Think I am beaten!

This morning I wa going to walk to Woods to get some double sided tape to try using on the greenhouse which was proving very difficult.I didn’t have to go that far as the bike shop was open and he sells lots of DIY stuff. Got the tape and fancied a cup of Super Macho tea at Bemora so called in on the way back.
The church looked lovely although it was a grey, damp morning.
I used the tape successfully on one piece and then didn’t position it right and as I lifted in a a layer of the ‘glass’ lifted!
Turns out it was a protective layer but there was no mention of removing it in the instructions. I was then in a quandary as I had already stuck some down. Walked up to see Sher and had a drink and natter with her. Decided to remove the protective layer and managed that quite well. But trying to continue with following the instructions and found that it was as I thought, impossible! I don’t like to give up on nothing but think this one has beaten me. Put me in a very low mood!
I had a delivery on bird food supplies so took it down to the store and took some pictures in the garden as the beds are looking pretty.


When I was preparing dinner the pair of ducks came into the garden. Took a photo with the phone from the kitchen window, duck under the bird table and squirrel on it if you look closely. I went out but they were flying off as I got outside!
Tina had ordered the display case for the greenhouse for me, and to add insult to injury it is a flat pack. Needless to say it hasn’t been opened!
As I was feeling a bit off colour I chanced going for a walk through the park, a miserable evening but a slow walk was good for me.
Finally I will add a different photo of the robin who visited the feeder today.

  1. The super macho tea looks nice. Never had any myself….yet. I would say I’m glad you got some tape while you were out, but I don’t think I am glad you got it really as it’s proved to be so much trouble. All I can say is I’m sure you’ll sort it in the end.
    The church always looks nice. It helps that it is on a slope up from the street, which is a great angle to get without laying on your stomach in wet grass!
    Looking on the bright side the garden looks beautiful. The fruits of your efforts are paying off. Even the local ducks and squirrels like it. I can see them both in the pic.
    Good idea not opening todays parcel. One step at a time.
    A bit of fresh air is a good idea when you’re feeling a bit down, as long as it doesn’t bugger your leg up! Sounds like it helped you a bit.
    I like the pic of the robin feeding. Lovely, and cheery too.

  2. I can usually shake off a mood and I do feel brighter but still not inclined to look at the greenhouse anytime soon!
    The garden is pretty at the moment and quite a few buds still to open.
