Very special delivery!

This morning I went out fairly early to get lunch before the shopping delivery which was due between nine and ten. I went out into the garden to carry on with the edging of the long bed in the back garden. Quite hard going today as that part of the bed really was like concrete! I tied to hoe the bed as well as the edges so that if we do get rain it will at least go into the ground and not just lay n the top!

I decided I would use the edging tool to cut the roots of the ground elder around the pavers that lead up to the summer house after lunch.

Anya had messaged earlier in the week to ask if I would be around for a delivery this morning. I had asked Darren and Tina if there had been a delivery and they said no.mat about 1.30pm the bell went just as I was about to go out and clean the pavers up. It was the delivery, brought in person by Anya! Wow, what a lovely surprise. She had been on the road for hours as she had planned to arrive in time to take me out to lunch, but although we only had a couple of hours it was absolutely lovely.

She brought flowers which are now in two vases.

We chatted in the summer house for a bit while Anya had a welcome cuppa after her long journey then we went over to the cafe over the road to have tea and cake! And another selfie!

Another chat back here before she set off on the journey home, as I said, just a couple of hours but it seemed longer, her journey home wasn’t quite so bad as the traffic was lighter.

I went out into the garden to clean the pavers a bit and then put the tools away. I also had washing out so bought that in.

Best get to bed earlier tonight as we plan to go to the boot sale in the morning.
