Mostly gardening

I haven’t been out at all today and have spent a good deal of time outside in the garden. The plant near the back door which has its buds in a sac and then becomes bells has opened and it is among the Christmas tree!

I started out the fron as the main bed was in need of some attention and that is the one that people notice as they pass the garden in the town.

I filled the garden cart and wanted to get to the garden bin, the path is still quite clear to the bin but the plants at the side meant I was getting attacked from all sides! So getting on with clearing that was the next priority.

I had the new plants that need putting out, also had some angels wings that I had grown from cuttings and a geranium that survived the winter. I removed some plants that were smothering the smaller one, hoed and weeded and then for the other plants in. Not a lot different to look at, but I know that it was quite a lot of work!

I had some bird food deliveries today so spent some time sorting it out and into containers.

Jean came to visit for. A short while and we had a chat and cuppa. She was very taken with my little sitting room and all the stuff I have in it!

I have more or less decided what I am taking tomorrow when Darren and I head back to Peterborough. Looking forward to spending time with Lee and Rebecca on Friday.

This little guy was on the pavers earlier.

 I got the hose out and have watered both gardens this evening, took me about an hour and a half which wasn’t bad going!
