Visits and shopping mercy errand!

This morning it was damp and had rained through the night so no gardening on the cards. Wasn’t visiting Be, this morning but went down to the shop early to get something for lunch. I walked round to see Sher at Botany Boutique and we rearranged my birthday treat as she had been going to take me to have afternoon tea on my birthday but I had ended up travelling to Peterborough. I love the multi coloured plant that is in the wallflower family, looking lovely now.

On the way back I saw two matching plant stands in the Greyhound charity shop window. Came home to have a think about it, and then took the trolley back to buy them!

After lunch Terry came to collect me nd I spent a couple of hours chatting to Jean. She gave me a gorgeous pair of earrings as a belated birthday gift.

This evening Tina was rushing about getting stuff for refreshments after the civic service tomorrow. She had no bunting of coronation so I went to Boyes but they were closed and no joy in the Coop and Heron so offered to try Tesco if one of them would drop me off and I would all back. Obviously took a stick as the leg was quite sore today. Tesco had sold out so I went into improvisation mode and got red, white and blue table clothes and some bags that had union jacks on! I had seen these collage pictures and Tesco on Monday but forgot to take photos, so remembered today.

I struggled a bit walking home so had a rest on a bench half way. Tina spotted me at the traffic lights as she was heading into the church and told me a female mallard duck was resting on out front lawn. I didn’t get too close to photograph her as didn’t want to frighten her so she went near the traffic!

So, feet up again and hope I will be mobile tomorrow!
