackle greenhouses but lots of good stuff and plenty of healthy plants. I had wanted to get some veg plants but they won’t be in until next week. Did but quite a lot of perennials for the garden though, some were inside so I had to make space in the greenhouse and move some bird food around! Got two shrubs as well which will be fine outside and some compost and a great little planter!
I walked down to the post office before lunch, had to wait in a queue for about fifteen minutes which meant my non operation knee was really grumbling on the way home. Went straight home via a couple of shops. I watched a recorded program on the tv and then went off to the post office again as something else I had sold had been paid for. No queue this time so walked up to have a look at the sea.
It was pretty chilly and the sea was rough, but quite a few people around and sitting at picnic benches.
Not planning to do a lot this evening, I am sure I can find something to watch on the tv.
I can measure in metric now, although it took me a long time to start using it, but I always cook using pounds and ounces.
ReplyDeleteIt has been a very cold day today. It looked lovely through the window, nice blue skies and sunshine, but when I went outside I nearly froze! Can’t believe it was in the 20s last week!
Sounds like you’ve done a fair bit of walking today, so it was nice to go out for a trip in the car I bet. Looks a very nice tray of plants you have there, they look very healthy. I love the pot, it has a great finish on it.
The seas do look a bit rough in those pictures, but I bet it won’t stop the hordes descending on the Hornsea!
Enjoy a quiet evening.
I love that pot, not sure how that bubbly finish is done but very attractive. The plants there are healthy looking and very reasonably priced.
ReplyDeleteI have done a fair bit of walking with the couple of trips out, glad I went to look at the sea the second time.
